Our dentist may recommend a dental filling in order to preserve a cracked or decayed tooth, preventing the need for a root canal or extraction. Drs. Lara Perry, Justin Loftin, and Natalia Verona recommend a dental filling over a crown when minor damage allows most of the tooth to be saved. Please feel free to contact Hill Country Dental at Walnut Ave or Tx-46 to learn whether you require dental filling in New Braunfels, Texas.
What are Dental Fillings?
A dental filling restores teeth by repairing minor to moderate damage. We recommend a filling for teeth damaged by decay, cavities, minor fractures, or chips. A dental filling restores the tooth’s structure and function, helping maintain a healthy smile. There are two main types of fillings available: amalgam fillings and composite fillings.
The process for placing a dental filling requires just one comfortable visit to our office. Our dentist will first remove the decayed and damaged portion of the tooth, then clean it to remove all traces of decay. We then fill the area with the filling material and shape it to match your tooth’s shape. Finally, the filling is hardened by our dentist for a lasting restoration.
