Does one of your teeth have a cavity? If so, Dr. Ralph Hoffmann and Dr. Robert Klink can quickly restore it with a dental filling. When you visit Prosthodontics of the Carolinas for your dental fillings, you can rest assured that you are getting the best care possible because our prosthodontists and team focus daily work on restoring and repairing damaged teeth.
A dental filling is a restoration used to repair minor to moderate tooth damage. We may recommend a filling if a tooth has been damaged by decay (for example, if it has a cavity) or suffers from minor fracturing or chipping. The dental filling is used to restore the tooth to its original structure and function, and return your smile to good health. There are two main types of dental fillings available: amalgam fillings and composite fillings.
The process for placing a dental filling requires just one comfortable visit to our office. Our prosthodontists will first remove the decayed and damaged portion of the tooth, then clean it to remove all traces of decay. We then fill the area with the filling material and shape it to match your tooth’s shape. Finally, the filling is hardened by our prosthodontists for a lasting restoration.
If one of your teeth is decayed or damaged, a dental filling may be a great choice for restoring your oral health and function. We invite you to call or visit us today to learn more about dental fillings and schedule your next appointment with our prosthodontists and team. We look forward to caring for your smile!
