Dental filling -What is it?
Dental filling is a way to restore a damaged tooth back to its normal shape and function by filling in the cavity with a filling material.
When should I get a filling done?
- Tooth decay.
- Trauma/Broken tooth
- Cavity prone tooth morphology (particularly in children).
Dental filling – Types
Glass Ionomer Filling: Made from a mixture of acrylic and a specific type of glass, these fillings release fluoride, which can help protect teeth from further decay.
Composite Filling: Made from a mixture of plastic resin and fine glass particles, these fillings are tooth-colored and blend in with natural teeth.
Each type of filling material is chosen based on the location of the cavity, the patient’s dental history, and aesthetic preferences.
Wisdom Tooth Removal/Dental Impaction
Wisdom tooth removal is often necessary because the tooth is considered impacted when it cannot properly erupt fully. This means it gets stuck below the gum line or the bone tissue. The four 3rd molars that appear much later in life, are most commonly affected. Consequently, impacted teeth can lead to significant dental problems swiftly. Therefore, understanding this common issue is key to a healthier mouth.

Problems associated with Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom teeth that are healthy and in the right position usually don’t cause problems. You may have a problem if any of the following occur:
- Your wisdom teeth break through your gums only partway because of a lack of space.
- They come in crooked or facing in the wrong direction causing cheek bite and ulcers at times
- Your wisdom teeth may get stuck (impacted) in your jaw and not be able to break through your gums leading to referred pain in jaw or head and neck
- They are so far back in your mouth or crowded that you have trouble cleaning around them
- Partially erupted teeth may also affect the tooth adjacent to it, by causing decay due to food lodging or resorption of the root of adjacent tooth
- A cyst may form around this impacted tooth. This can damage the bone or roots of adjacent teeth
Do I need Removal of Wisdom Teeth?
If your wisdom teeth are causing the following symptoms, in that case removal of the wisdom tooth would be recommended:
- Pain or jaw stiffness near an impacted tooth.
- Pain or irritation from a tooth coming in at an awkward angle and rubbing against your cheek, tongue, or top or bottom of your mouth.
- An infected swelling in the flap of gum tissue that has formed on top of an impacted tooth that has broken partway through the gum.
- Crowding of other teeth.
- Tooth decay or gum disease if there isn’t enough room to properly clean your wisdom tooth and nearby teeth.
Recovery after removal
- After surgery, swelling and tenderness in the face and neck are common, as is bruising. Ice packs and pain medications prescribed by the dentist or oral surgeon will help.
- Most people have little to no pain after surgery. You’ll likely have swelling and mild discomfort for 3 or so days. Your mouth may need a few weeks to completely heal.
When should you visit the dentist without any more delay?
- You should visit your dentist every 6 months for check-up. At these check-ups, small cavities are seen by the dentist and you are informed.
- You see black-spots/ depressions on your teeth
- You experience sensitivity to cold/sweet/while drinking
