WHAT PROCEDURES ARE NEEDED FOR DENTAL FILLINGS?

Dental fillings usually only take one visit to complete. At the start of your treatment visit, Dr. Stankewitz will completely anesthetize your tooth so that you will be completely without pain.  After removing all decay, the uncured filling material will be added and shaped to the cavity and a high intensity white light is used to harden it. Your visit can be expected to be about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
