Aesthetic Fillings
Natural-looking restoration for decayed or damaged teeth.
An aesthetic filling can restore minor or moderate tooth substance loss using a tooth-coloured filling material. At Dr. Pados Dental Clinic, we always examine the current condition of the affected tooth and then decide whether a filling or another restoration is the right solution.
Restoration tailored to your tooth
When shaping the filling, we consider the condition, shape and function of the affected tooth. The goal is not only to seal the damaged area, but to restore the tooth's proper form and usability.
“Treating tooth decay or a minor tooth injury at the right time can help restore the tooth's shape and function, as well as prevent the problem from getting worse.”
What problem can an aesthetic filling solve?
As a result of tooth decay or a minor injury, part of the tooth substance can be damaged or lost. This can cause sensitivity, discomfort, a functional problem or an aesthetic change.
If the tooth's condition allows, an aesthetic filling can restore the shape and function of the affected area.
Our solution
At Dr. Pados Dental Clinic, we first examine the affected tooth and assess the extent of the damage.
If the tooth can be properly restored with a filling, we plan the treatment tailored to the tooth's condition and shape. With greater tooth substance loss, another restoration — such as an inlay or onlay — may also be considered.
When might an aesthetic filling be considered?
An aesthetic filling can be the right solution when the damage to the tooth is still at a level where the missing tooth substance can be restored with a direct filling.
- In case of tooth decay
- With minor tooth substance loss
- When replacing a previous filling, if indicated
- For minor restoration of a damaged tooth
- When restoring the tooth's shape and function is the goal
The first step is always an assessment
Not every damaged or decayed tooth can be restored with a filling. Based on a personal examination, we can decide whether an aesthetic filling, an inlay/onlay or another treatment is the right solution.
