Cavities are a hole in the tooth caused by the build-up of plaque. When this occurs, a filling is needed to close that hole. If left unchecked, cavities can lead to more problems and treatment can become expensive. So, it is important to keep up with your regular preventative care visits as well as daily at-home care.
What Happens at an Appointment
A local anesthetic will be administered to the gums surrounding the problem tooth. A bonded resin will fill the cavity. This can blend in naturally with your teeth for a nice, finished look.
