High-Quality Dental Fillings in Oklahoma City, OK
Tooth fillings help repair cavities and prevent further decay, restoring the function and appearance of your tooth. Dr. Sigmon carefully removes decayed portions of the tooth, cleans the area, and applies a durable dental filling to strengthen and protect your tooth structure. These fillings also help fix chipped teeth, close small gaps, and restore minor fractures. By addressing cavities early, you can avoid extensive dental work and keep your smile in top condition.

Can you eat after getting a cavity filled?
It’s best to wait until the local anesthesia wears off before eating to avoid biting your cheek or tongue. Stick to soft foods for the first 24 hours and avoid sticky or hard items.
-
How do I know if I need a filling or a crown?
A dental filling works for minor decay, while crowns are necessary for extensive damage or weakened tooth structures. Dr. Sigmon will evaluate your condition and recommend the best option for your specific situation.
