Cavities happen — even with the best brushing habits. At Greenwoods Pediatric Dentistry Centre, we provide gentle, child-friendly fillings and restorations that are quick, comfortable, and designed just for growing smiles.
We know dental work can be scary for kids (and parents!), which is why we focus on making every treatment calm, compassionate, and stress-free — with extra time, lots of reassurance, and a whole lot of patience.
🦷 What Are Fillings?
When a cavity forms, it creates a small hole in the tooth that needs to be cleaned and sealed. A filling stops the decay from spreading, restores the tooth’s shape, and helps prevent future problems like pain or infection.
At Greenwoods Pediatric Dentistry Centre, we use tooth-coloured composite materials that blend in naturally — no silver or metal. They’re strong, safe, and perfect for little teeth.
