An unexpected toothache could be the result of untreated decay. Pain is a common symptom of one or more cavities. The sooner you see your Drumheller, Alberta dentist for treatment, the sooner you can get pain relief. At Riverside Dental Clinic, we treat decay with composite dental cavity fillings. Dr. Kenneth Poznikoff will cleanse your tooth of decay and fill it with composite resin material to protect it from future infection. Treating a decayed tooth restores its usefulness.
Composite fillings have become popular over the years due to their natural-looking, tooth-coloured appearance. Once bonded to your tooth, the filling blends right in, so it’s not so obvious you’ve had cavity treatment. Composite fillings are also quite resilient. When placed on your back teeth, they’re fully capable of withstanding the pressure of chewing and grinding your food.
Composite fillings are composed of powdered quartz glass or other ceramic material mixed with composite resin to give them a tough, durable composition. The resin bonds quickly and easily with your teeth, forming a strong seal against decay. With proper care, these fillings can provide years of cavity protection before needing to be replaced.
Treating cavities quickly will stop your pain, save your teeth and prevent decay from spreading to healthy teeth. Composite fillings offer a safe and effective way to treat decay and restore oral health.
