Fillings
When a cavity develops, timely treatment prevents discomfort and further damage. At Sunbeams Pediatric Dentistry, we use durable, tooth-colored fillings to restore your child’s teeth naturally and safely.
What Are Fillings?
Fillings replace the portion of tooth damaged by decay with a safe, tooth-colored resin. This restores strength and function while blending seamlessly with the natural tooth.
What Parents Can Expect
We gently remove decay, clean the area, place the filling, and shape it to blend naturally. Children remain comfortable throughout, and we explain each step along the way.
Why It Matters
- Prevents pain and sensitivity
- Reduces infection risk
- Protects against tooth fractures
- Avoids more extensive procedures later
Comfort & Care
Our team works at your child’s pace, providing reassurance and positive support to make the experience stress-free.
What Constitutes a Dental Emergency?
Most dental emergencies fall into one of three main categories:
- Health
- Function
- Aesthetics
Are you unable to eat, or do you have a chipped front tooth that’s too embarrassing to face work or school? If so, you need an emergency dentist who can see you as soon as possible, ideally the same day.
Some of the most common dental emergencies we treat include sharp or broken teeth, gum swelling, pain, and hypersensitivity. Other frequent issues include soft tissue lesions, such as ulcers under dentures, abscessed teeth, and traumatic injuries. Our team is here to provide prompt and compassionate care when you need it most.
