Gentle, precise, and natural-looking cavity repair at Luxe Aesthetics Islamabad.

Tooth decay or minor damage doesn’t always mean you need major dental work. At Luxe Aesthetics Islamabad, our Dental Fillings treatment offers a safe, quick, and aesthetic way to restore damaged teeth while maintaining your natural look and function.
Using high-quality, tooth-colored composite materials, our expert dentists repair cavities, cracks, and worn surfaces — ensuring your smile remains healthy, strong, and beautiful.

What Are Dental Fillings?

A dental filling is a restorative procedure that repairs minor tooth damage caused by cavities, decay, or small fractures.
During the treatment, the decayed or damaged portion of the tooth is removed, and the cleaned area is filled with a biocompatible material that restores the tooth’s original shape, strength, and function.

At Luxe Aesthetics, we specialize in aesthetic (tooth-colored) fillings that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth — so no one can tell you’ve had dental work done.

Step-by-Step Procedure

1. Examination & Diagnosis

Our dentist performs a thorough dental exam using digital X-rays to identify the extent of decay or damage.

2. Local Anesthesia

The area around the affected tooth is numbed to ensure a completely pain-free experience.

3. Decay Removal

All decayed or damaged tooth structure is carefully removed, leaving behind only healthy enamel and dentin.

4. Tooth Preparation

The tooth is shaped and cleaned to create a stable surface for the filling material.

5. Filling Placement

The composite resin is applied in layers, each one hardened with a special curing light for strength and precision.

6. Shaping & Polishing

The filled tooth is shaped and polished to match your bite and restore a smooth, natural finish.
