Dental Fillings in Malton, Mississauga – Tooth-Coloured & Long-Lasting

Cavities are one of the most common dental problems, but they’re easy to treat when caught early. At Bansal Family Dentistry in Malton, we offer tooth-coloured composite fillings that look completely natural and blend seamlessly with your smile.

What Is a Dental Filling?

A dental filling repairs a tooth damaged by decay (a cavity). We remove the decayed portion of the tooth, clean the area, and fill it with a durable, tooth-coloured material. The result is a strong tooth that looks and feels completely natural.

Signs You May Need a Filling

  • Toothache or sensitivity to hot, cold, or sweet foods
  • Visible hole or dark spot on a tooth
  • Pain when biting down
  • A cracked or broken tooth
  • Food getting stuck in the same spot

Types of Fillings We Offer

Composite (Tooth-Coloured) Fillings

Our most popular option. Composite resin matches the colour of your natural tooth — no one will know you have a filling. They bond directly to the tooth structure, making them strong and conservative.

Amalgam Fillings

Traditional silver fillings. Extremely durable and cost-effective, though less aesthetically preferred for visible teeth.

The Filling Procedure – What to Expect

  • We numb the area with local anaesthetic for a completely comfortable experience
  • The decayed portion is removed and the tooth is cleaned
  • The filling material is placed and shaped to match your bite
  • Most fillings take 30–60 minutes

CDCP Coverage for Fillings

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) covers fillings for eligible patients. We accept CDCP at our Malton location — call us to confirm your coverage before booking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do fillings hurt?

No — we use local anaesthetic to completely numb the area. You may feel some pressure but should not feel pain. We work at your pace to keep you comfortable throughout.

How long do fillings last?

Composite fillings typically last 7–10 years with good oral hygiene. Amalgam fillings can last even longer. Regular checkups help us catch any wear before it becomes a problem.

Can children get fillings?

Yes — we fill cavities in baby teeth too. Treating decay in primary teeth is important to protect developing permanent teeth and prevent pain.
