At My Dental, we’re here to support your goals. It starts with personalised care tailored to your unique smile.
What is Dental Fillings?
Dental fillings are treatments used to repair teeth that have been damaged by cavities, decay, or minor cracks. When bacteria break down the enamel and create a hole in the tooth, a dentist removes the decayed portion and fills the space with a strong, protective material. This stops the decay from spreading deeper and restores the tooth’s strength and shape.
Fillings not only repair the damaged area but also help you chew comfortably, maintain proper bite alignment, and preserve the natural appearance of your smile. Without a filling, even a small cavity can grow and lead to pain, infection, or the need for more complex treatments like root canals or crowns.
By sealing and reinforcing the tooth, dental fillings play an essential role in keeping your oral health stable and preventing future problems.

What are dental fillings used for?
Dental fillings repair teeth damaged by cavities, decay, or small fractures, restoring strength and preventing further issues.
Does getting a dental filling hurt?
Most patients feel little to no discomfort. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, making the procedure comfortable.
How long does a dental filling last?
Depending on the material and your oral habits, fillings can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years or even longer with proper care.
What types of filling materials are available?
Common options include composite (tooth-colored), amalgam, glass ionomer, and ceramic. Your dentist will recommend the best choice for your tooth.
How long does the procedure take?
A dental filling typically takes about 20–45 minutes, depending on the size and location of the cavity.
How do I know if I need a filling?
Signs include tooth sensitivity, pain when chewing, visible holes, or dark spots. However, some cavities have no symptoms — regular checkups help catch them early.
Can a filling fall out?
Yes, though it’s uncommon. If a filling becomes loose or falls out, contact the clinic right away to have it replaced and prevent further decay.
