Dental filling cost in Amritsar depends on the material chosen and the size of the cavity. Below are our clinic prices and the factors that affect the final cost.
At Smile Architects, fillings are placed using modern, tooth-coloured materials so your restoration looks natural and lasts.
Price Guide
Final cost depends on the size of the cavity and the material chosen — confirmed after a quick examination.
What Affects the Cost
Material
GIC is the most economical; composite gives a strong, tooth-coloured result; ceramic inlays are the premium, longest-lasting option for back teeth.
Cavity size
Larger cavities take more material and time, which affects the cost.
Front vs back tooth
Front teeth need higher-aesthetic shading; back teeth take heavier biting forces and may benefit from inlays.
Number of surfaces
A filling spanning two or three surfaces of a tooth costs more than a small single-surface one.
Payment & Financing
Frequently Asked Questions
Are tooth-coloured fillings worth the extra cost?
Yes — composite and ceramic fillings look natural and bond directly to the tooth. For visible teeth or larger cavities they're a clear upgrade over old silver fillings.
Why is a ceramic inlay more expensive?
Ceramic inlays are custom-made in the lab to fit your tooth precisely. They're stronger and longer-lasting than direct fillings, especially for large cavities on back teeth.
Will I need a crown later?
Not for most fillings. Only very large cavities or cracked teeth need a crown afterwards. We'll advise honestly at your check-up.
Can I pay for multiple fillings in instalments?
EMI options can be discussed for larger treatment plans. Ask our team during your visit.
How long does a filling appointment take?
Most fillings are placed in 30–45 minutes per tooth. Ceramic inlays usually need two short visits (one to prepare, one to fit).
