What is a dental filling?

A filling is the most common treatment for a tooth damaged by decay. The decayed part is removed and the cavity is sealed, which stops further damage and restores the tooth's shape and function.

The Problem

Signs you may need a filling.

Sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods

Visible holes or dark spots on teeth

Pain when chewing or biting

Persistent bad breath or a bad taste

A chipped or broken tooth

Dental Fillings

Why fill early

A small treatment that protects the tooth.

  • Prevents further decay and infection
  • Restores chewing and speaking
  • Natural look with composite fillings
  • Strengthens the tooth against fractures

Types of fillings

Composite fillings

Tooth-coloured and well suited to front teeth where appearance matters.

GIC (glass ionomer) fillings

Release fluoride; often used for children and non-load-bearing areas.

Temporary fillings

Used in emergencies or before a permanent filling is placed.

Our Clinical Team

Specialist-reviewed, doctor-led care

Every dental fillings case is examined, planned, and reviewed by a specialist in that discipline.
