Are DentalFillings
Right for You?
- A cavity or tooth decay
- Tooth sensitivity caused by decay
- A chipped or slightly broken tooth
- An old filling that needs replacement
- Minor tooth wear or damage
Treating cavities early helps preserve more of your natural tooth and reduces the risk of more complex treatment.
What Are Dental Fillings?
Dental fillings are restorations used to repair teeth affected by decay or minor damage. After removing the decayed portion of the tooth, the area is filled with a durable tooth-coloured material that restores its shape, strength, and function.
At Elites Dental Care, we use tooth-coloured composite fillings that blend naturally with your existing teeth for an attractive, long-lasting result.
Did You Know?
Small cavities can often be treated with a simple filling. If left untreated, decay may spread deeper into the tooth and eventually require root canal treatment or extraction.
Why Treat CavitiesEarly?
- Stop tooth decay from progressing
- Preserve more of your natural tooth
- Prevent pain and infection

- Avoid more extensive and costly treatment in the future
Prompt treatment is often the simplest way to maintain long-term oral health.

Dental Filling Procedure
Step 1 – Examination
We assess the tooth to confirm whether a filling is the most appropriate treatment.
Step 2 – Decay Removal
The decayed or damaged portion of the tooth is carefully removed while preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible.
Step 3 – Tooth Restoration
A tooth-coloured composite filling is placed, shaped, and bonded securely to restore the tooth.
Step 4 – Finishing
The filling is polished and adjusted to ensure a comfortable, natural bite.
Step 5 – Review
We check the restoration and provide advice on maintaining your filling for long-term success.

Common Questions About DentalFillings
Are tooth-coloured fillings better than silver fillings?
Tooth-coloured composite fillings blend naturally with your teeth, bond securely to the tooth structure, and are widely used for restoring cavities in visible and back teeth, depending on the clinical situation.
Is getting a filling painful?
Most fillings are completed comfortably. Local anaesthesia may be used when needed to ensure a pain-free experience.
How long do dental fillings last?
With good oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, tooth-coloured fillings can last for many years.
Can a filling replace a broken tooth?
Fillings are suitable for repairing small to moderate areas of damage. Larger fractures may require a crown or another type of restoration.
What happens if I delay treating a cavity?
Untreated decay can spread deeper into the tooth, leading to pain, infection, and the need for more extensive treatment such as a root canal or extraction.
