Dental Fillings - Hardy Smiles

Dental Fillings

Tooth decay and trauma can rob a tooth of its function and health, and cause no small amount of discomfort. To help our patient smile with ease, our dentists often provide durable, long-lasting dental fillings in Louisburg, North Carolina. If you are experiencing symptoms of a cavity or have sustained a dental injury, please visit Dr. James Hardy at Hardy Smiles as soon as possible to preserve your natural smile.

A dental filling is a restoration used to repair minor to moderate tooth damage. We may recommend a filling if your tooth has been damaged by tooth decay (for example, if your tooth has a cavity), or if your tooth suffers from minor fracturing or chipping. The dental filling is used to restore the tooth to its original structure and function and to return your smile to good health. There are two main types of dental fillings available: amalgam fillings and composite fillings.

The process for placing a filling requires just one comfortable visit to our office. Our doctor will first remove the decayed and damaged portion of your tooth, and then clean the tooth to remove all traces of decay. We then fill the tooth with the filling material and shape it to match your tooth’s shape. Finally, the filling is hardened for a lasting restoration.
