Dental Fillings in Torrance

Dental fillings are a common procedure used to treat cavities or tooth decay. Fillings help prevent minor decay from allowing bacteria to spread deeper into the tooth’s pulp.

You may need a filling for any of the following reasons:

  • You have chipped teeth.
  • There is space between two teeth.
  • Cracked or broken teeth.
  • Decayed or worn teeth.

The procedure itself takes up to an hour, making it a relatively quick treatment. Local anesthesia is applied to numb the area and keep you comfortable throughout the process. The filling is then shaped specifically to match the shape and function of your tooth.
