Dental Fillings in Espanola
Fixing Small Problems Before They Grow
Cavities happen. And when they do, a filling is the quickest and most straightforward way to stop the decay and protect your tooth. At Espanola Dental Centre, we use tooth-coloured composite fillings that blend in naturally with your smile.
The process is fast, gentle, and designed to keep you comfortable — whether it’s your first filling or just time to replace an old one.
When Is A Filling Needed?
We may recommend a filling if you have:
A cavity caused by tooth decay
A chipped or worn tooth
Old fillings that are breaking down
Sensitivity to cold, sweet, or pressure
Sometimes you’ll feel symptoms like pain or sensitivity. Other times, we’ll spot a cavity during a checkup or X-ray before it causes discomfort.
What To Expect During The Procedure
Getting a filling is a simple appointment. First, we numb the area to keep you comfortable. Then we clean out the decayed portion of the tooth, shape the space, and apply the filling material in layers. A special light hardens each layer, and we finish by polishing the surface to match your bite.
Most fillings take about 30–60 minutes — and you can get back to your day right after.
Why Tooth-Coloured Composite?
We use composite material because it’s strong, durable, and matches the shade of your natural tooth. It bonds directly to the tooth structure, which helps preserve more of your healthy enamel. And it blends in — so no one will know it’s there.
Keeping Up With Checkups
Regular exams help us catch small problems early, so you may only need a small filling instead of a larger restoration later. We’ll always walk you through your options so you can make an informed decision.
