Dental Fillings in Hartford
Dental fillings are a common and effective way to treat cavities caused by tooth decay. By repairing the affected area early, fillings prevent harmful bacteria from spreading deeper into the tooth’s pulp, protecting your overall oral health and preserving your natural tooth structure.
You may need a filling for any of the following reasons:
- You have chipped teeth.
- There is space between two teeth.
- Cracked/broken teeth.
- Decayed or worn teeth.
Dental Filling Procedure
TThis procedure's length will vary depending on how many surfaces and teeth are being treated. Local anesthesia is applied so that you can be comfortable through the process. Once the filling material is placed, it is shaped to fit the surface of the tooth, to help maintain the function and shape.
