The Cavity Filling Procedure

Here’s a breakdown of the steps involved in the cavity filling procedure:-

• 1. Initial Examination:

  The dentist examines the tooth and takes X-rays to assess the extent of the decay and determine the appropriate treatment.

• 2. Anesthesia:

  Local anesthesia is applied to numb the area around the affected tooth, ensuring a painless procedure.

• 3. Removal of Decay

  The dentist removes the decayed portion of the tooth using a drill or laser, preparing the cavity for the filling.

• 4. Filling Placement:

  The chosen filling material is applied in layers, with each layer hardened using a special light. The dentist then shapes and polishes the filling to ensure a comfortable bite and natural appearance. The filling placement is a crucial step in creating a permanent filling in teeth.
