Dental fillings are restorative treatments used to repair cavities and damaged teeth caused by decay or trauma. The process involves removing the affected tooth material, cleaning the area, and filling the resulting void with a dental filling material, usually amalgam, gold, or composite resin. The restored tooth can function normally while maintaining an aesthetic appearance.
