We often receive calls requesting information on the cost of fillings, so we thought this would be a great topic to cover.
There is a fairly large price range for fillings because it depends on several factors such as the size of the filling, which tooth and what material is used. For example, white fillings cost more than silver fillings. The price difference may or may not be covered by dental insurance in molar teeth, in which case the patient can make up the difference if they choose to.
Keep in mind that if you have dental insurance, they will cover part or all of the payment depending on your plan details.
Dental Filling Cost on Primary (Children’s) Teeth
Dental filling cost on primary teeth ranges from $107 – $309.
Dental Filling Cost on Adult Teeth
Dental filling cost on adults ranges from $123 – $418.
Here are some quick facts on White and Silver fillings
Silver fillings:
One of the safest, most durable and least expensive materials used to a fill a cavity.
White Fillings:
Advantages
- They will be the same colour as your teeth.
- Less costly than gold fillings.
