A filling restores a decayed tooth: the damaged tissue is cleaned out and the cavity is rebuilt with tooth-coloured composite. At Tooth Point Dental Care this costs ৳800–2,000, takes 30–40 minutes, and is normally completed in one visit.
When you need it
When you need a filling
- A dark spot or visible hole in a tooth
- Sensitivity to cold or sweet food
- Food packing into a tooth
- An old filling that has come out
Why not to wait: a small cavity left untreated reaches the nerve, and an ৳800 filling becomes a ৳5,000 root canal. Get it checked as soon as sensitivity starts.
How it’s done
How it's done
The area is numbed with local anaesthesia if needed. Decayed tissue is removed, composite is placed in layers and cured with a light, then the bite is checked and the surface polished. You can eat normally straight afterwards.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about fillings
With good care, composite fillings last 5–10 years. Large fillings and fillings on molars wear faster because they take more chewing force.
Mild sensitivity for a few days is normal. But pain specifically when biting usually means the filling sits slightly high — a quick adjustment fixes it. Come back rather than putting up with it.
We use composite (white) fillings. They match tooth colour and require less removal of healthy tooth structure.
