Fillings in Duncanville, TX
Dental fillings are used to restore fractured or broken teeth as well as fill cavities in teeth. You should make an appointment for a consultation at Our Dental Group if you have a pain or a broken tooth to determine whether you require a filling. If you have a cavity or need a filling for a fractured tooth, the dentist will be able to tell. Most frequently, a filling is required when a cavity has developed on a tooth surface as a result of dental decay. A filling will prevent the cavity from worsening. It might hurt, and an abscess might develop. This could result in more serious issues including bone loss. A filling prevents tooth decay and heals the tooth.
What to Expect
Dr. will first do a complete oral examination on you at Precision Dental. If you have a cavity brought on by tooth decay, they will explain the filling process to you and suggest the best filling material for you. Your specific needs will determine the type of filling.
Dental sealants are most often recommended for children.
- They are frequently recommended for the permanent molars as soon as they come in, usually between the ages of 6 and 12 years.
- We may also recommend dental sealants for adult patients whose teeth are prone to decay or have not been restored or suffered from decay in the past.
- We can apply dental sealants in just one short, comfortable visit to our practice.
Do you Need a Dental Filling?
A toothache may be the most common sign that you might need a tooth filling. But, sensitivity to certain temperatures, to pressure, or too sweet foods are also indicators that you need a filling. Finally, if you experience sudden or throbbing pain when biting or chewing, you also might need a tooth filling.
