If you are experiencing tooth sensitivity, pain while chewing, or notice visible holes or black spots on your teeth, you may need dental fillings in Adyar and Chennai. Cavities are one of the most common dental problems, but with timely treatment, they can be easily repaired before they lead to bigger issues like root canal or tooth loss.

At our advanced dental clinic in Adyar, Chennai, we offer painless and high-quality dental filling treatments using modern tooth-colored materials. Our experienced dentists focus on restoring your tooth's strength, function, and natural appearance with minimal discomfort.

When Do You Need Dental Fillings?

Common Signs of Cavities

You may need a dental filling if you experience any of the following symptoms: - Sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods and drinks - Toothache or sharp pain while chewing - Visible holes, pits, or black/brown spots on the tooth surface - Food frequently getting stuck between teeth - Chipped, cracked, or worn-down teeth - Bad breath or unpleasant taste caused by hidden decay

Types of Dental Fillings

Choosing the Right Material for You

We offer different types of dental fillings to suit every patient's needs and budget: - Composite Fillings (Tooth-Colored): Made of resin material that perfectly matches the natural color of your teeth. They are the most popular choice for visible areas because of their aesthetic appeal and good durability. - Glass Ionomer Fillings: These release fluoride over time, which helps prevent further decay. They are often used for children or in areas with high risk of new cavities. - Amalgam Fillings (Silver Fillings): Very strong and long-lasting, but less aesthetic due to their metallic color. They are rarely used now except in specific back teeth cases. At our clinic, we primarily use high-quality tooth-colored composite fillings for better appearance and patient satisfaction.

Dental Filling Procedure

  1. Examination and Diagnosis — The dentist carefully examines the tooth and may take digital X-rays to determine the extent of decay.
  2. Decay Removal — The decayed or damaged portion of the tooth is gently removed using precise instruments.
  3. Filling Placement — The cleaned cavity is filled with the chosen material, which is then hardened with a special light (for composite fillings).
  4. Shaping and Polishing — The filling is carefully shaped and polished to match your natural bite and feel comfortable.

The entire procedure is usually completed in a single visit lasting 20 to 30 minutes per tooth.
