Molars do the hard work. They crush food every single day, so any filling placed there has to deal with constant pressure. That’s why your dentist doesn’t simply fill the hole and send you home. The tooth has to be cleaned properly. Then the resin is bonded in layers so it stays secure once it hardens.<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 The colour blends into your natural tooth, so you won’t spot it every time you laugh wide.<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 Strong enough for everyday chewing if the cavity isn’t too large, and that’s where it really shines.<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 Less drilling in many cases. Your dentist keeps more of the original tooth instead of removing extra sections.<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 Most people forget it’s even there after a short while, which is probably the biggest compliment any filling gets.<\/p>\r\n
The procedure is usually straightforward. Your dentist numbs the area. The decay is removed. After that the resin goes in a little at a time, with a special light used to harden each layer before the next one is added. Finally, the filling is shaped so your bite feels natural.<\/p>\r\n
A composite resin filling can last many years if you look after it. Brush properly. Don’t chew ice out of habit. If you grind your teeth while sleeping, wearing a night guard is a much better idea than replacing cracked fillings every few years.
