Who it’s for

  • We found a cavity on your x-rays
  • A tooth is sensitive to cold or sweets
  • Food keeps catching in one spot

What happens

  1. We numb the tooth.
  2. We clean out the decay.
  3. We fill it with tooth-colored material that matches your shade.
  4. We shape it to your bite and harden it. One visit, usually under an hour for one tooth.

Does it hurt?

You're numb for the procedure. Eat once the numbness wears off.

Questions people ask

Why fix a cavity that doesn't hurt?

Cavities don't hurt until they're deep. By the time one throbs, you're often past a filling and into a root canal or extraction.

Can a cavity spread to other teeth?

Not exactly, but the bacteria that cause it are everywhere in your mouth, so the habits behind one cavity cause the next.

Are the fillings silver?

No. We use tooth-colored composite that bonds to the tooth and matches its shade.

Why are my teeth sensitive?

Often worn enamel or a cavity exposing the inner tooth. Get it checked before it gets worse.
