A filing is a medical way to help restore normal functioning and shape of a tooth in case of decay or tooth damage. If your dentist is filling your tooth that means he or she is removing tooth material which has already been decayed, cleans affected area followed by cleaning the cavity with filling material. Once the cavity area is closed, bacteria will not find a way to enter the cavity. Hence, it helps to prevent any further decay.
There are different types of materials which are used in the filling including gold, composite resins a kind of tooth-coloured filling, porcelain and an amalgam which is an alloy of silver, mercury, tin and sometimes zinc too.
