Dental Fillings Toronto

Need a dental filling in Toronto? At 2000 Yonge Dental , we offer modern, tooth-colored fillings to restore your smile. Fillings are a dental procedure designed to repair teeth damaged by decay, cracks, or wear. Thanks to advancements in dental materials, your filling can look and feel just like your natural tooth.

Tooth-Colored Composite Restorations

We use mercury-free composite fillings that perfectly match the color of your teeth. These modern fillings offer several advantages:

  • They can be bonded directly to your enamel for a strong, secure fit.
  • They require less removal of your natural tooth structure.
  • They are typically smaller than traditional metal fillings.
  • They provide a seamless, natural-looking match to your tooth enamel.

What to Expect During Your Dental Filling Procedure

Cavity Preparation

First, your dentist will carefully remove any existing decay and shape the cavity to prepare it for the filling.

Applying the Composite Resin Filling

Next, the composite resin filling material is applied and then hardened using a special curing light. Finally, the filling is polished to ensure it blends smoothly with the natural shape of your tooth. Your dentist in Toronto will make sure you're comfortable during the entire process.

When Inlays or Onlays Are Recommended

In some situations, if the cavity is too large for a standard filling, your dentist might recommend an inlay or onlay (a partial crown). These restorations are designed to replace a more significant portion of the tooth structure. An impression of your tooth will be taken, and the inlay or onlay will be custom-made in a dental laboratory. The final placement of the inlay or onlay will take place during a second appointment at 2000 Yonge Dental.

Maintaining Your Dental Fillings

The Importance of Regular Check-ups

Dental fillings don't last forever, so regular check-ups are essential. Fillings can develop cracks or wear down over time due to chewing. Your dentist will monitor the condition of your fillings during routine exams and recommend replacement when necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Dental Fillings

Do tooth-colored fillings look natural?

Yes, composite fillings are designed to closely match the color of your natural teeth, providing a seamless and aesthetically pleasing restoration.
