Dental Fillings At Niddrie Dental Clinic

Dealing with a sensitive tooth or a chip can become problematic over time. It can affect your confidence and your ability to eat or speak normally. That’s why Niddrie Dental Clinic offer dental fillings as a simple measure to restore your tooth’s strength and health. 

Our dental fillings don’t just restore your teeth, but they also help prevent further decay or damage, to keep you smiling for longer. For a smile that you feel confident in, book a consultation with our team today.

A dental filling is a dental procedure that repairs teeth by filling the cavity with a material. It helps to restore your tooth’s normal function, shape and health by preventing further damage. With the tooth filled, you’ll experience less pain and sensitivity.

Your teeth shouldn’t cause problems with your speech, eating or speaking. If you’re not sure whether you need a dental filling, the best thing to do is consult one of our professionals for advice and support. However, if you experience any of the following, you probably need a dental filling: 

• Sharp pain when biting down
• Sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures (i.e. food or drink)
• A visible hole or pit in your tooth
• A rough, chipped or broken tooth.

If left untreated, your tooth’s health can worsen and lead to other issues. The best thing to do is get it treated quickly with our dental fillings.

Every day, the foods we eat expose our teeth to harmful substances that, over time, can lead to decay and damage. To minimize these effects, it’s essential to maintain a consistent oral hygiene routine, including brushing twice a day for at least three minutes. Regular dental check-ups are also important to catch potential issues early.

There’s nothing to worry about when it comes to your dental filling procedure. It’s quick and easy, but it’s normal to be nervous. That’s why we’ve broken down the process for you. 

• Numbing The Area: We don’t want you to experience any discomfort, so we’ll numb the area to ensure you don’t feel a thing.

• Cleaning: We’ll gently clean the tooth and remove any visible decay in the area. 

• Filling: We’ll insert the filling material, ensuring the colour matches and that it’s shaped to your natural tooth. Then, using a special blue light, we’ll harden the material.

• Polishing: Once hardened, we’ll check your bite and adjust it so it feels natural, polishing thoroughly to ensure your filling doesn’t feel sharp on your tongue. You won’t even know it’s there!

After the filling, you may experience some sensitivity, but this should subside within a day or two.
