More about the treatment

Dental fillings

A dental filling is a white composite (plastic) material that replaces lost tooth structure due to cavities (caries), worn teeth, or a broken tooth. When cavities are present, the size of the filling will vary depending on the extent of the cavity or damage to the tooth. The treatment time will also differ based on the size of the filling. It is only after a diagnosis that we can determine whether you need a 1, 2, or 3-surface filling. You will receive thorough information during an examination, and the size of the filling will be included in your cost estimate.

For the restoration of an entire tooth, there is generally a need for a 4-surface filling out of a total of 5 surfaces on the tooth. If a large part of the tooth has broken, it may sometimes be more appropriate to place a crown on the tooth to preserve it, as a filling may not provide sufficient support to hold the tooth together.

Ofte stilte spørsmål om undersøkelsen

How often do I need a dental check-up?

The most common recommendation is once a year, but this is adjusted based on your history and needs. During your first visit, you will receive a recommendation for your next check-up, which can range from 6 to 24 months. This depends on factors such as previous cavity history, other treatment needs, tartar buildup, and whether there are early signs of decay that need to be monitored. The recommendation we provide is always tailored to the individual.

Why should I use dental floss or interdental brushes?

When cavities are starting to form, we always recommend using dental floss. It’s beneficial for preventing gum disease and cavities in between teeth (tooth decay). Gum disease appears as red, bleeding gums and can ultimately lead to tooth loss. Untreated tooth decay can also result in losing teeth. While brushing removes some plaque, it cannot reach between the teeth, where gum disease and decay are common. Therefore, dental floss or interdental brushes are effective tools. We provide guidance and instruction on how to use dental floss and/or interdental brushes, as well as recommend the appropriate sizes during your visits with us.

Is it harmful to bleach teeth?

As long as teeth whitening is done in consultation with your dentist, it is not harmful. This is to rule out any necessary treatments that may need to be done before whitening. Teeth whitening products purchased abroad often have a higher percentage of bleaching agents than what is recommended in Norway, which can lead to damage to both teeth and gums. We adhere to Norwegian guidelines regarding which bleaching agents are permitted and safe to use. With us, you receive custom-fitted whitening trays that do not harm teeth or gums, along with bleaching agents that have documented effectiveness. Teeth whitening is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, and we have an age limit of 18 years for teeth whitening.
