Frequently Asked Questions

01

Who might consider this treatment?

Anyone with a cavity, minor tooth fracture, or worn enamel that needs to be restored.

02

What is the typical experience?

The tooth is numbed, so the procedure is comfortable. You may feel some vibration while the decay is removed but no pain. The whole appointment is usually quick.

03

How long does it usually take?

Most fillings are completed in a single 30–60 minute appointment.

04

Is there anything to keep in mind?

Composite resin fillings may stain slightly over time. Avoid very hot or cold foods for a few hours after your appointment.

05

What should I know about recovery after?

Sensitivity to temperature and pressure for a few days after placement is normal. Biting should feel balanced immediately — if not, a quick adjustment may be needed.
