Are tooth-coloured fillings as strong as silver ones?

Modern composite fillings are strong and bond directly to the tooth. For most cavities they perform very well and look far more natural than silver amalgam.

Does getting a filling hurt?

No. The area is numbed with local anaesthesia first, so you should feel only slight pressure. The tooth may be mildly sensitive for a day or two afterwards.

How much does a filling cost?

A composite filling starts around ₹1,800 per tooth and rises with the size and number of surfaces. We confirm the exact price after examining the tooth.

How long do fillings last?

With good care, composite fillings typically last several years. Regular check-ups help us catch any wear early and keep them in good shape.

Can I eat after a filling?

Yes. Composite fillings set immediately with a curing light, so you can eat once the numbness wears off. Avoid very hard foods on that side for the first day.

What is a dental filling?

A dental filling repairs a tooth that has been damaged by decay, wear, or a small fracture. The decayed part is removed and the space is filled with a durable material that restores the tooth's shape, strength, and function.

At Dent Health in Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, we use tooth-coloured composite fillings that bond directly to the tooth and match its natural shade, so the repair is barely visible. Glass ionomer (GIC) fillings are also available for certain cases.

Care you can feel good about.

A few things we do differently for every patient who walks in.

Natural-looking resultsTooth-coloured composite is matched to your shade so the filling blends invisibly with your teeth.

Single-visit treatmentMost fillings are completed comfortably in one appointment, so you are in and out the same day.

Comfortable and gentleEffective local anaesthesia and a careful technique keep the whole procedure pain-free.

Accurate diagnosisIn-house X-rays let us see the full extent of decay and choose the right restoration.

Transparent pricingClear, fair pricing by filling size, explained upfront with no hidden costs.

Durable restorationsQuality materials and careful bonding give fillings that last and stand up to daily use.

Gentle, step by step.

Examine and confirm the cavity

We check the tooth and take an X-ray if needed to see how deep the decay goes and plan the right filling.

Numb the area

A local anaesthetic is given so the tooth and surrounding gum are completely comfortable during treatment.

Remove the decay

We gently clean out the decayed part of the tooth, leaving a healthy surface ready to be filled.

Place the filling

Tooth-coloured composite is applied in layers and shaped to rebuild the natural form of the tooth.

Cure and bond

A curing light hardens each layer so the filling bonds firmly and is ready to use straight away.

Polish and check the bite

We polish the filling and adjust your bite so it feels smooth, natural, and comfortable when you chew.

Signs to watch for.

Have two or more of these? Call us, we will see you the same day for a free assessment.

A visible hole or pit in a toothA cavity you can see or feel with your tongue needs a filling before the decay spreads deeper into the tooth.

Sensitivity to sweet, hot, or coldSharp twinges when eating sugary, hot, or cold food often mean decay has reached the sensitive inner layers.

A dull, lingering toothachePersistent ache in a tooth can signal a cavity that has grown large enough to need prompt restoration.

Food trapping in one spotFood repeatedly catching in the same place may point to a cavity or a gap that a filling can close.

A chipped or worn toothSmall chips and worn areas can be rebuilt with composite to restore shape and protect the tooth.

An old or broken fillingDark, cracked, or loose old fillings should be replaced to seal the tooth and prevent new decay underneath.

No surprises at billing.

The price depends on the size of the cavity and the number of surfaces involved. Very large cavities may need a crown or root canal, which we discuss before starting. All prices include GST where applicable.
