White Fillings
Mercury & Amalgam Free Fillings
Most cavities start small. They are often so small that very often the only way to detect them is to pay a visit to your dentist. During your routine check-up your dentist will examine each of your teeth in order to determine which of them may be in need of fillings to repair those cavities. A tooth filling will help to protect your tooth from succumbing to further damage and decay.
It is estimated that by the age of 18 each person will have had at least one cavity. The sooner that cavities are treated the sooner more severe dental concerns can be staved off.
It can be tempting to delay getting a tooth filling. The reality is that the decay won’t slow down. The best course of action, in order to preserve the tooth and get some toothache relief, is to get a filling done.
What are white fillings?
Get results you love
In years past most dentists used amalgam fillings to treat cavities and other larger tooth decay. This type of tooth filling did work well but it very often caused a few aesthetic issues when it was used to treat decay on very visible teeth. Dental amalgam is a metal alloy combination that has a very obvious presence when it’s in place. It was the restorative material preferred by dentists for many years because of its durability, strength and relatively low cost.
Our clinic does not rely on amalgam fillings to treat the cavities that our patients present with.
Today our dentists rely on a composite material filling that can be matched to the colour of your natural tooth. White fillings offer a strong bond when in place and they will prove to be durable.
What are fillings used to treat?
If you are struggling with toothache you may find that your dentist appointment reveals one or more cavities. The only way to truly get toothache relief is to get a filling on those teeth that are suffering from damage or decay.
Without a tooth filling the decay will only continue to expand and lead to additional concerns, as well as the potential for tooth loss.
Porcelain fillings and other composite fillings can be used to treat cavities, chipped and broken teeth.
What is the filling procedure like?
Getting a tooth filled or restored can typically be done in one short visit to the clinic. Patients can expect to spend between 30 and 60 minutes in the dentist chair but it does largely depend on the extent of damage to the tooth.

Many patients want to do a comparison of Six Month Smiles vs Invisalign. Both offer a discreet and clear way of getting that straight smile that you’ve been dreaming of.
-
The tooth will be exposed to a light that will speed up the setting time. Once the filling material has set and hardened your dentist may shape and polish it so that you can that completely natural look.
-
Patients should feel little to no discomfort during the procedure. After the tooth filling procedure there should be no discomfort and patients should be able to resume normal eating and drinking. Any sensitivity should pass within a few days.
Restorative dentistry is so much more than restoring function to a tooth. It includes restoring a smile. This is why white tooth filling is the best choice for today’s dental patient. The composite material that is used is safe and offers natural-looking results.
The material can be closely matched to the colour of your natural teeth so that you get a discreet repair to the cavity. Some Dental Clinics use Mercury & Amalgam fillings which have proven to have negative effects to the tooth and the patients health, our fillings are Amalgam Free!

Crown dental 1st of all fixed my teeth few fillings had to redo a root canal and even a chipped tooth and then some crown's!! and after all that offered me a valplast??

I have been attending Crown dental for many years now. I am impressed by the professionalism and high standards every time I visit Crown Dental. All treatments have been explained to me before the treatments, and the team made sure to put me at ease. I cannot thank Crown Dental enough, and would recommend them to everyone.

I was very lucky to come across Crown Dental 8 years ago. While other dentists were offering extremely complicated and unaffordable treatments, Erika came up with a much simpler and affordable solution to my issues. I have been going to Crown Dental all these years and have got all my dental work done there: crowns, extractions, cleanings and check-ups... I would definitely recommend Erika and her team in Crown Dental to anyone looking for a top quality, reliable and friendly dentist.
May 1, 2021Getting an Invisalign treatment done here. Erika and her assistant are extremely nice people, not once did I ever feel pressured into forking out lots of money like at other dentists. I would 100% recommend family and friends to at least have a check up here and you'll see that it's a positive and professional experience all round.

I just had a visit with Dr Joanna today for a routine clean and to ask about veneers . during the consultation she noticed something more sinister with an infection that's been going on for over 15yrs . she was so informative,caring and really listened to all my questions and worries. most dentists I find are just there to make money but I found wirh joanna that she really wanted to help and not rush into veneers when there was concerns with my gums I may have a longer road then expected but I know I'm in good hands 🙏

I went for a check up at Crown Dental two weeks ago, after looking at my teeth for approximately 30 seconds the dentist told me I had been grinding my teeth therefore needing a mouthguard/splint and had three cavities. I was shocked as I had no prior issues with my teeth and was not experiencing any sensitivity. I was very distressed that my teeth had deteriorated so rapidly I wanted to get a second opinion. I went to a different dentist in Dublin and I was told my teeth were 100% fine. Therefore I would NOT recommend visiting this dentist.
