RESTORATIVE TREATMENTS
Your Experts for Stillwater Tooth Fillings & Cavity Repair
About The Procedure
Cavities that are not treated early can lead to root canals or even loss of teeth. A cavity can be diagnosed in several ways. Often a cavity is discovered during a routine cleaning and exam; it can appear as a soft area in the tooth that our explorers penetrate. Radiographs, or dental x-rays, performed by our Stillwater dentists help diagnose interproximal decay (a cavity between the teeth) and infections below the gum line that can be problematic. These diagnostic tools allow us to save more of your tooth structure. As Stillwater dentists, we aim to find teeth before decay leads to painful symptoms and requires tooth filling or cavity repair.
The Common Cavity
Cavities are the most common dental issue that can occur on the teeth. Many cavity-related issues arise due to not brushing or flossing regularly, needing routine cleanings, or a lack of knowledge in dental hygiene. Stillwater Dental Associates understands your concerns and issues with having a cavity. Our professional hygienists will ensure your comfort and answer any of your questions. In addition, we ensure a quick and painless procedure to eliminate your cavity issues.
