Tooth decay is a problem that affects almost everyone. Based on national statistics, 92 percent of Americans will have at least one cavity. Among adults 64 years or younger, roughly 1 in 4 has an untreated cavity. In other words, if you haven’t had a cavity yet, there’s a chance that you will. When you visit us for your filling, your procedure will:
- Feel completely painless with the help of a local anesthetic comfortably administered with The Wand® or with one of our several sedation options
- Remove any trace of your tooth decay so your smile’s health is restored and you can eat without pain
- Use composite resin for your filling, a metal-free and mercury-free material that will blend in with your smile
When you have tooth decay, taking care of it quickly can save you a lot of aches and pains in the long run. If you ignore tooth infection, it may require root canal treatment and a dental crown to fix. You can save time, money, and your smile by getting a filling now.
