Natural Colored Fillings to Restore Teeth with Our Voorhees Dentist

Fillings help avoid worsening of tooth decay and in turn avoid its associated problems like abscess, pain and bone loss.

A material used to fill a cavity after the removal of tooth decay is called a filling. Fillings can be made from many types of material like amalgam, composite resins, gold, ceramics, etc. Amalgam is the easiest to be used, fastest and least costly material that could be used for filling.

Our dentist in Voorhees first numbs the area around the tooth to be filled with a local anesthetic. Then the decayed area is removed using a drill or laser or air abrasion as per your preference and the extent of the decay. After removal of the decay, space is prepared for filling by cleaning the cavity of bacteria and debris. Finally, the filling is placed and the area is finished and polished.
