Dental Fillings
Reliable Dental Fillings for Tooth Restoration
Dr. Zachary Wesley provides tooth-colored dental fillings for adults and children. Dental fillings are usually provided when a tooth has damage from decay or a crack. A filling will restore the natural contours, shape, and appearance of the tooth. We invite you to contact Wesley Dentistry at 615-377-0111 to learn more about adult and pediatric dental fillings in Brentwood, TN, and schedule your appointment with our friendly dentist.
Dental Filling Process
A dental filling is a restoration used to repair minor to moderate tooth damage. We may recommend a filling if a tooth has been damaged by decay (for example, if it has a cavity) or suffers from minor fracturing or chipping. The dental filling is used to restore the tooth to its original structure and function, and return your smile to good health. There are two main types of dental fillings available: amalgam fillings and composite fillings.
The process for placing a dental filling requires just one comfortable visit to our office. Our dentist will first remove the decayed and damaged portion of the tooth, then clean it to remove all traces of decay. We then fill the area with the filling material and shape it to match your tooth’s shape. Finally, the filling is hardened by our dentist for a lasting restoration.
