Why should my child get a dental filling?

Filings are one of the fastest, simplest, and most affordable ways to treat cavities for kids. Cavities are a big deal, even if they're only present in the baby teeth. Cavities can cause pain and discomfort, and may lead to infected teeth or even tooth loss. The baby teeth are just as important as your child’s adult teeth, since they help form the paths that adult teeth follow when they emerge later in life. With a dental filling, your child’s tooth will stay healthy for years to come.

Did you know…

A study from the NIH has shown that, on average, kids from the ages of 2-11 have 1.6 decayed baby teeth.

The Benefits of Dental Fillings For Kids

Restores Function

Pediatric dental fillings repair damaged or decayed teeth, allowing your child to bite, chew, and speak normally without discomfort

Prevents Further Decay

By filling cavities early, the spread of decay is halted, preventing further damage to your child's teeth.

‍

Aesthetic Restoration

Tooth-colored fillings blend seamlessly with natural teeth, preserving the appearance of your child’s smile.

The Dental Filling Treatment Process

Examination and Diagnosis

During the initial visit, the dentist will examine your child’s teeth and may take X-rays to identify any cavities or decay. This ensures that the right treatment plan is made for your child’s specific needs.

‍

Cleaning and Preparation

Once a cavity is identified, the dentist will gently remove the decayed portion of the tooth. The area is then thoroughly cleaned to ensure no bacteria or debris remain before the filling is placed.

‍

Filling Placement and Finishing

The tooth-colored filling material is carefully applied to the cleaned area and shaped to fit naturally with your child’s bite. Once placed, the filling is hardened with a special curing light, ensuring a durable and comfortable result.
