Dental fillings

Think of them as little fixes for your teeth. When there is a hole or cavity in the tooth, the dentist can place a dental filling to fill the hole and prevent the development of cavities. Fillings are made of different materials such as gray amalgam, composite materials or ceramic and are placed on the tooth after the hole has been cleaned and prepared. They not only restore the shape and function of the tooth, but can also protect against further damage.
