What Happens When You Get a Filling?
Dr. Claudio Miro
When the doctor determines that you need to get a cavity filled, what is the process?
Treatment stages:
First the decay needs to be removed. The tooth will be prepared in order to remove the cavity. It is important to prevent further infection, that the all the decay is completely removed.
Then the area in which the decay was needs to be cleaned. This step is another to ensure that all the bacteria that was causing the cavity is completely eradicated to prevent further infection to the tooth.
Finally, the area in which the cavity was needs to be filled using one of the types of fillings.
