Tooth-coloured fillings cost in Red Deer: frequently asked questions

How much do tooth-coloured fillings cost in Red Deer?

Tooth-coloured fillings in Red Deer, AB typically costs CA$390–CA$780 CAD, about CA$585 on average, as of October 2026. By type: composite filling, one surface CA$190–CA$390; composite filling, multiple surfaces CA$330–CA$590; porcelain inlay or onlay CA$840–CA$1,950. These are estimates, not quotes.

Is tooth-coloured fillings covered by CDCP or insurance in Alberta?

The Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) covers fillings for eligible residents as restorative care. A co-payment may apply depending on family income. Confirm with the clinic first.

Are cosmetic fillings safe?

Yes, composite fillings are considered very safe. They're mercury-free (unlike amalgam) and bond directly to tooth structure, which can help strengthen the tooth.

Composite vs amalgam: which is better?

Composite fillings look natural and bond to teeth but cost more and may not last as long. Amalgam is cheaper and more durable but contains mercury and is visible. Most patients prefer composite for visible teeth.

Does getting a filling hurt?

Fillings are usually done with local anesthetic, so most patients feel pressure and vibration but not pain. The injection itself can sting briefly. Teeth may be sensitive to temperature or biting for a few days afterward.
