By restoring the tooth, a filling prevents further decay. When the dentist fixes a cavity, they will remove the decay, give the area a deep clean, and fill.
Depending on the type of decay, or where the cavity is in your mouth, there are different types of materials that may be used. Woodbridge Kids Dental offers composite fillings which are white plastic, silver fillings, stainless steel crowns, and more. Depending on the issue, the dentist will make the best recommendation and method for your child's cavity.
After your child has gotten their
cavity fill they can eat and drink as normal, and brush and floss.
They may experience some sensitivity to cold. The dentist will give
you further instruction on post filling treatment.
