Frequently Asked Questions

Types of Dental Fillings Available near Belgrave VIC 3160

Dentists near Belgrave VIC 3160 offer several types of fillings to suit different needs and budgets. Composite resin (tooth-coloured) fillings are the most popular choice for their natural appearance. Ceramic fillings are highly durable and stain-resistant. Glass ionomer fillings release fluoride and are often used for children or below-the-gum-line restorations. Some practices still offer amalgam (silver) fillings where appropriate.

What to Expect During a Filling

A filling appointment typically takes 20 to 40 minutes. Your dentist will numb the area with local anaesthetic, remove the decayed portion of the tooth, clean the cavity and place the filling material. For composite fillings, the material is applied in layers and hardened with a curing light. You can eat and drink normally once the numbness wears off.
