  1. How Dentist fix Cavities Dentists typically fix cavities by removing the decayed portion of the tooth and filling the area with a material such as composite resin or dental amalgam. The first step in this process is for the dentist to numb the area around the tooth using a local anesthetic. Next, they will use a drill or an air abrasion tool to remove the decayed portion of the tooth. Once the decay has been removed, the dentist will clean the area and then fill it with the chosen filling material. The dentist will typically check the tooth again after a few weeks to ensure that it is healing properly. www.maudestreetdental.com.au
