Dental Fillings in Edmonton, AB
Why Dental Fillings Are Important
Dental fillings repair teeth damaged by decay, wear, or minor fractures. Treating cavities early prevents pain, infection, and the need for more extensive treatment like root canals or crowns. Benefits of dental fillings include:
- Stopping the progression of tooth decay
- Restoring strength and function
- Relieving sensitivity or discomfort
- Preserving natural tooth structure
- Preventing future dental emergencies
As part of our preventive dentistry in Edmonton, fillings help protect your long-term oral health.
