A Brief Insight into Tooth Fillings at Shellharbour Dentists

We know how much you value your natural teeth. That’s why tooth fillings offer you one of the quickest, pain-free, and highly effective general dentistry services from us. Many patients also opt for it to avoid tooth extraction. 

The tooth filling process at Shellharbour Dentists is gentle, precise, and completed entirely in just one appointment.

  1. Comprehensive Examination   

    We begin with a thorough inspection and X-ray evaluation to determine the presence/extent of decay and even structural damage. This helps us to devise an accurate treatment plan that targets only the affected tooth tissue.

  2. Minimal Removal 

    Before starting the procedure, we gently numb the area using a topical anaesthetic gel and a fine needle. We then remove any decay while conserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible. This ensures you’re comfortable throughout for a perfect and lasting restoration.

  3. Isolation & Bonding   

    If decay is present, Shellharbour Dentists will remove it and prepare it for applying a high-quality bonding agent. It ensures excellent adhesion between the tooth and the restorative material.

  4. Layering of Tooth Fillings 

    Shellharbour Dentists gently and carefully apply a layer of composite resin into the cavity, curing each layer with a specialised light. The light hardens the material and assures long-term durability.

  5. Finishing & Polishing 

    After our dentists examine your bite alignment, the filled tooth is refined, smoothed, and polished to match the natural tone, sheen, and contour of your natural teeth surrounding it.

    The final restoration results never fail to amaze you with how they not only look lifelike but also feel comfortable when biting and chewing. Book your appointment now!
