Filling
Have a cavity expertly filled at SKYDENT
Has part of your tooth been damaged or lost to tooth decay? At SKYDENT we can repair it simply and effectively with a filling. This treatment stops the decay from spreading, eases pain and sensitivity, and restores both the function and the look of your tooth or molar.
What does the treatment involve?
We talk you through the treatment beforehand, without rushing. If needed, you’ll be given a local anaesthetic so the procedure stays comfortable and pain-free. Once the anaesthetic has taken effect, we carefully remove the decayed tooth tissue. We then clean and dry the tooth before applying the filling material precisely and curing it. The final step is trimming and smoothing it down for a perfect fit.
Why choose composite fillings?
We work with composite, a tooth-coloured material that blends seamlessly with the colour and shape of your own teeth. Composite isn’t only for filling cavities; we also use it to repair chipped teeth and correct discolouration. For this we choose special aesthetic composites that give a natural, long-lasting result.
What does a filling cost?
One question we hear often is: how much does it cost to fill a cavity? The price can vary depending on a few factors, such as the size of the cavity, where the tooth sits in the mouth and the material we use.
The exact cost will differ from one situation to the next, so we always give you a clear, personal treatment plan and cost estimate. It sets out the costs in plain terms, so you know exactly where you stand before we begin.
