Is tooth filling good?
Fillings help to protect teeth that have already been damaged by tooth decay from decaying any further. Once a tooth if filled up, any pain or discomfort associated with the cavity should go away.
Tooth fillings should not be painful. Even if you arrive at your dentist in pain, once the anaesthetic has been administered, you will not experience pain. During the dental filling procedure your dentist will clean the cavity and remove the infected material – which is the source of the pain.
A High Volume Suction device will be used. This suction pulls all particles away from the tooth as the filling is being drilled out. Powdered charcoal and chlorella are placed in your mouth under the rubber dam.
