Recognizing the Signs You May Need a Filling
A cavity occurs when you have tooth decay, a common issue many people experience at least once in their lifetime. Additionally, the early stages of a cavity can be hard for the average person to detect and many people don’t experience obvious symptoms right away. The most common way to fix a cavity is to provide the patient with a filling. When you have a cavity, our experienced San Antonio dentist will remove the decayed portion of your tooth, clean the affected area, and then fill the cavity with one of a variety of common substances, such as composite resins or porcelain. The filling is then molded to match your natural tooth shape.
Symptoms of a cavity include:
- Tooth sensitivity
- Tooth pain
- Pain when eating, drinking, or biting down
- Holes or pits in your teeth
- Brown, black, or white staining
It is important to have cavities filled promptly as an untreated cavity can lead to more serious issues like infection and permanent damage. Having a cavity filled not only removes the decayed material but also seals the tooth, preventing further damage.

I took my young grandson into the office to have a chipped tooth repaired. This was his first visit to this office. From the time we walked in we were warmly greeted by the representative at the front desk as well as the entire staff. Dr. Hasheem was extremely patient and compassionate. She took extra time to explain the procedure to him and keep him updated of his progress while he was sitting in the exam chair. The dental technician also took time to reassure him and check on his comfort. In a short time the procedure was completed and the result looked great! I highly recommend Shaenfield Family Dental as your primary dental office! Thank you Dr Shaheem and your entire staff!- Terry Murphy

We had our first visit at Shaenfield Family Dental for my three kids’ cleanings. They made all of the kids feel comfortable and were very down to Earth. They did very 4 year old friendly x-rays and praised all the kids for being helpful and cooperative. Dr. Hasheem recommended us to a pediatric oral surgeon down the street for my six year old who needs more work involving anesthesia. We’ll definitely be routine clients!- Shelbie W
