What are the fillings made of?
Fillings at Kashyap Dental & Aesthetics are tooth-coloured composite, for both back and front teeth.
When is a filling not enough?
Tooth decay can infect the soft part inside the tooth (the pulp). Root canal treatment then removes the infected pulp; without it, the tooth may need to be taken out (NHS). Treating a cavity while a filling is enough costs less: a back-tooth filling is NPR 1,500–2,500, while root canal treatment in Butwal costs NPR 10,000 (single visit) or NPR 8,000–12,000 (multiple visits).
Signs a tooth may need more than a filling
- Lasting toothache
- Pain on biting
- Sensitivity to hot or cold that lingers
- Swelling or a pimple on the gum
- A darkened tooth
