During the appointment, a dentist will numb the area around the tooth using local anesthesia. Next, the decay will be completely removed and the hole will be filled with the chosen material. You can leave right after your appointment, though it is recommended to have a follow-up to ensure the health of your tooth filling.

Types of Dental Filling
Composite Filling
Composite fillings are a common choice for patients as they are tooth-colored to match your natural smile. This can then be suitable to be used for the front teeth as well. It is made with a combination of a ceramic and plastic compound.
Gold Filling
Proceeding with gold filling brings great durability with powerful strength for chewing forces. Some also prefer gold for its aesthetics over silver and as an accessory that pleases the eye. One disadvantage you may come across is the cost, especially in comparison to amalgam.
Amalgam/Silver Filling
These are metal fillings that can be made with silver, copper tin, and zinc. In many cases, this material has longer durability than composite resin and can withstand strong chewing abilities. If you are concerned about costs, then amalgam fillings are a go-to.
