Dental fillings repair tooth damage caused by cavities, cracks, or minor injuries. Your dentist removes the decayed part of the tooth and restores the space with a strong, tooth-coloured material that blends naturally with your smile.
A filling is a quick, single-sitting procedure that usually takes less than 30 minutes, yet it plays a major role in protecting the tooth for the long run. By sealing the area and preventing bacteria from entering, fillings stop decay from progressing, relieve sensitivity, and restore normal chewing comfort and strength.
Dental fillings work by sealing the cleaned cavity with a strong, biocompatible material that bonds to the tooth. This creates a protective barrier that blocks bacteria, stops decay from spreading, and restores the tooth’s natural strength.
The material hardens in place, allowing the tooth to regain its shape, stability, and chewing function. By reinforcing weakened areas and preventing food or bacteria from entering, fillings keep the tooth healthy and comfortable for years.
A quick, single-sitting treatment that restores strength, comfort, and a natural smile.

Not every cavity can be treated with a simple filling. The right treatment depends on how deep the decay is and how much of the tooth is affected. Here’s a quick guide to help you understand what your dentist may recommend:
| Factor | Filling | Root Canal (RCT) | Crown |
|---|---|---|---|
| Decay Level | Small–moderate cavity | Deep decay near the nerve | Large cavity / weak tooth |
| Pain / Symptoms | Mild sensitivity | Severe or spontaneous pain | Used if tooth structure is weak or damaged |
| Tooth Condition | Tooth structure mostly intact | Swelling or prolonged sensitivity | Cracks or major tooth loss |

Common questions about Dental Fillings
A dental filling restores a tooth damaged by decay, cracks, or fractures. The dentist removes the affected tissue, cleans the cavity, and fills it with a suitable material to restore the tooth’s shape and function. Without a filling, the cavity deepens, reaches the pulp, and eventually requires root canal treatment or extraction.
The main types are tooth-coloured composite resin, glass ionomer, ceramic (inlay/onlay), and silver amalgam. Composite resin is the most popular choice, it matches tooth colour, bonds directly to enamel, and requires less drilling than amalgam. Clove Dental uses tooth-coloured composite as its standard material for both aesthetics and durability.
Signs include toothache, sensitivity to hot or cold, visible dark spots or holes, food consistently getting stuck, or a rough edge you can feel with your tongue. However, early cavities often have no symptoms at all, only dental X-rays can detect them reliably. A 6-monthly check-up at Clove Dental catches cavities before they worsen.
No. Dental fillings are performed under local anaesthesia, so you feel no pain during the procedure, only mild pressure or vibration. Post-procedure sensitivity for a few days is normal and resolves on its own. Clove Dental’s 10x safety protocols and trained dentists ensure a calm, pain-free filling experience across all clinics.
Most dental fillings are completed in a single appointment of 30–45 minutes. The time depends on the cavity’s size, depth, and location. Composite resin fillings cure instantly under a curing light, so you can eat soft foods shortly after. Indirect ceramic inlays require two visits due to laboratory fabrication.
Composite resin fillings last 7–10 years; ceramic inlays can last 15+ years with proper care. Longevity depends on the material, the size of the filling, biting forces, and oral hygiene habits. Regular 6-monthly check-ups at Clove Dental allow dentists to monitor filling integrity and replace them before secondary decay develops underneath.
