At Luxe Dental Care, we are dedicated to helping you maintain a healthy, beautiful smile. Dental fillings are one of the most common and effective treatments for cavities and damaged teeth. They play a crucial role in restoring the function and aesthetics of your teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
Case studies
Types of Fillings We Offer
At Luxe Dental Care, we offer a range of high-quality fillings to suit your needs and preferences.
Composite Resin Fillings:
Composite resin fillings are a popular choice due to their ability to match the natural colour of your teeth. These fillings are ideal for small to medium-sized cavities and are virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth, making them an excellent choice for visible areas.
Amalgam Fillings:
Amalgam fillings, made from a mixture of metals, have been used in dentistry for decades. They are highly durable and are often used for cavities in the back teeth where the forces of chewing are greatest. While they don’t match the colour of your teeth, they are a reliable option for long-term strength.
Glass Ionomer Fillings:
Glass ionomer fillings release fluoride, which helps protect your teeth from further decay. They are often used for fillings in areas not subjected to heavy chewing pressure or in paediatric dentistry. While they may not match the colour of your teeth as precisely as composite fillings, they offer excellent protection and are particularly beneficial for patients with a high risk of decay.
Abscessed Tooth
An abscessed tooth is a serious condition that can lead to severe pain, swelling, and the spread of infection to other parts of the body. Immediate treatment is crucial to prevent complications. At Luxe Dental Care, we’ll drain the abscess, eliminate the infection, and provide a treatment plan to restore your oral health.
The Filling Procedure
The process of getting a dental filling at Luxe Dental Care is straightforward and designed with your comfort in mind:
Initial Examination:
Our dentist will thoroughly examine your tooth and determine the best type of filling for your needs.
Local Anaesthesia:
To ensure a pain-free experience, we’ll administer local anaesthesia to numb the area around the affected tooth.
Decay Removal:
The decayed portion of the tooth will be carefully removed, and the area will be cleaned to prevent any infection.
Filling Placement:
The chosen filling material is then placed into the cavity, shaped, and polished to ensure it fits perfectly with your bite and looks natural.
Final Check:
Our dentist will make any necessary adjustments to ensure your bite is comfortable and the filling is properly set.

After getting a filling, it’s best to avoid eating or drinking until the anaesthesia wears off to prevent accidentally biting your cheek or tongue. Once the numbness has worn off, you can eat and drink as usual, but it’s a good idea to avoid very hard or sticky foods for the first 24 hours, especially if you’ve had a composite filling.
If your filling falls out, it’s important to contact Luxe Dental Care as soon as possible. A lost filling can expose the tooth to decay and infection, and it may cause discomfort or sensitivity. We’ll arrange an appointment to replace the filling and restore the tooth’s function and protection.
Dental fillings are a common and safe procedure, but like any dental treatment, there can be some risks. These may include temporary sensitivity, discomfort, or allergic reactions to the filling material, though these are rare. At Luxe Dental Care, we take every precaution to minimise risks and ensure your fillings are placed with precision and care. If you experience any unusual symptoms after your filling, please contact us for further assistance.
