Dental Fillings

When getting a dental filling at our office, Dr. White and her team may use drill-free air abrasion to first clean your tooth of dental decay and then fill cavities to strengthen and protect your teeth. We invite you to learn more about dental fillings by calling us today at 817-283-0047 to schedule an appointment with Dr. Marea White.

A dental filling is a restoration used to repair minor to moderate tooth damage. We may recommend a filling if a tooth has been damaged by decay (for example, if it has a cavity) or suffers from minor fracturing or chipping. The dental filling is used to restore the tooth to its original structure and function, and return your smile to good health.

The process for placing a dental filling requires just one comfortable visit to our office. Dr. White will first remove the decayed and damaged portion of the tooth, then clean it to remove all traces of decay. She then fills the area with the filling material and shapes it to match your tooth’s shape. Finally, the filling is hardened by Dr. White for a lasting restoration.

If one of your teeth is decayed or damaged, a dental filling may be a great choice for restoring your oral health and function. We invite you to call or visit our office in Bedford, Texas, today to learn more about dental fillings and schedule your next appointment with Dr. White and our team. We look forward to caring for your smile!
