Things to Know Before You get a Tooth Filling
If you have a dental cavity, you will need a tooth filling treatment. When food particles get stuck between the teeth, they become a breeding ground for bacteria to grow. When bacteria break down this food, they release acids that will cause tooth decay.
If you are looking for dental fillings in Vaughan, we can help. However, here are some things you should know before you get a tooth filling.
Types of Fillings
• Metal fillings – Gold or silver amalgam fillings are resistant to wear and tear. They are generally used for molars or teeth that are not visible. That’s because these fillings are quite prominently visible.
• Composite resins – Composite resins are prepared by mixing the ingredients and putting the solution directly on the cavity. The solution is allowed to harden there. Composite resins are ideal for smaller cavities or cracks.
• Porcelain fillings – Also called as onlays or inlays, porcelain fillings are matched to the colour of your tooth and are bonded on. These fillings last longer and generally cover most of the tooth.
Our dental professionals in Vaughan can help you choose the right fillings.
Temporary Fillings
If the treatment requires more than one sitting or if the filling is expected to take more time, your dentist might do a temporary filling of your teeth and ask you to come later. The temporary filling will reduce the pain and prevent food from sticking into the cavity. You will be called for another session wherein we will remove the temporary filling and replace it with a permanent one.
Will it Hurt?
A little amount of pain and discomfort is expected because your dentist will clean the tooth decay and do the filling. After the procedure, you might experience pain while eating or when the teeth contact each other. If you feel a lot of discomfort, your dentist will prescribe some pain relief medications to help reduce the pain.
How Does a Dental Filling Feel?
Initially after the procedure, you will experience a slight discomfort since the dental filling is alien to the surrounding teeth, gums and the entire mouth. However, within a couple of days, you will start feeling normal. Talk to our dentist if you feel that the filling is too high or is causing trouble when you eat or talk.
Post-Procedure Care
To prevent future dental cavities and to help the dental filling last longer, it is imperative that you follow very good oral hygiene. It is also advisable to avoid sugary foods and foods that are too hard or too sticky.
