Their FAQ

Answers from their website.

How much do dental fillings cost?

The price of dental fillings in Vancouver, BC, depends on the type and size of the cavity. Composite fillings are common and designed to blend with natural teeth. We’re open Monday–Saturday, 9 am–5 pm; call (604) 757-7659 to book your in-person, no-pressure restoration consultation to get started!

When should I go to a dentist for a filling?

Visit a dentist for a filling as soon as you feel tooth pain, or if you have signs of decay, such as brown or black spots, sensitivity, or need to replace loose or broken restorations. Early treatment is designed to help prevent more complex issues. If you have a cavity, our dentist can address it. Check out our Fillings page for more details!

When is IV sedation dentistry recommended vs. general dentistry?

IV sedation dentistry is recommended for lengthy, complex, or anxiety-provoking dental work, while general dentistry typically does not require sedation or uses local anesthesia only. Our clinic is proud to provide sedation solutions along with general care. Visit our Services page to learn all about our different treatments!
