What are tooth colored fillings?
- Sealing the Gaps: Dental fillings are a tried-and-true solution for repairing cavities or areas of tooth decay. They not only restore the tooth’s function but also prevent further deterioration.
- Materials Matter: At A2Z Dental, we offer a range of filling materials, including tooth-colored composite, gold, or porcelain inlay. Our team guides you in choosing the most suitable material based on the location and extent of the cavity.
When and Why Dental Fillings?
- Early Intervention: Fillings are typically recommended when decay is detected early, preventing the need for more extensive treatments like crowns or root canals.
- Sensitivity Relief: Fillings are excellent for addressing tooth sensitivity caused by cavities, restoring comfort and function.
- Preservation of Tooth Structure: By promptly treating cavities with fillings, we preserve more of your natural tooth structure, contributing to long-term oral health.

Frequently Asked Questions
here are several types of dental fillings available in Australia, each with its own benefits and drawbacks:
- Composite fillings: These are tooth-colored fillings made of a resin material. They are more aesthetically pleasing than amalgam fillings and can be bonded to the tooth structure, creating a stronger bond. However, they are not as durable as ceramic or porcelain fillings and can be more expensive.
- Gold fillings: These are the most durable and long-lasting type of filling, but they are also the most expensive. Gold fillings are typically used for large cavities or teeth that have undergone multiple fillings.
- Porcelain / Ceramic fillings: These are also known as inlays and onlays and are custom-made in a dental lab to fit the exact shape of the cavity. They are very durable and aesthetically pleasing, but they are also the most expensive type of filling.
The cost of dental fillings in Australia varies depending on the type of filling, the size of the cavity and complexity involved. However, you can expect to pay approximately:
- Composite fillings: $150-300 per tooth
- Gold fillings: $500-1000 per tooth
- Porcelain fillings: $1000-2000 per tooth
The lifespan of dental fillings varies depending on the type of filling, the size of the cavity, and your oral hygiene habits as well as habits such as clenching and grinding.
As chewing generates a huge amount of bite force it can chip or even break fillings.
To keep your dental fillings healthy and lasting, you should:
- Brush your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
- Floss daily to remove plaque and food particles between your teeth.
- Avoid biting on hard objects, such as ice or candy.
- Visit your dentist for regular checkups and cleanings.
Dental fillings are generally safe and effective procedures. However, there are some risks, including:
- Tooth sensitivity: You may experience some temporary sensitivity to hot and cold after having a filling.
- Allergic reaction: Some people may be allergic to the materials used in dental fillings.
- Fractured tooth: In rare cases, a filling can cause a tooth to fracture.
