Cavity filling
My daughter is soon is going to get a dental filling done for her cavities. She has one permanent and two temporary teeth that needs filling. The doctors asked me two questions : do you want your child to have a white filling or silver filling? And Do you want us to use anesthesia or nitrous oxide?
I kindly request you to answer my question as soon as possible so I can make the right decision for my daughter's problem.

hello mam,
In my personal opinion U can go for a white filling. It is better for kids. and for fillings no need for nitrous oxide. you can go ahead with local anaesthesia.
