Are Tooth Colored Fillings Right for My Child? Long Beach
One way to decide whether tooth-colored fillings are the right choice for you is to consult with our pediatric dentist. Undergoing a consultation will help determine which type of treatment is best given your current condition, location of teeth involved and size of area that needs restoring and biting force placed on teeth. This ensures you can achieve a healthy looking smile!
The Process
The child is first made numb before the filling process begins-and with that, they no longer feel pain. Nevertheless, during preparation for a fill, the child may experience cold water spraying their mouth and pressure. The procedure doesn’t take very long and it’s mostly painless too! Afterward some children will experience sensitivity to their tooth which could last up to two weeks but eventually subsides over time.
