Patients in Southwark & Lambeth love our practice
“Dr Raj Patel was kind, fast and efficient but without rushing. I had a filling done on the lateral incisor, which turned out great. I am really sensitive about dentists, but I had a comfortable time at this clinic. Everything was professionally handled, from the reception to the aftercare. Keep on doing a good job!” – Tacal, Blackfriars.
Spotting decay before it’s too late
Cavities work to restore the tooth shape and prevent bacteria from entering the internal structure of the tooth, potentially causing further decay or infection.
During a dental check-up, it’s very easy for our dentists to assess the surface of your teeth and spot signs of decay or little cracks and fissures. In this case, fillings are the best, lasting preventative solution before the decay becomes too serious. In the event of severe decay, root canals are likely to be prescribed if you are suffering from severe tooth pain or a blackened tooth where it’s beginning to die.
You’ll likely require an emergency appointment if you’re filling has broken or your toothache has become unbearable. Mint Dental offers out-of-hours emergency dental work and even reserves special appointments for patients in need. Find out more.
The process of receiving a dental filling is very straightforward, as we know you are aware. Often completed in just one appointment at our London clinic (direct fillings), we’ll clear out the decay, clean your cavity and close it all up using the material of your choice.
How can you tell if you have tooth decay at home?
- You are experiencing tooth sensitivity when exposed to certain foods or temperatures
- There are tears to your flossing strings
- A previous filling has become damaged
- You get food stuck between teeth
- There are dark spots on the tooth
Types of fillings
Which filling is the best?
It all depends on the size of the cavity and position, but it also boils down to the patient’s choice and budget. Tooth-coloured fillings are certainly the popular option, as they don’t really even look like fillings. However, these are less durable than other filling types like silver or gold.
