Tooth Fillings in Bandra

What are Dental Fillings?

Dental fillings are a simple treatment used to fix small holes or weak spots in a tooth. These problems usually happen because of cavities, old fillings wearing out, or minor tooth damage.

During the treatment, the weak part of the tooth is removed and the space is sealed with a filling material. This seals the tooth and helps it work normally again. Fillings also help prevent the problem from getting bigger and reduce discomfort while eating or drinking.

Dental fillings are commonly done in one visit and let you use your tooth comfortably the same day.

What are Dental Fillings?

Types of Dental Filling

Dental fillings are available in different materials. Each type is used based on tooth condition, location, and personal preference.

Composite Filling

Composite Filling

Composite fillings are tooth-coloured and blend well with natural teeth. They are commonly used for front teeth or visible areas. This filling helps restore the tooth while keeping a natural look. It is a popular choice for patients who want a clean and neat appearance.

Silver Filling

Silver Filling

Silver fillings, also called amalgam fillings, are strong and long-lasting. They are usually placed on back teeth where chewing pressure is higher. These fillings can handle daily wear and are often chosen for their durability.

Gold Filling

Gold Filling

Gold fillings are known for their strength and long life. They fit well and do not wear down easily. Some patients prefer gold fillings because they last many years and stay stable over time.

What Should You Expect During a Dental Filling Procedure?

Dental filling is a simple and commonly done treatment. The steps are planned to fix the tooth properly and make sure it feels comfortable after the procedure.

Book a Dental Filling Appointment
  1. Tooth Examination

    We first examine the tooth to understand the problem. Patients usually come in with pain, sensitivity, or discoloration. If needed, an X-ray is taken to see how deep the cavity is.

  2. X-ray and Choosing the Filling Material

    The X-ray helps us check whether the infection has reached the inner part of the tooth. If it has, a root canal may be needed. If not, a dental filling is enough. We then discuss the filling material that suits your tooth, such as composite or silver.

  3. Removal of Decay

    The decayed part of the tooth is carefully removed using dental tools. This step cleans the tooth completely and prepares it for the filling.

  4. Placing the Filling Material

    Once the tooth is clean, the filling material is placed into the space. For some fillings, a mould or impression may be taken. The filling is shaped to match the natural tooth.

  5. Setting the Filling

    The filling is allowed to harden. For tooth-coloured fillings, a special light is used to set the material. We guide you on how long to wait before eating.

  6. Bite Check and Adjustment

    After the filling sets, we check your bite using special paper. If the filling feels high, small adjustments are made so chewing feels normal.

  7. Polishing and Finishing

    Finally, the filled tooth is polished to make it smooth and comfortable. This completes the treatment, and you can use your tooth normally again.

Before & After Care for Dental Fillings

Before the Procedure

  • Maintain good oral hygiene – Brush and floss properly to keep the area clean before your appointment.
  • Avoid very hard or sticky foods a few hours before treatment to prevent additional tooth damage.
  • Share your dental history – Inform the dentist about any sensitivity, medication, or allergies you may have.
  • Eat beforehand if you expect local anesthesia, so you don’t have to eat while your mouth feels numb.

After the Procedure

  • Avoid eating until numbness wears off to prevent accidental biting of your cheeks or tongue.
  • Stick to soft foods for the first 24 hours—soups, rice, dal, khichdi, smoothies, etc.
  • Avoid very hot, cold, or hard foods for a day, especially after composite fillings.
  • Mild sensitivity is normal for a few days, especially to temperature changes.
  • Practice gentle brushing and flossing around the treated tooth to keep it clean.
  • Avoid chewing on the filled tooth if you have a temporary filling, until your final appointment.

Dental Fillings FAQs

How long do fillings last in teeth?
Dental fillings usually last between 5 to 10 years. With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, some fillings can last even longer.
Is dental filling a painful procedure?
No, dental filling is usually not painful. The area is numbed before the treatment, so you may only feel slight pressure, not pain.
Can I eat after a filling?
You can eat after the filling, but it’s best to wait for the numbness to wear off. Soft foods are recommended for the first few hours.
What are indirect fillings?
Indirect fillings are made outside the mouth and then fixed onto the tooth. They are often used when the tooth damage is larger and needs extra strength.
Can a dental filling fall off?
Yes, a filling can come loose due to wear, biting hard food, or decay around it. Regular dental visits help detect such issues early.
Which type of filling is best for teeth?
The best filling depends on the tooth position and damage. Tooth-coloured fillings are common for visible teeth, while stronger fillings are used for back teeth.
