Dental Fillings in Geelong
Tooth-coloured fillings are a simple way to repair cavities without affecting the natural look of your smile.
We offer white fillings in 14 carefully matched shades, allowing us to blend the material closely with your surrounding teeth. Once placed, the filling becomes almost invisible.
White fillings also preserve more of your natural tooth. Unlike older amalgam options, which often require the removal of healthy structure, composite fillings are designed to bond directly to the tooth with minimal preparation.
This means a cleaner result, both in appearance and long-term strength.
Safe Removal and Replacement of Amalgam Fillings
If you’re looking to replace old silver (amalgam) fillings, we offer safe, ADA-approved removal at Dental Hub Geelong.
Our process is designed to protect both patients and staff by using strict safety protocols and high-grade suction systems, before restoring the tooth with modern, tooth-coloured materials.
PAIN AND SENSITIVITY AS RED FLAGS FOR TOOTH DECAY
Fast and Effective Tooth Fillings for Cavities
Tooth decay can manifest as sensitivity, chewing pain, visible holes or pits on the tooth surface, or discolouration. If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s time to act!
Sensitivity is a sign that your tooth enamel needs help. Our dentists will treat it so you can enjoy hot, cold, sweet, and acidic treats without pain or worry. Conversely, discomfort while chewing may indicate that your tooth’s structural integrity is damaged, requiring prompt attention to prevent further damage.
Holes or pits in your tooth? That’s decay knocking at the door. Let us fill those gaps and protect your teeth from further erosion.
Don’t wait! If you’re experiencing these issues, professional care is a must. Our tooth filling services will restore your tooth’s structure and put a stop to decay.
What to Expect During Your Filling Appointment
- We treat one area of the mouth at a time.
- For example, two fillings on the upper left can usually be done in one session.
- If you need three on the lower right, we may spread them across two or three visits.
- This way, only one area is numb at a time, and the appointments stay straightforward.
You’ll stay comfortable throughout the appointment. First, we will use a numbing gel in the area around the tooth. Next, we can give an injection so that the area is completely numb.
Most people feel little to no discomfort, and the numbness typically wears off after 1.5 to 2 hours.
If you’d prefer to do more or less at each visit, we’re happy to plan a timeline that suits you best!
