Deformation problems such as caries, fractures, cracks in the tooth can be aesthetically repaired with composite filling.
Composite filling is a white color aesthetic filling. It provides the opportunity to make aesthetic restorations as it easily adapts to the tooth color.
Inlay and onlay fillings are applied when the tooth tissue is not enough for the filling process. These fillings are used if the remaining space after cleaning the carious area in the tooth is not sufficient. Inlay and onlay fillings are made of ceramic or fiber reinforced composite as well as porcelain.
It is an old-style gray filling. It contains silver, zinc, copper and mercury. The mercury in the amalgam filling, which does not look aesthetically pleasing, can be an allergen. Old-style amalgam fillings can be changed in a single session.
A timely dental filling prevents larger problems that may lead to tooth loss. The problematic area in the tooth to be filled is cleaned with a drill or hard tissue laser. The resulting gap is filled with a new generation composite filling.
There is no pain or pain during tooth filling. If the area to be filled in the tooth is close to the surface, anesthesia may not be needed. Local anesthesia is used in cases where deep bruises need to be cleaned.
It is completed in 1 to 2 sessions depending on the type of filling used.
Even if there is sensitivity, it goes away in 8 to 10 days.
If you do not pay attention to tooth cleaning, the filled tooth may rot again.
