Fillings (Restorations)

Dealing with tooth pain, cavities, or visible damage can be distressing. These issues can impact your daily life, affecting everything from eating to speaking with confidence. If you're seeking a solution to restore the health and appearance of your teeth, we’re here to help.

Our filling service restores teeth affected by decay or damage using durable composite materials. These restorations help bring back strength and function—while preserving a natural, healthy-looking smile.

Since 1979, Paris Dental Centre has been a trusted part of the community, providing high-quality dental care with a focus on comfort, compassion, and long-term oral health. Unlike corporate practices, we offer a personalized experience in a warm, family-friendly environment, where patients are treated like people, not numbers.

Could You Benefit from a Dental Filling?

Every day wear and tear, cavities, or minor damage can all affect how your teeth look and feel. Fillings offer a simple way to repair these issues and protect your smile. You might benefit from a dental filling if you’re experiencing:

• Chipped or cracked teeth
• Tooth sensitivity to heat, cold, or sweets
• Mild discomfort when chewing or biting
• Visible dark spots or holes
• Uneven or rough tooth surfaces

Noticing one or more of these signs? A dental exam can help determine if a filling is the best option for you.

Why We Use Composite Fillings

At Paris Dental Centre, we exclusively use composite (tooth-colored) filling material for restorations. This modern material is designed to look and feel natural, blending seamlessly with your existing teeth.

Composite fillings are strong, reliable, and versatile. Because they bond directly to the tooth, they typically require less drilling and preserve more of your natural tooth structure. This makes them a minimally invasive solution that supports long-term tooth health.

Whether you're restoring a front tooth or repairing a back molar, composite fillings offer a beautiful, functional result.

What to Expect During the Filling Process

If you've been experiencing pain or discomfort due to cavities or tooth damage, composite fillings can offer a quick and effective solution. The process of getting a composite filling at Paris Dental Centre typically involves the following steps:

1. Initial Consultation: Our expert dentist will examine your tooth and take X-rays, if necessary, to assess the extent of the damage.
2. Numbing the Area: We’ll use a local anesthetic to numb the area around the affected tooth, ensuring you feel comfortable and relaxed during the procedure.
3. Removing Decay: The decayed or damaged portion of your tooth is gently removed using dental tools such as a drill, laser, or air abrasion.
4. Preparing the Tooth: Once the cavity is cleaned, we apply a special bonding agent to help the composite material adhere to the tooth securely.
5. Applying the Composite Resin: The composite filling is applied in layers, with each layer being hardened using a special blue light to ensure a strong and durable bond.
6. Shaping and Polishing: After the final layer is applied, we carefully shape the filling to match the contours of your tooth and polish it to create a smooth, natural finish.
7. Final Adjustment: We’ll check your bite to make sure the filling feels comfortable and make any necessary adjustments.
