Choose Effective and Pain-Free Tooth Filling in King of Prussia, PA!

Our specialists in general dentistry know that a composite tooth filling is one way to repair a tooth damaged by decay. It solves the problem with a cost effective solution in just one visit. Sometimes the dentist starts with a temporary tooth filling, a procedure used in emergency situations.

After a while, you will go back to replace the emergency tooth filling with a permanent one. This solution is also recommended before we cap the tooth with a cosmetic ceramic crown covering the filling. In this way, you will continue to have a white and bright smile and no one will guess that you have dental work done to repair tooth decay.

After performing cavity filling, the dentist applies a cosmetic cap to restore your tooth look.

What Are Tooth Fillings with Composite?

A dentist filling a cavity will use a procedure involving placing composite material into the cavity and sealing it. This is a general dentistry procedure that replaces old tooth filling repair with mercury as part of the amalgam. 

Composite cavity filling is dental cement made from various resins and other substances that have the role of strengthening the tooth. Resin is a safe, natural material, which bonds very well with the tooth.

What You Can Expect during the Tooth Filling Process

Dental filling for a typical tooth in your mouth starts by removing the decay completely. The first step is to numb the tooth with a local anesthesia, so that you are comfortable and pain free. The second step is to perform a cavity preparation in your tooth that allows us to access the decay.

Once the decay is removed and the cavity preparation is completed, the new permanent tooth filling is applied. After the bite is checked to fit your comfort and the restoration is polished, the procedure is then complete.

Having a healthy set of teeth is something that requires semi-constant monitoring and tooth filling repair. This is why we’re here to help make it as easy as possible for you. Although, the process of decay never ends and that is why we recommend regular dental cleaning visits twice a year with check-up x-rays to monitor your dental health.

Temporary emergency tooth filling is followed by a permanent filling after a few days of recovery

The Most Important Benefits of Tooth Fillings

A very frequent occurrence for people who have not had regular checkups is the cavity formation. This is especially common in young adults that had no dental issues growing up that tend to forfeit regular checkups since there is no pain in their teeth. This can lead to a lot of cavities that people are unaware of, and if there is no nerve pain, these are usually treated with a dental filling. 

The tooth filling procedure has many benefits:

Reduced Sensitivity in the Affected Tooth

Sensitivity to sweet, hot and cold foods and drinks is one of the symptoms of a cavity. After tooth filling, you will be able to enjoy your favorite dishes and sweets without any discomfort and pain.

Maintaining the Natural Look of Your Teeth

An experienced dentist will cover the filling with a cosmetic cap which looks just like your tooth. Nobody will be able to guess that you have a cavity filling.

It Is a Fast Procedure

A tooth filling procedure is done in just one appointment. Only in very special cases you will need an emergency temporary filling followed by a permanent one.

I have severe anxiety from a dental experience in the military and have had panic attacks in a dental office so bad that I’ve passed out. I am so very thankful that I found this practice!! The dental assistants are AMAZING and the dentists are PHENOMENAL! I have never felt so comfortable in a dentist office as I am here. They are so compassionate, caring and understanding.I’ve been to other practices where they have no regard for your comfort and could care less about your anxiety over dental work. I had one dentist at another practice literally shove a tool into a cavity on a tooth that I was already feeling pain in, this was after I politely asked that he just not touch that tooth without it being numbed first. He actually yelled at me that he couldn’t “treat” me unless he could feel how deep the cavity was. It sent a ridiculous pain right through my jaw and I literally got up and said no f’ing way I’m staying here. I ended up at KOP for that tooth and the experience was night and day different.I have had both Dr. Soffin and Dr. Pickel and they are the best. They are very cognizant of your comfort, pain level and the work they do is excellent. Both are super nice gentlemen. It is very relieving knowing that I can finally get the dental treatments I need without having the anxiety that I used to.

Highly highly recommend. Came in this morning for a root canal. Novocain does not work for me and I cannot tolerate nitrous oxide. To say I was anxious would be an understatement.

Highly highly recommend. Came in this morning for a root canal. Novocain does not work for me and I cannot tolerate nitrous oxide. To say I was anxious would be an understatement. Dr Soffin really took his time with me to do some troubleshooting before ultimately deciding a root canal wasn't the way to go (thank god). He really took his time to explain everything to me in a way I could understand. He called in Dr Rapine for a second opinion and not only did he agree with Dr Soffin, he also offered some new insights. You can tell these guys are pros at what they do. I felt cared for and listened to. Shout out to Jo Ann, the dental assistant who I can only describe as the 'emotional support lady' I needed. You guys were awesome!

The office staff is very friendly and welcoming. Checking in and out were very easy and organized. Dr. Neuman is very personable as well as a great dentist. This was my first visit to this office and will definitely be back.

Friendly staff and great service. Unlike most dental offices you are treated like a person and not as a number to hit revenue goals. Will recommend this office to anyone
