Frequently
Asked Questions
How do I know if I need a dental filling?
Common signs you might need a filling include toothache or sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods, visible dark spots or discoloration on a tooth, pain when biting or chewing, or a chipped or cracked tooth. If you experience any of these symptoms, schedule an appointment for dental filling in Etobicoke for a proper diagnosis.
Will getting a filling hurt?
Dental fillings are typically performed with local anesthesia to minimize discomfort. You may feel some pressure during the procedure, but you shouldn’t experience any significant pain. We’ll discuss pain management options with you to ensure your comfort throughout the appointment.
How long do dental fillings last?
The lifespan of a dental filling depends on the material used, the size of the cavity, and your oral hygiene habits. With proper care, composite fillings can last 5-7 years, while amalgam fillings can last 10-15 years or longer.
How do I care for my teeth after getting a filling?
Maintain good oral hygiene practices like brushing twice daily, flossing once daily, and attending regular dental checkups. Avoid chewing on very hard foods or using the filled tooth to open objects. Following these tips will help your fillings last longer.
