Dental Tooth Fillings
Which teeth typically need fillings
The molar and wisdom teeth are most likely the ones who need tooth fillings. While the only person that can tell you whether you need dental treatment is your qualified dentist, you can encounter some common symptoms and signs that can warn of a cavity which may need a dental filling. Book an appointment with your dentist for an assessment if you’re experiencing any of the following:
- A previous tooth filling gets cracked or falls off the tooth
- Your tooth has a rough texture
- Chewing food causes pain
- There are visible dark spots or craters on your tooth
- You can feel some discomfort when you bite into cold or hot food
- You have a fractured tooth
- You suddenly feel an unusual throbbing pain in your teeth

Tooth Filling Cost
The cost of tooth filling can range anywhere between $150 to $400. Like most treatments, the cost is all depending on the complexity and size of your cavity. Another factor that affects the dental filling cost is the type of tooth filling material used. At White Dental Clinic, there are four types of fillings available: Composite, amalgam, gold, and porcelain fillings.
Amalgam fillings are known to be the standard dental filling material, although it has its usage limitations. On the other hand, a composite tooth filling is a more commonly used tooth filling treatment for most patients. Amalgam filling lasts for around 12 years on average, while composite filling should last between 5 to 7 years. This depends, of course, on particular factors such as the treatment and attention to your oral health and regular dental visits.
Type of Dental Fillings
Fillings can be made of a number of different materials and can be used to repair any tooth in the mouth. Your choice can be depending on the look, durability and costs of the fillings materials.
We gladly invite you to set an appointment with our dentist to discuss your treatment options. At White Dental Clinic, we offer different types of dental fillings. We will help you understand the different variations of dental fillings and assist you in making the best option for your needs.

Porcelain Fillings
Another alternative is porcelain. This non-crystalline gas composed of silicon and oxygen filling, is often used as inlays on teeth. They are typically used for tooth fillings when the cavity in a tooth is large or in an area where maximum chewing pressure is required. They are often also used when the cavity is in a tooth that is visible when you talk or smile as they can match the colour of your natural teeth.
