Eastchester tooth filling
Many people experience a cavity at some point in their lives. Cavities are quite common, though not nearly as rampant as they were over a hundred years ago before significant advances in dental practices and oral care were more widely implemented. Despite the changes and advances in oral hygiene and care, it is still important to keep up with brushing and flossing. It is also important to visit your dentist regularly as well. Here with Todd D Wortman, DDS, you can benefit from regular dental exams and cleanings, as well as receive the proper care if you happen to develop a cavity or other similar issue where you may need an
Eastchester tooth filling.
It is always best to have a cavity treated as soon as possible. If not, the cavity could persist and the decay causing the cavity can make the area of infection grow. If a cavity is not kept in check, the decay can affect your entire tooth. If a tooth is compromised, it may need to be removed completely. At this stage, tooth decay can even spread to adjacent teeth and cause widespread damage. When a cavity is spotted, a dental filling can be used to stop any further infection. Here with Todd D Wortman, DDS, you can have any cavities treated thoroughly. First, all decayed portions of the tooth need to be removed. Once that is complete, the remaining hole can be filled with a dental filling. When it comes to Eastchester tooth filling, Dr. Wortman can provide you with a tooth colored filling so that your tooth looks completely normal after treatment and the appearance of your smile is not altered.
It’s important to keep up with dental checkups twice a year to make sure that cavities are caught early on, especially since they do not always show obvious symptoms. For
