Fillings

If your tooth has a minor fracture or has been damaged through decay, you will need a filling to restore its shape and function. We offer the traditional amalgam fillings which are durable and inexpensive. We also offer white fillings which are made from composite material and are popular with patients from Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells as they blend in with your natural teeth colour.

Inlays and onlays

These are another type of dental restoration used to fix cavities which are too big to be repaired by a filling but not big enough to warrant a crown. An inlay fits between the cusps of the tooth whilst an onlay fits over one or more cusps which restores the chewing surface.

Invisalign Maidstone

Crowns

If you have a tooth which has greater damage such as a larger fracture or more extensive tooth decay, you may need a crown. A dental crown sits on top of the damaged tooth covering it completely to provide strength and protection.

Invisalign Maidstone

Bridge

A dental bridge is a solution to fill a gap left from a missing tooth. A new prosthetic tooth is kept in place using crowns on either side of the missing tooth.

Invisalign Maidstone

Root canal treatment

If the pulp inside of your tooth becomes infected, usually through decay or through some form of trauma, you will need root canal treatment to remove the infection and prevent it from returning. 

Invisalign Maidstone

Extraction

Extraction of a tooth may be necessary if your tooth is severely damaged or decayed and cannot be saved. A tooth may also be extracted as part of planned treatment for example with orthodontic work, dental implants or if wisdom teeth are impacted or causing problems.

FAQs

Why might I need a dental crown and what is the process?

You may need a crown to protect a damaged or decayed tooth or after you’ve had root canal treatment. A crown can also be used to anchor a dental bridge. You will usually need two appointments to fit a crown. We will take impressions of your tooth to custom make your bespoke dental crown. Your tooth will be carefully shaped to fit the crown.

Which is the best filling if I have sensitive teeth?

White fillings are a good option if you have sensitive teeth as they are made of composite material. Amalgam fillings are made of metal and will therefore react by slightly contracting and expanding when you consume anything hot or cold. White fillings do not react to temperature changes.

Will I get any symptoms if I have an infection in my tooth?

You may need root canal treatment if you experience any of the following symptoms – sudden sensitivity to temperature changes, discolouration to your tooth, inflamed gums, toothache, tenderness in the gum, swelling to the cheek or jaw.

I can thank you enough for your speedy appointment. Your friendly and professional approach put me at such ease.

Once again thank you so much. Xx

Outstanding emergency and now ongoing treatment for one of my students! We absolutely could not ask for better service, and Dr Chaudhary is probably the best in the business for paediatric dental care. Thank you a million times.

Emma Shackleton
After avoiding going to the dentist for many years Smileology Sevenoaks have eased my anxiety and put me at ease. Dentist Luisa and Hygienist Katherine have been so wonderfully kind and caring in delivering the best care for my teeth. 100% recommend this dentist surgery.
Chris Hart
Very friendly staff!
Dan Foley
Always an excellent service, friendly and professional.
Gail Walker
I had become very disheartened with another dental practice I'd been a patient with, so I decided to try another practice. I was given an appointment initially for an assessment with Luisa. I couldn't have been made to feel more welcome as soon as I walked into the practice. Alice the practice manager was so friendly & professional. Luisa & her assistant Holly made me feel very comfortable & explained what was actually going on with my teeth & suggested the treatment I needed going forward. The practice was spotlessly clean & a pleasant atmosphere with a bit of music in the background to calm any anxious patient! Even after my first visit I felt this was the practice for me!
Stuart Allen
Charming, funny, kind and professional. Very happy with my cleaned teeth.
