How long do Dental Fillings take in Chiang Mai?

This will depend on your circumstances, but most can be done in less than hour. For large areas of decay, especially on bigger back teeth, an ‘indirect’ filling may be required where up to 3 surfaces of the tooth need treatment. These take longer, use more material and are more expensive.

Whichever type of filling is necessary the procedure is the same. Your dentist will first numb your mouth with a local anesthetic. The decayed material will be removed with a drill before the tooth is cleansed and filled. After the filling material has hardened your dentist will file and shape your tooth until it feels comfortable and your bite feels normal.
