Child-Friendly Dental Fillings in Cibolo, TX

Even with regular brushing and flossing, kids can sometimes develop cavities that cause tooth pain and sensitivity. When a cavity forms, it’s important to deal with it quickly to prevent tooth decay from becoming a more serious problem. Cibolo Pediatric Dentistry can help with composite dental fillings. Dental fillings can replace the decayed part of a tooth while also blending in with your child’s natural teeth. If you suspect your child may have a cavity, call us today to schedule an appointment.

What Is A Dental Filling and What Are They Used For?

There are a variety of types of dental fillings available. Most frequently they’re made from materials like silver amalgams, porcelain, or plastic. We provide composite fillings, which are made out of a resin that can closely match the appearance of the surrounding teeth. The main purpose of a filling is to replace parts of a tooth that have been removed due to decay. Fortunately, they’re also flexible enough to be used for teeth that have been chipped or broken in some way.

Is The Dental Filling Procedure Painful?

Our goal is always to provide gentle dentistry that young patients don’t have to be anxious about. To make the filling procedure painless, we use a local anesthetic to numb the affected tooth and surrounding area. With the anesthetic your child will remain awake and alert, and will only feel some pressure on the tooth. If you’re concerned that your child may still experience any dental anxiety, we can offer sedation dentistry to take all the stress out of their visit.

How Much Do Dental Fillings Cost?

If you’re looking to know how much a pediatric dentist near you might charge for dental fillings, the amount can vary. Factors like the location and number of teeth that need fillings as well as the material used can affect the final price. Compared to more advanced restorative procedures however, fillings are generally much less expensive. They tend to be cheaper than extractions and don’t require tooth replacement options. Dental insurance can also contribute towards the cost of fillings in most cases. If you’re still concerned about financing treatment we want to help!
