Dental fillings are a common treatment used to repair teeth affected by decay, small fractures or other minor damage. By removing the damaged area and replacing it with a durable filling material, your dentist can restore the tooth’s shape and function while helping prevent further deterioration.
We use tooth-coloured filling materials where appropriate to create a discreet and natural-looking result. Your dentist will assess the affected tooth, explain your treatment options and recommend the most suitable type of filling based on your dental health and individual needs.
