Your healthy smile is important to everyone at the Church Wellesley Dental Centre. If you have cavities or decay, our Toronto team might recommend a dental filling to help you maintain your oral health.
Why might I need fillings?
Fillings are recommended for treating teeth with dental decay. If a tooth is cracked or damaged, a dental filling might be the best way to fix it.
Old or damaged filling might need to be replaced with a new filling.
What types of fillings do we use?
We use bonded fillings made of a white composite resin that is similar in colour to your tooth. We use this material so that it blends naturally with your smile.
Dental Fillings in Toronto: How does the procedure work?
First our dentist will identify and remove the decay in the affected tooth. Next, they will apply a bonding solution to the area and add the composite filling material. A high-intensity blue light is used to harden the filling in only a few seconds.
Your dentist will then check to ensure the filling’s shape fits your bite and will make any necessary adjustments.
