You may need a filling if you have tooth sensitivity to hot or cold foods, sweets, a visible hole or dark spot, food getting stuck in one spot, or pain when you bite. Many early cavities have no symptoms, so Dr. Sepi Dashti checks for them with digital X-rays at your regular checkup.
No. The dentist numbs the tooth with local anesthesia before treatment, so most people feel only light pressure. Your tooth may feel a little sensitive for a few days afterward, which is normal.
Most fillings take 20 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and number of cavities. In most cases, dentists complete a filling in a single visit.
Tooth-colored (composite) fillings match the shade of your natural teeth, so they blend in and are hard to notice. They bond directly to the tooth, which helps protect the remaining tooth structure.
Tooth-colored fillings usually last 5 to 10 years or longer with good care. Brushing twice a day, flossing, and regular checkups help them last.
Wait until the numbness wears off before eating, so you don’t bite your cheek or tongue. If your bite feels uneven or the tooth stays sensitive for more than a week or two, call us at (773) 506-2033 for a quick adjustment.
Yes, in most cases. Most PPO plans cover fillings, often at about 70–80% after your deductible. Sigma Dental Clinic also accepts Medicaid for children and adults, and Cherry payment plans can cover the rest. We check your benefits before treatment. See the insurance plans we accept.
