Dental Fillings for Your Children’s Smiles
If you want your children to have a bright smile and healthy teeth, their dentist will need to check for cavities. Whenever a child needs dental fillings, their parents will come to us with questions. We provide all the answers you may need. Our team will answer all your questions and ensure your child smiles brightly.
When and Why Does a Child Need Dental Fillings?
A child will likely need a cavity filling when they have a toothache. In addition, sensitivity to temperatures and pressure or sugary foods may indicate that a child needs a filling as well.
A dentist will notice that your children will need cavity fillings if there are dark areas on their teeth or a visible hole. A chipped or broken tooth also shows that a filling is necessary. In addition, your child will need a dental filling to repair cavities or small holes so that these cavities don’t turn into more significant dental problems in the future.
What Happens During a Tooth Filling?
When taking part in a tooth filling, a dentist will desensitize and numb your child’s mouth by injecting an anesthetic. Then, the dentist may give your child laughing gas or nitrous oxide to help calm them down if your son or daughter is nervous.
Then the dentist may place a rubber dam inside your child’s mouth. The next part involves the dentist using a laser or drill to remove the decaying part of the tooth. The very last step of the process involves filling the cavity to prevent bacteria from further damaging your child’s mouth. The process is painless and will greatly improve your dental health! At Goodland Dentistry, we ensure you or your child is relaxed and comfortable with any procedure.
