Bonded Filings
Bonded Filings
What are bonded fillings made of?
Dental bonded filling materials can be gold; porcelain; silver amalgam (or we call in layman term as silver fillings) that is made of mercury mixed with silver, tin, zinc and copper; or a white composite resin of plastic and glass called a bonded filling. At Keele MajorMac Dental Centre, Dr. Jacqueline Ha and her associates do not use silver fillings at all and they employ well matched bonded fillings to the natural tooth colour.
What do I need to prepare at my filling appointment?
Dr.Jacqueline Ha or her associates begin with the administration of a local anesthetic on the area around the tooth or teeth that need to be done.
They then wait for an appropriate amount of time for the settling of local anesthetic, all decay in the tooth is removed and the tooth is prepared for the dental filling. Proper technique is done to ensure the filling bonds completely to the tooth surfaces.
Once the bonded filling is completely adhered to the tooth surfaces, the surface of the filling will be adjusted to the proper and comfortable bite, then is polished thus ensuring the texture of the filling is consistent with the colouration and the smoothness of the natural tooth.
What happens after my bonded filling?
Many patients will not perceive any difference following their bonded tooth filling. However, in some cases, due to the extension of the decay (too deep to the nerve, or too large, or too deep on to the root surfaces), some patients may experience post-operative teeth sensitivity. The sensitivity may linger for a short time as one or two days then disappear. At Keele MajorMac Dental Centre, your care, comfort and dental treatment are always our up and foremost attention.

My family and I have been coming here for years. The staff are wonderful & the atmosphere is always warm and welcoming.I am terrified of needles and pain, and had an implant procedure today which I have been putting off for years due to the fear! Dr. Ha & her team went the extra mile to make sure I had a pleasant experience despite my fears. She put on relaxing music to help me calm down & stay relaxed during the entire procedure and constantly made sure I was doing okay.
I highly recommend Dr. Ha if you are looking for a new dental professional to take care of your teeth & make you smile.

I had very crooked teeth and went to few dentists to ask about options to straighten my teeth. My aunt told me to come here and I came to check out. The receptionist was very nice, helpful, and knowledgeable. She helps me feel at ease because I am scared of the dentists. To my surprise, Dr. Ha is a very fun and friendly dentist. She spent lots of time and explained in details what I need to do to take care of my teeth during the time I wear braces. I was so scared when I had to remove my four teeth in order to resolve my crooked teeth. Dr. Ha did it so fast, no pain and I was very comfortable with her. Dr. Ha also placed braces on my teeth and now I have beautiful straight teeth, done earlier than I expected and I am so thankful that she is my dentist.
I strongly recommend all the clients I meet at my work place to see her for any dental treatment they need. Dr. Ha is truly a five star dentist with her exceptional skills, profound depth of knowledge and a great sense of humour. I highly recommend her. 😉😉😉

This dental centre has longer operating hours then most clinics in Vaughan which accommodate to my availabilities. The dentist and their associate are very nice and knowledgeable in their work of specialty. The staff at the dental centre are very professional and welcoming. They take on new clients and they have appointments after 6 p.m on weekdays.
I recommend all families and neighbours to give this dental centre a chance to work on your teeth if you live in this area of Vaughan.
