Do you have a cavity or tooth decay requiring attention? At Crestwood Family Dental we only use tooth-coloured, mercury-free composite material. We can also replace old unappealing amalgam (silver metal) fillings, which can also lead to cracked or fractured teeth.
A filling is normally recommended when there is decay present in a tooth. If decay is left untreated it can lead to further loss of tooth structure, or complete loss of the tooth. Regular check-ups can help identify any signs of decay before they become too large or more costly to treat.
Our goal is to provide fillings that strengthen your oral health as well as your confidence. We will create fillings that maintain the natural appearance of your tooth, while at the same time stopping the process of decay in its tracks. To book a filling at our clinic call (07) 5649 8661, or book online through our website.
In your day-to-day life, plaque will gather on your teeth as a result of what you eat. This plaque can be found everywhere, including between the teeth and beneath the gum line. Through regular brushing and flossing, as well as ongoing check-ups and cleans, you can remove this plaque, preventing decay and cavities.
However, without healthy brushing habits, decay can become deep-set and eventually threaten the structure and root of the tooth. This is not only painful but can result in gum disease or the loss of a tooth. At Crestwood Family Dental, we offer fillings to give your tooth a second lease on life.
By having your teeth regularly checked, our dental team can spot signs of decay early. From there, we will provide advice and treatments to improve your oral health and prevent cavities in future. It starts with good habits at home and ends with a professional dental team you can trust. So, visit Crestwood Family Dental today!
