Tooth Fillings in Dubbo
Minimally Invasive Dentistry
If you need tooth fillings in Dubbo then we can help. Dental fillings are necessary when a cavity has been found or a tooth is decayed or cracked.
Here at Advanced Dental Care in NSW, our Dubbo dentist uses composite or white fillings as an alternative to the old-style silver amalgam fillings which raised concerns because they contained mercury.
The composite material is made from a mixture of resin and crushed particles of glass which can be coloured to match the shade of your teeth.
What is the procedure for dental fillings in Dubbo?
The cavity is filled with a thin layer of composite material and then a curing light is shone on it to harden it. This process is repeated several times until the cavity is full. The dentist then trims off any excess material for an even finish and shapes and polishes the dental filling. Your bite is then checked for comfort and functionality.
Benefits of white fillings
• White fillings blend seamlessly into your smile
• Composite dental fillings can be used on front and back teeth
• Very little drilling is required, making fillings less of an invasive procedure
• They look natural
• Restorations like these can usually be completed in a single visit
