At Christine L Mai, DDS PC, we offer dental filling services to restore the health and functionality of your teeth. Dental fillings are a common treatment for repairing teeth damaged by cavities or minor fractures. Our experienced team utilizes the latest materials and techniques to ensure effective and long-lasting results.
Importance of Dental Fillings
Dental fillings play a vital role in treating tooth decay and preserving the structural integrity of your teeth. When a cavity is left untreated, it can progress and lead to more severe dental problems, such as tooth infections or even tooth loss. Dental fillings help prevent further decay and restore the affected tooth to its normal function.
Benefits of Dental Fillings
Dental fillings offer several advantages, including:
- Restored function: Fillings allow you to chew and speak comfortably by filling in the areas of decay or damage.
- Protection against further decay: Filling a cavity prevents bacteria from spreading and causing more extensive damage to the tooth.
- Aesthetically pleasing: Our tooth-colored composite fillings blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, providing a natural and attractive appearance.
- Preservation of tooth structure: Dental fillings help to preserve the remaining healthy tooth structure, preventing the need for more extensive treatments such as dental crowns or root canals.
Caring for Your Fillings
To ensure the longevity of your dental fillings, it is important to maintain proper oral hygiene habits, including brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and scheduling regular dental check-ups. Our dental team will provide you with thorough aftercare instructions and offer personalized advice on maintaining the health and longevity of your dental fillings.
