Cracked, chipped, or decayed teeth can lead to serious pain. A dental filling helps restore strength, shape, and protection. At Wattle Park Dental, we use trusted techniques and modern materials to treat cavities with lasting results.
We focus on natural-looking results. Our fillings are designed to match your tooth colour. That means no silver lines when you smile.
We begin with a check-up and x-rays if needed. Early detection means smaller fillings.
We clean the tooth and remove any damaged material. This step keeps the area stable and free from bacteria.
Composite resin is layered and shaped to fit the cavity. It’s hardened with a special light. The result is smooth and strong.
We still offer metal fillings if requested. These are less common now. Composite is usually preferred for front and side teeth.
