Fillings are required when a tooth has decayed or fractured. Most people will need a filling at some stage in their lives. While prevention is the best option when it comes to dental care, it’s important to get it treated as soon as is possible. A filling is what is used to restore the part of your tooth that has been damaged through decay or injury. The dentist will remove any decay from your tooth and place a filling in to the area of the tooth that was damaged. Composite resin is now the most popular choice of filling material.
