Cavity Treatment & Fillings

Dental Fillings

Cavities are a common cause of tooth discomfort. Removing the cavity & filling the hole is a simple procedure we perform at Eastern Family Dentistry.

Dental fillings are used to fill the hole created when a dentist treats a cavity in the patient’s tooth. Cavities are caused by breakdown in tooth enamel that allows bacteria to enter and damage the tooth. This can cause pain and discomfort for the patient, and if not treated, could cause severe damage to the tooth.

Local Anesthetic

Numbs the area surrounding the damaged tooth before treatment
  • Makes for a painless treatment
  • Works quickly
  • Numbness wears off shortly after the procedure is complete.

Cleaning Out Tooth

Decay is removed from the inside of the tooth
  • A small hole is drilled in the tooth.
  • Decay & bacteria treated and removed
  • Pain subsides quickly.

Filling Applied

Filling material is applied to the hole to close the tooth

  • Protects from any more bacteria or decay entering
  • Durable and long-lasting
  • Different filling materials available; many are tooth colored
