In Singapore, the cost of a filling can vary considerably between clinics and according to the complexity of the treatment. The Ministry of Health (MOH) currently lists fee benchmarks of S65–S160 for simple fillings and S80–S180 for complex fillings, excluding GST.
1. Composite Resin Fillings - Composite resin is a popular choice because it can be matched closely to the natural colour of your teeth. It bonds directly to the tooth and can be used for both front and back teeth, depending on the size and location of the cavity. Estimated cost in Singapore: Around S80–S400+ per tooth, although some clinics charge according to the number of surfaces being restored.
2. Amalgam Fillings - Amalgam, sometimes called a silver filling, is a metal-based material traditionally used for cavities, particularly in back teeth. It is durable and generally less expensive than tooth-coloured alternatives. Estimated cost: Approximately S55–S150 per tooth, depending on the clinic and complexity.
3. Glass Ionomer Fillings - Glass ionomer is a tooth-coloured restorative material that can release fluoride. It may be considered for smaller cavities, areas close to the gum line, children's teeth, or locations exposed to less biting pressure. Estimated cost: Around S80–S160 per tooth.
4. Ceramic or Porcelain Fillings - Ceramic and porcelain restorations provide a natural appearance and good resistance to staining. They are often considered when a larger restoration is required and aesthetics and durability are important.
5. Gold Fillings - Gold restorations are known for their strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion and wear. They can be particularly suitable for areas subjected to significant chewing forces.
