Prices

What do tooth colored fillings cost in Yardley PA?

Tooth colored fillings are quoted after the examination, because the final cost depends on the tooth, the cavity size, and whether old material must be removed. For a direct comparison, bonding is usually $300 to $700 per tooth and crowns are $1,000 to $2,000 per tooth. If you need more than a filling, the exam shows whether a larger repair is the better value.

Option	Cost range	Visits or timeline	How long it lasts
Tooth colored fillings	Quoted after the examination	Usually 1 visit	Depends on cavity size and bite forces
Bonding	$300 to $700 per tooth	Usually 1 visit	5 to 10 years
Veneers	$1,200 to $2,500 per tooth	Usually 2 visits	15 to 20 years
Crown	$1,000 to $2,000 per tooth	Usually 2 visits	15 to 25 years

Prices shown are estimates for planning only and are not a quote. Every case differs, and your fee is confirmed in writing after an examination and scan. See the cost calculator for an early indication.

Natural look

Why choose tooth colored fillings instead of metal?

Tooth colored fillings restore decay with a shade matched material that blends into the tooth, so the repair is less noticeable in front teeth and back teeth alike. They are a common choice for patients who want strength, function, and a cleaner appearance. At Alpha Dental Excellence, the goal is to remove decay, protect the tooth, and keep the result looking natural. That matters when the filling sits in a visible area, or when you want a repair that does not draw attention when you smile.

Key benefits

Blends with enamelThe material is selected to match your tooth color, which helps the repair stay discreet.

Supports daily chewingA properly placed filling restores function so you can bite and chew normally again.

Preserves more toothFillings are used to treat decay while keeping as much healthy tooth structure as possible.

Useful for small repairsThey can fix cavities, chips, and worn edges when the tooth does not need a crown.

Visit steps

What happens during a filling appointment?

A filling visit usually starts with an exam, then numbing if needed, removal of decay, placement of the tooth colored material, and shaping for your bite. Most cases are completed in one appointment, which helps busy Yardley patients get back to work or home quickly. If the tooth is more damaged than expected, the dentist may recommend a crown instead. The exam is where that decision is made, so the treatment plan stays specific to the tooth in front of you.

Typical steps

Exam and X-raysThe tooth is checked first so the dentist can see how deep the decay goes.

Comfort firstLocal numbing is used when needed so the area stays manageable during treatment.

Decay removalThe damaged portion is cleaned out before the filling material is placed.

Shape and polishThe filling is adjusted so your bite feels natural and the surface looks smooth.

Anxiety support

Can nervous patients get sedation for fillings?

Yes. Alpha Dental Excellence offers oral and IV sedation in house, and the sedation consultation is complimentary, a $574 value, with a CBCT scan and a panoramic X-ray included. That can help if dental visits feel stressful. Dr. Arpan Nalin Patel, DMD, brings 22 plus years of experience, and the practice has four dentists at one address. If you need a calmer appointment, the team can review whether sedation makes sense for your filling visit.

Comfort options

Oral sedationA medication option that can help you feel more relaxed before treatment begins.
