Cavities and Fillings
Eventually, your dentist may inform you that you may need a filling because you have a cavity. A cavity forms on your tooth when decay caused by eating and drinking rich foods such as soda, cakes, candy, and other sweets allow bacteria to build up plaque on your teeth.
If a cavity is not treated, you can experience more serious problems which can lead to root canal therapy.
The best things you can do to prevent cavities is to practice good oral hygiene which include brushing with a fluoride toothpaste, flossing and rinsing.
We can also apply special sealants and varnishes to stop cavities from even forming.
