Cavity can be very unsightly and confidence-lowering, especially if they’re on the front set of teeth. They can also cause sensitivity which makes eating very unpleasant. Tooth-coloured fillings are here to help with that. Tooth-coloured fillings are used to fill up the gaps caused by bacteria, preventing any further damage as well as eliminating your sensitivity. Their colour will also make your teeth look like they were never damaged in the first place. The filling process starts with an anaesthetic to numb the area of the tooth to be filled. A drill, abrasion instrument or laser is used to clean out decay, followed by another cleanup of bacteria and debris. If the area to be filled is close to the root, liner of glass ionomer, composite resin, or other material is used to protect the nerve. The tooth is then filled, finished and polished.
