Signs You Might Need a Dental Filling
Watch for these common signs you might need a filling:
– Sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods and drinks
– Sharp or throbbing tooth pain
– Visible hole, pit, or dark spot on your tooth
– Floss catching on rough edges between teeth

The sooner a cavity is treated, the easier and more affordable it is to fix! Often times patients wait too long to be seen and decay that could have been fixed easily leads to a dental crown or root canal.
Common Questions About Fillings
Will getting a filling hurt?
No. We use gentle, effective numbing techniques. Most patients report little to no discomfort during the procedure.
How long does a filling take?
Most fillings can be completed in about 30–60 minutes, depending on size and location.
What are fillings made of?
We primarily use durable, tooth-colored composite resin that blends naturally with your tooth.
How long do fillings last?
With good home care, composite fillings typically last 7–10 years or longer.
Do all cavities need to be filled?
Small early cavities may sometimes be monitored, but most need to be filled to prevent bigger problems later. There is emerging technology that allows us to place a medicine on incipient decay that will allow it to remineralize. if caught early, we may not need to place a filling.
