A dental filling is a restorative treatment that removes tooth decay and fills a cavity. Fillings are used to repair cracked, broken, or damaged teeth. This saves and protects your teeth from further damage.
The dentist will perform a complete examination of your teeth and mouth and before be the treatment begins a local anesthetic is applied to numb your teeth, tongue, gums and surrounding area. In some cases nitrous oxide (sedation dentistry) is given to patients will dental phobia. The decayed parts of the tooth are drilled out first, the tooth cleansed and the filling material applied.
Fillings are made from various types of materials, which include:
Amalgam
Composite Resin
Ionomers
Gold
Ceramics
Amalgam is the easiest and cheapest material. However, the mercury content in amalgam is quite controversial. Composite resins are tooth-colored fillings that look natural. Ionomers are also tooth-colored fillings that are used for small cavities. Gold is quite pricey and involves a longer procedure. Ceramics are also tooth-colored fillings that are costly because they require a special lab and hi-tech equipment to process the restorations.
Your dentist will determine which type of material is best for you. Sit down for a consultation and discuss your concerns and preferences.
The price of fillings depends on the type of material, the technology used and other factors. A ballpark figure would be USD $20.89 (CAD $26.90; AUD $27.43; NZD $28.77; UK £16.01).
