There are several types of dental fillings, each with its own advantages. The best option for you depends on the location of the filling, the extent of the damage, and your aesthetic preferences.
Gold and ceramic fillings are the most durable, often lasting more than 15 years.
Composite fillings require more precision to place and bond to the tooth, which increases the cost.
Composite and ceramic fillings are biocompatible and aesthetically pleasing, making them great choices for most patients.

Most patients feel little to no discomfort during the filling procedure. We use local anesthesia to numb the area, ensuring the process is as pain-free as possible. Afterward, it’s normal to experience some minor sensitivity, which usually subsides within a few days.
As a parent, you naturally have questions about your child’s dental health. Let’s address some of the most frequently asked questions:
If anesthesia is used, you shouldn’t feel pain during the procedure. We prioritize your comfort and can offer numbing options.
Some minor sensitivity may occur, but this usually fades within a few days.

At My Dentist Canberra, we focus on providing high-quality, long-lasting, and comfortable tooth fillings. Our experienced team ensures that every patient gets the right treatment to maintain a healthy, beautiful smile.
