Composite fillings in Pontesbury
A dental filling is a straightforward restorative treatment that repairs a tooth affected by decay, helping to ease pain and sensitivity so you can return to eating and drinking comfortably. With a gentle, unhurried approach, our experienced dentists will explain each step and make sure you feel comfortable and reassured.
What is a tooth filling?
A dental filling repairs a tooth damaged by decay, relieving pain and sensitivity so you can get back to eating and drinking comfortably. During your visit, your dentist will carefully remove the areas of decay and clean the area before filling the space with a durable composite resin. Unlike older amalgam fillings, our high-quality composite resin is matched to the shade of your surrounding teeth for the most natural finish.
How much does a tooth filling cost?
Depending on factors such as the complexity of the restoration as well as the materials that will be used during the procedure, the cost of a tooth filling varies. We'll always give you a clear price before booking any treatment so there are never any surprises.
Our membership plans make regular dental care more affordable, with simple monthly payments that spread the cost of check-ups and hygiene visits throughout the year.
What to expect when you come in for a filling
Your consultation
We’ll examine your tooth, take X-rays if needed, and discuss our findings with you.
Your appointment
We'll apply local anaesthetic so you won't feel pain, then remove the decay and place the filling.
After your filling
Some sensitivity around the tooth for a few days is normal and usually settles on its own. We'll tell you what to expect before leaving your appointment.
