What are the different types of dental fillings, and how do I choose the right one?

Dental fillings come in various materials, including amalgam (silver), composite (tooth-colored), and more. The choice depends on factors like aesthetics, the location of the filling, and your dentist’s recommendation.

Is the placement of a dental filling painful, and what is the recovery process like?

The placement of a dental filling is typically not painful, as it’s done under local anesthesia. Some patients may experience mild sensitivity post-procedure, which usually subsides within a short time. Recovery involves resuming normal activities and maintaining good oral hygiene.

How long does a dental filling last, and what can I do to prolong its lifespan?

The lifespan of a dental filling can vary, but with proper care and oral hygiene, it can last many years. Regular dental check-ups, avoiding excessive force on the filling, and maintaining good oral health practices can extend its durability.
