Whether it’s addressing cavities or repairing minor tooth damage, dental fillings are a simple and effective solution.
Understanding Dental Fillings
Dental fillings are one of the most common—and essential—treatments in modern dentistry. When small cavities or cracks appear, fillings step in to restore your tooth’s shape, strength, and function. Think of them as protective patches that help preserve your natural smile.
If you're experiencing a lingering toothache or sudden sensitivity to sweets or cold drinks, it could be a sign of decay. Left untreated, these issues can lead to more serious problems. Fortunately, Smiles by Pinto offers affordable, expert dental fillings designed to relieve discomfort and restore your confidence—so you can get back to smiling without hesitation.

FAQ About Dental Fillings
We know you have questions, so here are some quick answers!
Q: Do dental fillings hurt?
A: Nope! We numb the area before treatment, so you won’t feel a thing. Some mild sensitivity afterward is normal but temporary.
Q: How long does dental fillings take?
A: Most fillings take less than an hour, so you’ll be in and out before you know it!
Q: Can I eat after getting a filling?
A: Yes, but if you received a silver (amalgam) filling, wait 24 hours before chewing on that side. Composite fillings harden immediately, so you can eat soft foods right away.
Q: What if my filling falls out?
A: Call us ASAP! A missing filling can leave your tooth vulnerable to damage. We’ll replace it quickly to keep your smile protected.
Q: Do I need to replace my old silver fillings?
A: Only if they are cracked, leaking, or causing discomfort. Otherwise, they can last for years without issue.
