Let Us Help You to Restore Your Smile

Dental fillings, also known as dental restorations, repair small cavities in your teeth. The basic dental cavity filling material is tooth-coloured, and they're usually put in place by drilling into the decayed portion of the tooth and then using a particular type of filler that hardens to fill up the hole. It's a straightforward procedure that can often be done without any pain at all! You'll be able to resume normal activities, such as eating, in no time. 

Dental fillings are an important part of maintaining the health of your teeth, as they help to prevent further decay and damage. If you have a tooth that is currently experiencing a cavity, or if you want to replace old tooth fillings with new aesthetic repairs, Acorn Dental Centre can maintain the natural appearance of your teeth. 



Most of our tooth fillings are made onsite at our Armadale clinic from a resin-based composite material. Our experienced dentists will match tooth fillings to the colour of your teeth to ensure invisibility and a beautiful, natural-looking smile 


What Is Involved in Teeth Filling? 

Tooth cavities are one of the most common dental problems, and in the past, fillings were often associated with pain and discomfort. However, thanks to advancements in modern dentistry, filling procedures have become much more comfortable and effective. In some cases, tooth decay can even be removed without the need for dental drilling.


The first step in any filling procedure is to assess the size and extent of the tooth decay. This may involve taking x-rays or performing a visual examination. Once the dental practitioners have a clear idea of the problem, they will provide anaesthesia if required. Once you are comfortable, the tooth decay is removed using either a dental drill or "drill-free" air-abrasion technology. Next, the tooth is cleaned and prepared for the filling. 


Once your filling is placed and set - sometimes with a special light - it will be shaped and polished to give you the shape and feel of your original tooth back. With proper care, your filling should last for many years to come. Our caring staff at Acorn Dental Centre will be with you throughout the procedure to ensure you are informed of your options, and best post-care practices and, of course, to ensure your comfort. If you have even a small amount of pain that you suspect may be a cavity, don't delay – contact our team at the first sign of trouble, and we can get you smiling again in no time.
