Pediatric dental fillings restore the health of your child's teeth by removing the decayed portion and filling it with a safe and durable material. This prevents the cavity from worsening and protects the surrounding teeth from further damage.
With pediatric dental fillings, your child can regain their ability to chew and speak properly. Cavities can cause discomfort and difficulty in these activities, but fillings restore the tooth's functionality, allowing your child to eat and communicate without any hindrance.
Having a healthy smile can greatly impact your child's confidence and self-esteem. Pediatric dental fillings not only restore oral health but also improve the appearance of the affected tooth. This can boost your child's self-confidence and help them feel more comfortable in social situations.
During the initial visit, Dr. Christian Volpicella will examine your child's teeth, identify any cavities or tooth decay, and determine if pediatric dental fillings are necessary. X-rays may be taken to assess the extent of the decay.
To ensure a comfortable experience, a local anesthetic will be administered to numb the area around the affected tooth. Once your child is comfortable, Dr. Volpicella will remove the decayed portion of the tooth and prepare it for the filling.
Using a safe and durable filling material, such as tooth-colored composite resin, Dr. Volpicella will carefully fill the prepared cavity. The filling material will be shaped and polished to match the natural appearance of the tooth, ensuring a seamless blend with the surrounding teeth.
Pediatric dental fillings provide a long-lasting solution to tooth decay in children. With Dr. Christian Volpicella's expertise and the advanced techniques used at Bright 28, your child's oral health is in good hands.
