Repair and Protect Your Teeth with Dental Fillings
When a tooth is damaged by decay or injury, a dental filling is often the best way to restore its strength and function. Fillings are used to fill cavities or cracks, protecting the tooth from further damage while maintaining its natural appearance. Our dental fillings are made from durable, tooth-coloured materials that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, ensuring both function and aesthetics.
Dental fillings are a restorative treatment used to repair decayed or damaged teeth. The decayed portion of the tooth is removed, and the filling material is used to fill the space, preventing further decay and restoring the tooth’s structure. At our clinic, we use high-quality, tooth-coloured materials that provide a natural look and long-lasting durability.
If a tooth is affected by decay, it’s important to treat it as soon as possible to prevent further damage. Left untreated, decay can spread, leading to more serious dental problems, such as infection or tooth loss. A dental filling helps restore the tooth to its normal shape and function, allowing you to chew and speak comfortably while preventing further damage.

We offer different types of fillings, including composite resin and porcelain fillings, both of which are designed to blend with your natural teeth. Composite resin fillings are perfect for small to medium cavities, providing strength and durability. Porcelain fillings, also known as inlays or onlays, are used for larger cavities and provide a natural-looking, long-lasting solution.
The Filling Procedure
The process of getting a filling is quick and straightforward. First, we numb the area around the tooth to ensure your comfort. We then remove the decayed portion of the tooth, clean the area, and carefully place the filling material. The material is shaped and polished to ensure it fits perfectly with your bite, restoring your tooth’s natural look and function.
Cost of Dental Fillings
The cost of a dental filling depends on the size of the cavity and the type of material used. We will always provide a detailed quote before proceeding with treatment, outlining the total cost, your insurance rebate, and the gap you will need to pay. This way, you’ll have all the information you need to make an informed decision about your dental care.
