Understanding the Cost of Fillings in the UK

Many patients are surprised by how difficult it is to spot a modern filling. And unlike earlier silver restorations that were obvious when laughing or speaking, today’s tooth-coloured materials are matched to the surrounding tooth. Hence, invisible fillings are often chosen by people wanting to fix decay, cracks, or worn areas without changing the appearance of a smile.

The white filling cost ranges from around £120 to £300+, depending on the size of the restoration, the tooth being treated and the complexity of the repair. A small filling usually requires less material and treatment time than a larger restoration involving extensive decay or damage.

With a well-placed composite filling, strength and appearance should return, and you can smile confidently without drawing attention to the treated tooth.

BChD, MFDCRCS, Cert Impl

Dr Fareed Khan graduated from Leeds University and has always had a special interest in Temporo-mandibular Joint Dysfunction. He had a paper published on this subject whilst still a student.

After graduating, he spent a couple of years in a Dental Practice but then was resident in hospitals studying Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery for 3 years. Fareed then went to the USA for 2 years and studied Maxillofacial Radiology and Cranio-Facial Imaging.

Since then he has worked in our Putney practice and spent 5 years part-time at Eastman Dental Hospital studying Dental Implantology.
He has a special interest in the relationship of the Dental Occlusion to the position of the lower Jaw and the effects this may have on the TMJs and associated structures.

Fareed believes that the bite can affect the jaw position and place strain on the TMJs and jaw muscles, and therefore he has developed a protocol to realign the teeth and repair worn down teeth and replace missing teeth to help support the jaw in its natural position. Many patients have reported reduction in their TMJ and jaw muscle symptoms after this rehabilitation.

He is happy to accept private referrals for patients with these symptoms and offers consultations.
Dr Khan is now studying digital dentistry and believes the future of Dentistry is a holistic approach with the aim of healthy teeth and jaws. He also believes form and function go together so usually the most healthy position of the teeth is also the most aesthetic.

In his spare time he likes to train in his personal gym and spend time with his family.

Fillings Timeline What to Expect

Most patients leave their appointment with the tooth restored and ready to function normally again.

  • Immediately After Treatment: The filling is hardened, shaped, and polished during the appointment. Your mouth may feel slightly numb for a short period if a local anaesthetic has been used.
  • First 24 Hours: It is common to notice the repaired tooth more than usual when biting together. If the filling feels slightly high, a simple adjustment can usually resolve the issue.
  • First Few Days: Any sensitivity caused by the original cavity or damaged tooth should begin to improve. Hot and cold foods often become more comfortable as the tooth settles.
  • Following Weeks: The filling becomes part of your normal chewing routine. Most patients stop noticing the restoration altogether unless they actively look for it.

Why Choose Perfect Smile For Invisible Fillings

  • 120,000+ fillings placed
  • Tooth-coloured materials
  • Established Since 2004
  • 0% finance available
  • Spread costs over 5 years
  • 28 UK clinic locations

Why Invisible Fillings Are Worth the Cost

  • Treating decay early with a filling is usually far less expensive than needing a crown, root canal treatment or extraction.
  • Invisible fillings restore damaged teeth while preserving more natural tooth structure than many larger restorative treatments.
  • The composite filling cost often reflects a more natural-looking result than traditional metal fillings.
  • Well-maintained fillings can help delay or avoid more complex restorative work in the future.
  • Many patients consider the white filling cost worthwhile for repairs that blend naturally with surrounding teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fillings

Mask Group 5

Most fillings are designed to last for many years, but they are not permanent. Over time, normal wear, biting forces and changes around the restoration may mean repair or replacement becomes necessary. The long-term dental filling cost may therefore include maintenance over the years.

The front tooth filling price may be influenced by the level of cosmetic detail required. Front teeth are highly visible when speaking and smiling, so additional time is often spent on shade matching, contouring and polishing to create a natural-looking result.

The cost of filling teeth gap depends on the size and location of the space, the amount of composite material required, and the level of aesthetic shaping needed. Small gaps can sometimes be closed conservatively, while larger spaces may require a more comprehensive cosmetic approach.

The private filling cost depends on the type of filling, the size and location of the cavity, and the complexity of the treatment. Your dentist can provide an exact price after assessing the tooth.

The cost of a white filling for teeth can vary depending on how much of the tooth needs to be restored and whether the filling is on a front or back tooth. Larger or more complex restorations may require additional treatment time.

The cost of gold fillings is generally higher than standard tooth-coloured fillings because of the material and the laboratory work often involved. Gold may be considered where durability and the location of the tooth make it suitable.

The dental filling price can vary according to the size of the restoration, the tooth being treated, and the material used. Your dentist will assess the tooth and explain the recommended treatment before confirming the final price.
