What is tooth filling?

The teeth fillings in qatar are made from various materials and the doctor will choose the best one for you will depend on your requirements. The materials used for fillings are all strong enough to restore the full integrity of the affected tooth whilst maintaining the original shape and function of that tooth. The point of a root canal is to remove all the infected, inflamed and dead pulp tissue in the tooth. This also involves cleaning the inside of the tooth to rid it of possible bacteria and finally fill up the now hollow root canals. Once a tooth has been root canal treated, a permanent white filling, inlay or crown should be done to restore the tooth completely and strengthen it.

The different types of Dental fillings

Amalgam fillings

Amalgam fillings are a durable and inexpensive mix of metals like silver, tin, copper, and mercury. They were commonly used in back teeth due to their dark color. However, we no longer use amalgam fillings due to the mercury content, which is hazardous to human health.

Composite fillings

These white fillings are a combination of resin and silica. They are very durable and are used as the filling of choice in most cases. They are tooth-coloured and therefore give a natural appearance. They bond directly to the tooth structure, helping to restore both function and aesthetics effectively.

Ionomer fillings

This type of dental filling can be used in certain cases where other filling types are less suitable. They are tooth-coloured and are often enriched with tiny levels of fluoride which release slowly over time to further protect the tooth from decay. Ideal for milk teeth or as temporary fillings.

Ceramic fillings

An upgrade on the traditional gold fillings. They are custom made and are fitted on the second appointment, but are cheaper than gold and are aesthetically superb, once in place they can hardly be distinguished from a natural tooth. They are made of porcelain and maintain their colour for life.

Why Dental filling treatement is important?

A decayed tooth cannot be repaired by the body and will eventually cause extreme pain, may lead to abscess formations or even affect the jawbone, if left unchecked. A tooth can be saved to further serve its function of either biting or chewing.An appropriate filling chosen for the location and bite pressure can last for a very long time with no further problems. Untreated tooth decay may require more expensive dental treatments like a root canal or tooth extraction. Teeth fillings procedure is a fast treatment, often only requiring a visit or two.

How Dental Filling is done?

The teeth with be physically examined and x-rays may be taken to determine the extent of the damage
A local anaesthetic is used to numb the affected tooth.
The decayed tooth structure is removed and cleaned using a drill, laser or air abrasion instrument depending on the location of the cavity.
Once the tooth is cleaned, the area is prepared for the filling.
The selected type of filling is carefully placed into the tooth in layers.
If the filling requires “curing” by a special light, this is applied after each layer.
When the filling is in place, any excess filling material is trimmed off to give the tooth its original shape and thefilling is then polished to make it feel as smooth as a normal tooth.
Teeth fillings are a common dental procedure in our clinic. Our highly skilled dentists will ensure this procedure is quick, efficient and painless.
