How Fillings Are Placed
Our team clears away decayed tooth material so the filling does not trap decay. The filling is then introduced and cemented so your child's tooth can function normally again.

Overview
When cavities are caught early, fillings can stop them from becoming larger, more painful problems. The Kidds Place helps parents understand filling options and keeps the process calm for children.

Dental fillings
If your child has minor to moderate cavities, fillings can help keep them from growing into larger problems. When a cavity is caught early enough, a filling can prevent it from spreading into the root canal or neighboring healthy teeth.
Below is information to know if a filling is right for your child.
What parents should know
Metal Fillings
Gold fillings and amalgam fillings are sturdy options often used in teeth that are not usually seen.
Composite And Porcelain
Composite and porcelain fillings are colored to match natural teeth, making them less visible and often ideal for front teeth.
Care At Home
Brushing twice a day and flossing once a day is key. Some fillings can stain, so dark foods and beverages may need to be limited.
