The process is straightforward and often only requires one or two appointments at your local Sheffield practice. Once your dentist has assessed the area that requires treatment, they will clear out any decay before filling the clean cavity with a material of your choice. This can be discussed further with your dentist.

Your dental fillings can wear away, crack or chip from grinding, clenching or chewing. If we identify a weakness in your restoration, it may be necessary to replace the filling. Left untreated, the seal between the tooth and the filling breaks, allowing bacteria and food to enter and cause decay.

Should you require a filling, your dentist will discuss with you the different options available and best advise on the most suitable for you and your teeth.
