At Dhwanil Dental Clinic we know that patients of all ages experience tooth decay. The condition may arise from poor hygiene habits, improper nutrition, or genetics. Whatever the cause, tooth decay can affect the function and shape of a tooth.
Fortunately, we can restore that function and appearance with tooth restorations or “fillings”. If you experience tooth sensitivity or pain, let our office know. We’ll examine your mouth for instances of tooth decay or other damage. From there, we’ll work with you to determine the best course of action.
While there is a range of filling types, most Lincoln, we offer these three options:
Gold fillings are durable and incredibly strong. However, they can be more expensive than the other options—which hinders their popularity.
Composite fillings may be the most aesthetically pleasing option. This material is tooth-colored and can even be matched to the existing tooth. They offer great support and versatility. For example, composites are used to fill chipped teeth—not just cavities. Composite resin is a great option for many people
Glass Ionomer fillings are made from acrylic and fluoroaluminosilicate, a component of glass. This type of filling is very strong and most Glass often used in people with a lot of decay in the part of the tooth that extends below the gum. It is also used for filling baby teeth.
Other filling materials include ceramics fillings and are used in particular instances. If you'd like more details on those materials, just let our support staff know and we will answer your questions.
Of course, the tooth filling you choose will depend on your budget and degree of decay or tooth damage. If you have questions, we are always available to provide further information.
The environment of Dhwanil Dental Clinic is warm and soothing with courteous staff member.
