Tooth Filling
A tooth filling is a commonplace dental procedure at Richter Dental Clinic, where we employ cutting-edge technologies, the finest materials, and modern techniques to ensure a seamless, complication-free, and painless experience.
Causes for Tooth Filling
Dental filling involves the dentist addressing cavities or defects in a tooth using a unique seal material. The need for filling arises primarily due to cavities, with caries being the most prevalent dental ailment globally. Consequently, many dental clinic visits pertain to the tooth-filling procedure.
Understanding Dental Seal
Also known as fillings, dental seals are artificial materials dentists use to cover cavities or defects. Various types of filling materials serve different purposes, including:
- Direct Composite Fillings
- Indirect Gold Fillings
- Dental Sealants
- Fillings for Root Canals
- The Tooth Filling Process
- Dental Consultation

The dentist numbs the area around the tooth to ensure a pain-free procedure.
Removal of Damaged Part:
Using specialised tools, the dentist removes the damaged or cavitated portion of the tooth.
Filling Material Application:
The dentist applies a filling material to restore the damaged area. The filling material comes in various colours, allowing patients to choose shades that match their natural teeth.

Post-extraction, the dentist shapes and polishes the tooth, ensuring the restored part blends seamlessly with the rest of the teeth.
Remember, timely consultation for cavities minimises the risk of complications. In cases where the decay progresses, Richter dentists also offer comprehensive surgical tooth extraction services.
