When a tooth develops decay or minor damage, a filling is used to seal and strengthen it. Our dentists carefully remove the decayed portion of the tooth and place a filling material, typically a tooth-coloured composite, for a seamless look and secure fit. Using digital X-rays and intra-oral scanning, we ensure accurate diagnosis and placement.
Fixing a damaged tooth does not have to be a big deal. Schedule a visit today, and we will take care of the rest.
Benefits
Fillings not only stop tooth decay in its tracks but also restore your tooth’s strength, shape, and function. Here is how you benefit from getting expertly placed fillings:
01
Stops Tooth Decay Early
Fillings seal off cavities and prevent further decay or infection from spreading to the tooth’s root.
02
Restores Functionality
Chewing, biting, and speaking become comfortable again with a properly restored tooth.
03
Blends Seamlessly
Tooth-coloured fillings match your natural teeth for a flawless finish—no one will notice a thing.
04
Improves Overall Oral Health
Addressing decay early reduces the risk of more invasive treatments, such as root canals or extractions, later on.

At Woodleigh Waters Dental, we use modern filling materials like composite resin to ensure both durability and natural appearance.
You might need a filling if you experience tooth sensitivity, pain when chewing, visible holes or dark spots on a tooth, or food getting stuck between teeth.
At Woodleigh Waters Dental, our team uses digital X-rays and thorough examinations to detect cavities early, often before you feel any discomfort.
Woodleigh Waters Dental offers tooth-coloured composite fillings, which are the most popular choice for both front and back teeth due to their natural appearance and strong bonding ability.
We also offer alternative options, including amalgam (metal) fillings and temporary materials, as needed, depending on the situation and patient preference.
