Composite Filling

A composite filling repairs a tooth affected by decay or minor damage using a tooth-coloured resin that bonds to the tooth and is shaped to restore its form and function. At WellDent composite fillings are 400–520 zł depending on size, with larger laboratory inlay/onlay restorations at 1,500 zł. The material is colour-matched so the repair blends in, and the procedure is completed in a single visit under local anaesthetic where needed.

A filling restores a tooth that has been damaged by decay, wear or a small fracture. WellDent uses tooth-coloured composite resin, which is bonded directly to the tooth and built up in layers to rebuild the missing structure, then shaped, hardened and polished so it both functions and looks like natural tooth. Because composite is matched to the shade of the surrounding enamel, the repair is discreet, and it generally allows the dentist to preserve more of the healthy tooth than older materials required. The procedure is usually completed in one appointment: any decay is removed, the area is cleaned and prepared, the composite is placed and cured with a light, and the bite is checked and adjusted. Local anaesthetic is used where needed for comfort. WellDent prices standard composite fillings at 400–520 zł, with the exact fee depending on how large the cavity is and how many tooth surfaces are involved; children's fillings are priced similarly at 390–520 zł through the clinic's paediatric service. For larger cavities where a direct filling would be less durable, the clinic offers a composite inlay, onlay or overlay — a restoration made outside the mouth and then bonded in — at 1,500 zł, which can be a stronger option for extensively damaged back teeth. Fillings suit patients with decay or minor tooth damage that can be repaired without a crown; the dentist assesses the tooth, recommends a direct filling or an inlay/onlay as appropriate, and confirms the cost before treatment.
