Dental fillings are a common dental procedure used to treat cavities and restore damaged teeth. Cavities, also known as dental caries or tooth decay, can cause pain and discomfort and, if left untreated, can lead to more serious oral health issues. In this guide, we will explore dental fillings services, including what dental fillings are, the types available, the procedure, and the benefits they offer.
A temporary filling is a short-term solution in dentistry, used to relieve pain, protect a damaged tooth, and maintain functionality until a permanent restoration can be applied.
Glass Ionomer Cement (GIC) is a dental material used for cavity fillings, sealing teeth, and orthodontic bonding. It has good adhesion and releases fluoride for preventive purposes.
These are preferred for their natural look, composed of resin and glass for aesthetics. They’re versatile for filling cavities and cosmetic work, bond well, require less tooth removal, and use curing light.
