Cavity Fillings

Cavity fillings in Los Angeles are one of the most common and effective dental treatments we provide at Mid-Wilshire Dental Care. Despite our best efforts, many people still need restorative care to repair a damaged or decayed tooth.

Dental Fillings in Los Angeles

All fillings use a common pliable material that is used to fill in an area of the teeth that doesn’t have any structure, probably as a result of treatment from decayed teeth.

Restorative Dentistry and Cavity Fillings in Los Angeles

If you are missing a tooth or have extensive damage, Dr. Bijan Afar may suggest a form of dental restoration. At Mid-Wilshire Dental Care, we offer a full range of solutions tailored to your unique dental needs.

Cavity Fillings in Los Angeles

Cavity fillings are the most common form of tooth restoration. They treat dental cavities, chips, or cracks by sealing the affected area and preventing future decay. Our team uses different types of filling materials to match the tooth color and structure, ensuring a natural, seamless look.

More Restoration Options

In addition to cavity fillings in Los Angeles, we provide restorative treatments such as dental crowns, bridges, implants, inlays, and onlays. Dental crowns are tooth-shaped caps that strengthen and protect damaged teeth. Bridges restore gaps by anchoring to adjacent teeth, while implants mimic natural teeth with titanium roots and porcelain crowns.

Do You Need Cavity Fillings in Los Angeles?

Some certain signs and symptoms show that you may need a tooth filling. If you experience any of the following, you should see your dentist:

At our practice, we will first conduct a dental examination and radiograph. If necessary, we will recommend white fillings based on the results. Should the result turn out positive, we advise you to schedule an immediate appointment to keep away any infection that could destroy the nerves in your teeth. This implies that time is of the essence, and whatever needs to be done should be done as fast as possible.

“Dr. Afar has been my dentist for over 5 years and always provides exceptional care. I’ve had multiple restorations, including gum grafts and implants, and his work is thorough and nearly painless. He patiently explains everything and even gave me his personal number for questions. He’s always been there in emergencies, too.”
