FAQ
Yes, a regular dental filling (such as cavity fillings) usually requires the use of local anesthesia. The anesthesia is intended to minimize pain and discomfort during the filling procedure. It is administered through an injection in the area around the treated tooth, reducing sensitivity in that area during the process. After the procedure, the effect of the anesthesia may take some time to wear off, and the patient typically feels comfortable once its effect subsides.
