Dental Fillings Lafayette, LA

Dental fillings are one of the most common and effective solutions for repairing teeth that have been damaged by decay or minor fractures. At Price & Associates Family Dentistry, we use dental fillings to restore the health, function and appearance of your teeth, allowing you to smile with confidence. If you have a cavity or notice a chipped tooth, a filling can help prevent further damage and ensure your teeth remain strong and functional.

Our dentists and team primarily use composite fillings, which are made from a tooth-colored material that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. Composite fillings are durable, aesthetically pleasing and an excellent choice for restoring both front and back teeth. During your visit, we will ensure the filling matches the natural shade of your tooth for a smooth and virtually invisible result.

The process of placing a dental filling is straightforward and typically completed in one visit. First, our dentists will numb the area to ensure you feel comfortable throughout the procedure. Next, we will carefully remove the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth and thoroughly clean the area to eliminate any remaining bacteria. Once the tooth is prepared, we will apply the composite material in layers, carefully shaping it to match the natural contours of your tooth. Finally, the filling is hardened with a special curing light and polished to create a smooth, lasting restoration.

Getting a dental filling is essential for stopping decay from spreading and protecting the structure of your tooth. Left untreated, a small cavity can develop into a larger issue, potentially requiring more extensive treatment like a dental crown or root canal therapy.

If you suspect you have a cavity or have experienced minor tooth damage, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with Dr. Ashley Price or Dr. Chelsea Guilliot. We are committed to providing you with comfortable, high-quality care and personalized treatment options to meet your needs.
