Why it matters

When a filling or sealant may help

An exam can identify early decay and determine whether repair or preventive protection is appropriate.

  • Sensitivity to sweets or temperature
  • A visible spot or pit
  • Food repeatedly catches in one area
  • An exam or X-ray identifies decay risk

What to expect

Your treatment process

  1. 1

    Exam & X-ray

    We confirm the size and location of the cavity.

  2. 2

    Numb & gently clean

    We remove decay and prepare the tooth comfortably.

  3. 3

    Bond & shape

    Composite is sculpted directly onto the tooth and light-cured.

  4. 4

    Polish & adjust

    We refine your bite so the filling feels invisible.

Cost and planning

What affects the cost of this treatment

A filling is priced by how much tooth has to be rebuilt, which is why early treatment is usually the smaller job.

Size and number of surfaces

A small single-surface repair is a shorter appointment than rebuilding a cusp.

Which tooth

Back teeth take heavier chewing forces and need more robust restorations.

Material

Tooth-coloured composite and other restorative materials differ in handling and in how they are placed.

How deep the decay is

Decay close to the nerve may need extra protective steps or further treatment.

Sealants

Preventive sealants are quick and are usually applied to several teeth in one visit.

Your dental benefits

Many plans treat fillings and children's sealants differently from cosmetic work.

There is no single price for this treatment. After an examination you receive a written treatment plan with the cost of each step, and our team reviews your dental benefits and payment options with you before anything begins.

How dental financing and payment plans work

Recovery and aftercare

Caring for your smile afterwards

Most fillings are ready to use straight away, with a few simple checks in the first week.

  1. 1

    Wait for numbness to pass

    Avoid chewing on that side until sensation returns fully.

  2. 2

    Check the bite

    If the tooth feels high or catches when you close, call for a quick adjustment.

  3. 3

    Mild sensitivity is normal

    Cold sensitivity for a short period after a deeper filling usually settles by itself.

  4. 4

    Clean around it

    Decay tends to return at the edges, so cleaning between teeth matters most there.

  5. 5

    Reduce the cause

    Frequency of sugary snacks and drinks, not just quantity, drives new cavities.

Comparing your options

Filling or crown?

Both repair a damaged tooth. How much healthy tooth is left decides which is appropriate.

Filling

  • Suited to small and medium areas of decay
  • Completed in a single visit
  • Keeps the maximum amount of natural tooth
  • Can be replaced or added to later

Crown

  • Covers and protects a heavily broken-down tooth
  • Often recommended after root canal treatment
  • Takes more than one appointment
  • More of the tooth surface is prepared
