Fillings

If your tooth has been chipped or has a cavity and needs to be restored, fillings can be used to solve these issues. Fillings are the most common way to repair teeth, as they prevent further problems from escalating and potentially affecting your neighbouring teeth.

Fillings: The Process

Once the need for a filling has been identified, the decay is removed and the surrounding tooth is cleaned, then filled. Here at Crown Bank Dental, we’re big on prevention over cure. Post-treatment, we may wish to discuss how you can reduce the likelihood of needing a filling in the future.

FAQs

What symptoms might I experience if I need a filling?

In many cases, you won’t experience any symptoms to alert you to the need for a filling. It’s for this reason that routine check-ups are so important, as your dentist will be able to identify any problems, and act to address them immediately – before symptoms occur. Sensitivity and pain after eating and drinking are tell-tale signs that it’s time to make an appointment right away and not to wait until your next routine check-up. The sooner the problem is addressed, the better.

How long do fillings last?

Fillings can last a number of years with the correct care. Eating a healthy diet, visiting the dentist and hygienist at the recommended intervals and adopting a good at-home oral care routine will stand you in good stead.

Will the treatment hurt?

As an anaesthetic is used, you shouldn’t experience any discomfort. Some minor sensitivity and tenderness may be felt as the anaesthetic begins to wear off, which should subside after 48 hours. Please get in touch with us if you’re concerned about any persistent discomfort.

Efficient and friendly staff, Well worth the change from my old uncaring dentist in Sandbach.Would strongly recommend. Only annoying drawback is the amount of times you expected to fill out the health questionnaire!

Brilliant dentist. I had a 4 hour appointment today for replacement veneers. Will explained every step of my treatment. Walked out with my temporary teeth which look great. Another visit to replace in 3 weeks and not nervous at all.

I have been with the Practice for 20 years and travel an hour to get there. I would not go anywhere else. All dentists, receptionists and above all their therapist are the only team I would trust with my own and my family’s oral health.

I was dealt with in a professional and friendly manner. The treatment took one hour to complete. During this time I was regularly asked if I was comfortable, and offered short breaks to clear my mouth of matter created whilst being treated. A dentist not the nicest of places to have visit, however no pain and it appears that the treatment was successful.

I'm a nervous patient, took me years to pluck up the courage to book a dentist appointment. The staff here are all so friendly and professional, everything is explained and put into a comprehensive treatment plan, enabled an informed choice of treatment options with no pressure either way. I'm now confident I'm in safe hands. Very happy I chose Crown dental.
