Fillings

Fillings are done when a tooth has decay or has been broken one way to fix it is to do a filling. Fillings involve taking away the decayed part of the tooth and preparing the tooth for the filling. Then the filling material is placed and can be either a tooth coloured filling, some of which also release fluoride or an amalgam filling with is a silver metallic material which is stronger than the other coloured filling but not as pleasing aesthetically. Dr Steven Du takes great care to ensure the filling resembles the way a natural tooth should look also trying to get a flawless colour match for the patient. Dr Steven Du also ensures the filling feels right and is not too high compared to the other teeth.
