Dental Fillings & Bonding in Saddle Brook, NJ

Absolutely, it is still possible for tooth decay to occur on different parts of the tooth, specifically around the edges of a previously placed filling or, in rare cases, below it where decay has reappeared. Hence, it is crucial to uphold exceptional oral hygiene practices, consume a diet that is low in sugary drinks and treats, and ensure regular visits to our office for check-ups and proper dental care. Although tooth decay ranks second after the common cold in terms of occurrence, it can be largely prevented with these preventive measures.

At our clinic, we highly prioritize the convenience and well-being of our patients. In situations where cavities are found in neighboring teeth or within the same area of your smile, it might be feasible to address multiple teeth in a single visit. Nevertheless, the extent of dental work accomplished during each appointment is contingent upon a variety of factors. We take great care in ensuring that our patients are provided with clear and comprehensive information, and we customize every treatment plan and visit to cater to their individual requirements.

During a dental filling procedure, you will receive local anesthesia to guarantee your comfort. The targeted tooth will remain fully numbed for the duration of your appointment. It is important to note that the effects of the anesthesia will gradually diminish within one to two hours after the completion of the procedure, allowing normal sensations to gradually return.
