Teeth Filling

At Panorama Medical Centre, our hygienists and dentists go beyond sparkling teeth during your scale and polish.

Prevention is Key: Keep Your Natural Smile Bright.

Don't let tooth decay steal your smile!

Our dental fillings do double duty: they stop decay in its tracks and restore your teeth’s natural beauty.

We use cutting-edge materials and techniques to create fillings that blend flawlessly, so you can smile with confidence. But fillings aren’t just about looks! They also provide essential strength to your weakened tooth, letting you eat, speak, and smile freely without worry.

Types of Dental Fillings

Different patients have unique needs, and the choice of filling material can significantly affect the outcome:

Composite Fillings: Perfectly mimicking the color and texture of your natural teeth, composite fillings are versatile and blend invisibly with your existing tooth structure. They bond directly to your tooth, ensuring a secure and lasting fix.

Amalgam or Silver Fillings: Known for their durability, these silver-colored fillings are often preferred for their longevity, especially in molars where chewing pressure is intense.

Gold Fillings: Marrying aesthetics with strength, gold fillings are both visually pleasing and incredibly durable, making them a popular choice for those seeking the best of both worlds.

Benefits of Dental Fillings

Stops Tooth Decay: By filling cavities, you prevent further deterioration of the affected tooth.

Restores Tooth Function: Filling a damaged tooth brings back its strength, making daily activities like chewing much easier.

Prevents Further Damage: Unattended cavities can grow, leading to more severe dental issues. Fillings act as a protective barrier.

Enhances Aesthetics: Modern fillings are designed to match the color of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless look.
Long-lasting Solution: With proper care, dental fillings can last many years, offering enduring benefits for your oral health.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it normal for my tooth to feel sensitive after getting a filling?

It’s not uncommon to experience sensitivity to hot, cold, sweet, or pressure after getting a dental filling, but this should subside within a few days to weeks. If the sensitivity persists, contact your dentist.

Can dental fillings be whitened like natural teeth?

No, fillings don’t respond to whitening treatments like natural teeth do. If you’re planning to whiten your teeth, it’s advisable to do so before getting a new filling so that your dentist can match the filling to your whitened tooth shade.

What should I do if my dental filling falls out?

If your filling falls out, it’s essential to contact your dentist as soon as possible. Keep the area clean and avoid eating hard or sticky foods that might damage the exposed tooth. Your dentist will guide you on the next steps and likely schedule a quick appointment.

Are there any alternatives to dental fillings for treating cavities?

Dental fillings are the most common treatment for cavities. However, if the decay is extensive, alternatives like crowns or inlays may be suggested. In cases of very deep decay, a root canal might be required. It’s best to consult with your dentist about the most appropriate treatment for your specific condition.
