Fillings in brief

A filling means removing the decayed tissue and closing the cavity with a filling material. The aim is to restore the shape and chewing function of the tooth and stop the decay from progressing.

Decay that is caught early can be treated with a small filling. If decay progresses and reaches the nerve, root canal treatment may be needed, which is why regular check-ups matter.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about fillings

Does having a filling hurt?

Shallow cavities often need no anaesthetic. For deep decay a local anaesthetic is given, so you usually feel no pain during the procedure.

When can I eat after a filling?

A composite filling is hardened during the procedure. If you had an anaesthetic, you can eat once it has worn off.

How long does a filling last?

It depends on the size of the filling, the position of the tooth and your oral care. With regular check-ups, worn fillings are replaced in time.

Should I replace my old silver (amalgam) fillings?

A sound filling with no problems does not always need replacing just because of its colour. Fillings that are cracked, have open edges or decay underneath are assessed at the examination.

Why is my tooth sensitive after a filling?

Sensitivity to cold for a few days is possible, especially after deep fillings. If it gets worse or does not settle, call the clinic.

Can children have fillings?

Yes. Decay in baby teeth should also be treated; for children, fillings are planned by our paediatric dentist.
