Here at Best Care Family Dental, some of the most common services our
dentist in Jackson Heights provides are in response to dental decay. Cavities are a highly prevalent problem when it comes to oral health today. The main reason that cavities begin to form in the teeth is because of the bacteria present in our mouths. Certain forms of bacteria, such as tartar and plaque, release an acid that eats away at tooth enamel, leaving cavities in its wake. Therefore, if bacteria is not properly removed through careful brushing and flossing habits, tooth decay is much more likely to develop. Diet can also be a significant factor in cavity development. Sticky, sugary foods can certainly increase your risk of cavity formation and tooth decay.

There are a few telltale signs that you have a cavity. If your tooth is in pain, extra sensitive to hot and cold temperatures, and especially if there are visible holes in the tooth, it is time to visit our
dentist in Jackson Heights for an examination and an evaluation of your symptoms. A simple exam, and sometimes an x-ray, is all that is needed to confirm a diagnosis. From there, treatment will be recommended.
The most common treatment for tooth decay is the use of a dental filling. Dental fillings can be made from a variety of materials and are customized to fit your tooth comfortably and effectively. Depending on the extent of your decay and the location of your cavity, our
dentist in Jackson Heights will recommend a specific form of dental filling to suit your needs. Dental fillings are a discreet and effective way to repair a tooth that has decayed, broken, chipped, and more.
If you are interested in learning more about dental fillings or any of the other services provided by our
