Fillings are essential to restore teeth affected by decay, wear, or damage, ensuring that your smile stays healthy and strong. Our practice offers a range of filling options, including traditional silver amalgam fillings, modern tooth-coloured options, and composite materials that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Why you might need filling
There are several reasons why a filling might be required:
The filling process
We ensure your comfort throughout the process with the use of local anaesthetic, numbing the area where the filling will be placed. Our dentists take great care to remove any decayed or damaged portions of the tooth before applying the filling material. This procedure is typically quick and effective, and most patients experience minimal discomfort afterwards.

Benefits of fillings
Aftercare and maintaining your fillings
Once your filling is placed, it’s essential to take care of it by maintaining good oral hygiene and visiting the dentist regularly. While fillings are designed to last, they may need replacement over time due to wear. Regular check-ups will ensure that your fillings are performing effectively.
We take the welfare of our patients extremely seriously, and we will always make clinical decisions that put your long-term medical well-being first.
