  1. Dental Fillings http://www.drajwanis.com/

  2. What are Dental Fillings? • Dental fillings are a treatment option to help restore the function and appearance of a tooth that is damaged or decayed. • Dental fillings are most commonly used to treat a cavity.  Having a tooth “filled” is a very common procedure and can be completed in one appointment at the office. http://www.drajwanis.com/

  3. Types of Dental Fillings • Currently there are two materials commonly available for tooth fillings. • Composite, or white/tooth-colored material. Composite resin material is made of a combination of plastic and glass, and is generally more natural-looking. • Amalgam, known as silver fillings. Amalgam is a combination of metals bound together with elemental mercury.    http://www.drajwanis.com/

  4. What are the steps involved in a dental filling? • First, your dentist will numb the area to be treated with a local anesthetic. Then, he or she will prepare the tooth by removing the decayed portion of the tooth, or existing restorative materials. The size of the dental filling, or the number of tooth surfaces requiring treatment, will depend on the tooth as well as the extent of the damage or decay. • Once the tooth has been prepared and cleaned, your dentist will fill in the missing portion of the tooth structure with composite restorative material. Your dentist will shape the material to match as closely as possible to the former tooth structure. Your dentist may ask you to bite down to make sure your teeth fit together comfortably. Your dentist will adjust the shape of the filling until it is comfortable for you. http://www.drajwanis.com/

  5. Dental Fillings for Children • Primary, or baby teeth, are generally softer and more porous than adult (permanent) teeth.  This can make them more susceptible to decay and dental cavities.  The dental filling procedure and recovery process for pediatric patients is very similar to that of adults.  In some cases, Nitrous Oxide may be used to help a child feel more relaxed during the procedure.  In this case, your child should not eat for 2 hours prior to the procedure. http://www.drajwanis.com/
