Questions Parents Ask

Fillings & Bonding FAQs

What is the difference between a filling and bonding?

A filling repairs a cavity after the dentist removes decay. Bonding can repair a chip or change a tooth's shape. Both may use tooth-colored material, but the right treatment depends on the amount of healthy tooth remaining.

Does a baby tooth with a cavity always need a filling?

Not always. The dentist considers the cavity's size, symptoms, infection risk, and how long the tooth is expected to remain. Ask about the recommended treatment, alternatives, and what could happen if treatment is delayed.

Does bonding require numbing?

Some bonding can be completed without numbing, while deeper cavities or sensitive teeth may require local anesthesia.

Can bonding fix a chipped front tooth?

Often, yes. The dentist will evaluate the chip, tooth health, and bite first.

Yes. Little Teeth is located in Stratford, CT and welcomes families from Milford, Bridgeport, Trumbull, Fairfield, Shelton, and nearby towns for fillings & bonding.
