Tooth Fillings
Tooth Fillings Brisbane, Carina
When decay occurs our dentists use smile-saving tooth-coloured fillings to seal and repair the tooth.
Your dentist will numb the area, if suitable. Your comfort is of the utmost importance to our team, with pain-free dentistry being our goal. Once the composite layers are applied, we will shape and polish the filling to blend in with the tooth.
Risks and Recovery
Possible risks include:
- Temporary sensitivity to hot, cold or pressure after placement
- Gum irritation near the treated tooth
- Risk of filling fracture or wear over time
- Rare chance of needing further treatment, such as a crown or root canal, if the
- tooth is more compromised than expected
Recovery considerations:
- Most patients return to normal activities immediately
- Mild sensitivity usually settles within a few days
- Avoiding very hard or sticky foods can help protect new fillings
- Regular check-ups support long-term success of the restoration
