Case Description
i have a tooth next to a crown that must have developed a cavity between the tooth. its a small cavity in the corner of the molar and cracked just a hair. Its extremely painful. it throbs so badly i cant sleep. Ive been laid off recently and i dont have dental insurnace. i was wondering how much it is to get a filin done. do they need to do x-rays or do they get em from my ol dentist. ive very tight on money. i think filings are about 150 a tooth-i hope cus thats all i can pay. whats the rpice, can a place in the area do a filing for that price?

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Good morning. I am sorry to hear that you are having some pain with your tooth. The cost for the exam and xray appointment for us to evaluate the tooth is $110. Fillings run about $250-300. Many of our patients who do not have insurance normally will pay with their credit card. We do have financing available upon credit approval. If you would like, we can send you a financial application. I am sure that we can help you get some rest after we take care of that tooth for you. Please let me know.
