Fillings and Sealants

Dental fillings are not permanent and typically last between 5 and 15 years, depending on the material used. They can fail due to normal wear, new decay around the filling, or damage from grinding and chewing hard foods. This problem is more common than you think. Nearly half of dental restorations fail within 10 to 15 years due to various factors. Understanding why your fillings keep failing can help you protect your teeth and avoid the cycle of repeated dental visits.

You may think every cavity needs a drill and a filling. That is not always true. If your dentist finds tooth decay early, you may have another option. Yes, you can reverse some early cavities without a drill, and Curodont cavity treatment helps your tooth repair itself before the damage gets worse. Curodont works on early enamel decay. It supports natural mineral repair within the tooth, rather than cutting away healthy structure.
