Why Children May Need Dental Fillings
Cavities can develop even with good brushing habits, especially in hard-to-clean areas of the mouth. Common reasons children need fillings include:
- Tooth decay from sugars and starches
- Deep grooves in molars
- Inconsistent brushing or flossing
- Weakened enamel
- Previous cavities
Tooth-Coloured Fillings for Kids
We use tooth-coloured (composite) fillings whenever possible to restore children’s teeth naturally.
Benefits of tooth-coloured fillings include:
- Natural appearance that blends with teeth
- Strong, durable materials
- Mercury-free
- Preservation of more natural tooth structure
- Comfortable and effective restoration
