Kids get cavities often, but treating them can be quick and painless with the right care. At Cheshire Dental Associates, our children's dentist in Cheshire, CT, provides gentle, kid-friendly treatment to keep your child comfortable. Here’s how what to expect:
- Gently Numb the Area — We apply a topical numbing gel to the gums, then use a local anesthetic if needed to ensure your child feels no pain.
- Remove the Tooth Decay — Our children's dentist in Cheshire carefully removes the damaged portion of the tooth using tools designed for small teeth.
- Clean and Prepare the Tooth — We thoroughly clean the area and prepare the tooth for the filling.
- Place the Filling — We restore the tooth with a tooth-colored composite resin, which blends naturally with surrounding teeth.
- Polish and Check the Bite — Finally, we smooth the filling and adjust it for a natural, comfortable bite.
