A cavity forms as a result of tooth decay, appearing as a hole in your tooth. It is crucial to address cavities promptly to prevent them from worsening, which can lead to more invasive treatments like root canals or tooth extractions. Dental fillings are essential for maintaining dental health by halting the progression of decay, repairing the damaged tooth, restoring its normal function and enhancing its appearance. The process of getting a dental filling involves carefully removing the decayed portion of the tooth and filling the resulting space with a specialized dental material. In addition to treating cavities, dental fillings are also effective at repairing broken or cracked teeth, as well as for addressing wear caused tooth grinding or nail biting.

Dental fillings provide numerous benefits for preserving oral health and addressing issues like cavities and minor tooth damage. One of their primary advantages is the ability to stop the progression of tooth decay. By carefully removing the decayed portion of the tooth and sealing the cavity with specialized filling materials, such as composite resin, dentists can prevent further decay.

Additionally, dental fillings offer structural reinforcement to affected teeth, restoring their integrity and preventing more extensive damage. They also help restore normal tooth function and bite alignment, as the durable materials used in fillings can withstand the forces exerted during chewing and biting.

Modern advancements in dental materials enable the use of tooth colour match fillings, which provide a cosmetically appealing solution that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. Redtree Dental offers various options, including white porcelain fillings as well as gold alloy inlays and onlays for patients requiring more extensive restoration. Your Redtree Dental dentist will discuss these material options with you to determine the best choice for your individual needs and preferences.

Overall, dental fillings are essential for maintaining oral health, preventing further complications and preserving both the function and aesthetics of your smile. The Redtree Dental team is here to help you restore your smile!
