What is the cost of composite tooth-coloured fillings?
Tooth-coloured fillings generally cost considerably more than amalgam fillings. Not only are the filling materials more expensive but the technique involved is much more demanding. Working with composites requires special skills and extensive training. A single composite tooth-coloured filling can cost between $150 and $400. Tooth-coloured fillings are rarely covered by dental insurance as insurance companies like to pay for the least expensive treatment, not necessarily the best treatment.
