Tooth Fillings Treatment In Dubai
Most people will have at least one tooth filling in Dubai. Fillings are used to fill in cavities within teeth, which result from bacteria living within the mouth or in cases where the tooth is cracked or worn down by dental grinding.
Before the idea of dental fillings in Dubai, patients would have to remove the tooth affected by cavities because they would cause discomfort. Nowadays, a tooth is saved with dental fillings after the bacteria have been eliminated and the cavity has been treated.
The appearance and function of the tooth’s surface are restored to their original appearance and operation.
What is tooth filling in Dubai?
Getting a Tooth filling in Dubai is a way of restoring a decayed tooth to its normal shape and function. When a dentist inserts a dental filling, they first remove the decayed part of the tooth, then clean out the cavity left behind and fill it in with a composite material.
By blocking the spaces where bacteria could enter, our tooth fillings in Dubai prevent the progression and aggravation of the decay. The different materials used for fillings include gold, porcelain, composites (which are tooth-coloured) and amalgam (an alloy of mercury, silver, copper, tin and sometimes zinc).
What is the best type
of filling?
There is no one type of tooth filling that is best for everyone.
The most appropriate type of filling for your case will depend on the size of the cavity,
your possible allergies to certain materials, the location of the tooth and the cost.

If tooth decay or a fracture has damaged a large part of the tooth,
it may be necessary to make a crown. If the decay has affected the nerve,
there are two options: either devitalise the tooth (in other words, remove the nerve) or
perform a pulp capping which will keep the nerve alive.

How do I know if I need a filling?
Only your dentist can tell if you have a cavity that needs to be treated. During the clinical examination, your dentist will examine all surfaces of your teeth with a probe and mirror.
Anything that might look abnormal will then be carefully checked with special instruments. Your dentist may also take an X-ray of the entire mouth or of individual teeth. The type of treatment your dentist chooses will depend on the size of the carious lesion.
