How long do Dental Fillings take in Thailand?

The majority of dental fillings can be done in less than an hour, but it does depend on how large the tooth is. Some back teeth require ‘indirect’ fillings on several surfaces of the tooth, which obviously takes more time.

The procedure will involve you being given a local anesthetic to numb the area around the tooth. After this the decayed areas will be removed by your dentist with a drill. The cavities which are left are then cleaned and filled with the appropriate material. After a few minutes, once the material has set, your dentist will file the tooth to the correct size and shape until it feels comfortable for you.

There are a variety of different filling materials that can be used, which the dentist will discuss with you beforehand. The ultimate decision will be yours. 

What is the cost comparison of Dental Fillings in Australia and New Zealand to Thailand?

The material used will affect the price, but white composite fillings in Australia are are around AUD $150, but can be under AUD $20 in Thailand.

Spending a little time and money having your fillings in Thailand could pay dividends in the long-term, ensuring your dental health is maintained.
