FAQs about Dental Fillings
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a dental filling?
A dental filling is a material used to restore the function and integrity of a tooth affected by decay or damage. At South Beach Dental, we use composite resin fillings that match your natural tooth color. The process involves removing decayed tissue, cleaning the cavity, and filling it to prevent further damage. Fillings restore both function and aesthetics, helping you maintain a healthy smile.
How long do dental fillings last?
The longevity of dental fillings depends on the material used and how well they are cared for. Composite resin fillings typically last 5 to 10 years but can last longer with proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups. At South Beach Dental, we offer durable fillings designed to withstand daily wear and tear, ensuring long-lasting results.
Will a dental filling hurt?
At South Beach Dental, we prioritize patient comfort. During the filling process, we numb the area to ensure you feel no pain. You may feel some pressure, but the procedure is generally pain-free. Afterward, it’s normal to experience mild discomfort, but this usually subsides quickly.
What are composite fillings?
Composite fillings are tooth-colored materials made from resin and ceramic. They are popular because they blend naturally with your teeth, unlike traditional metal fillings. At South Beach Dental, we use composite fillings for their aesthetic and functional benefits, ensuring that your smile looks and feels natural.
How do I know if I need a filling?
Signs you may need a filling include tooth sensitivity, pain when biting, visible holes or dark spots, or chipped teeth. If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, visit South Beach Dental for a thorough examination. Our dentists will assess the issue and determine if a filling is the best solution.
Can a filling fall out?
Fillings can become loose or fall out due to wear, decay around the filling, or trauma to the tooth. If this happens, contact South Beach Dental immediately. We can replace the filling and prevent further damage to the tooth. Regular check-ups help ensure that your fillings stay intact.
How do I care for my dental fillings?
Proper oral hygiene is essential to maintaining the health of your fillings. Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, floss daily, and visit South Beach Dental regularly for check-ups. Avoid hard or sticky foods that can dislodge fillings. Our team will guide you on the best care practices to extend the life of your fillings.
What if my filling causes sensitivity?
It’s common to experience temporary sensitivity after a filling, especially to hot, cold, or sweet foods. This typically resolves within a few weeks. If sensitivity persists, contact South Beach Dental, and we will assess whether adjustments to the filling are needed to alleviate discomfort.
Can I replace my old metal fillings with composite fillings?
Yes, replacing metal (amalgam) fillings with composite fillings is possible. Many patients choose to do this for cosmetic reasons, as composite fillings are tooth-colored and blend in with your natural teeth. At South Beach Dental, we can safely replace old fillings, giving you a more natural-looking smile.
