Frequently Asked Questions
How much does cavity treatment cost in Bharuch?
Simple cavity filling: ₹700–₹1,800 per tooth. Deep cavity needing RCT: ₹3,500–₹6,500. Silver crown for a heavily decayed baby tooth: ₹2,000–₹4,000.
Do baby-teeth cavities need to be treated?
Yes — untreated baby-tooth cavities cause pain, infection, and can damage the permanent tooth developing below. Read our detailed guide on cavities in baby teeth.
What are the signs of a cavity?
Tooth sensitivity to sweet/cold food, visible dark or brown spots, bad breath, small holes in the tooth, or occasional sharp pain when biting.
Can cavities be reversed without a filling?
Only very early white-spot lesions can be reversed with fluoride treatment and better brushing. Once a cavity forms a hole in the enamel, a filling is needed.
Is cavity treatment painful?
No — modern painless filling technique with topical numbing and gentle drilling. Kids can have laughing-gas sedation if anxious.
Can I prevent cavities in my child?
Yes — see our guides on preventing tooth decay, dental sealants, and best toothpaste for kids. 90% of childhood cavities are preventable.
How long does cavity filling take?
A single filling takes 30–45 minutes. Multiple fillings can be done in one appointment, especially with laughing-gas sedation for kids.
What if I ignore a cavity?
It grows into the nerve (needing RCT), then into an abscess (needing extraction), then can spread infection to the face. A ₹1,000 filling today saves a ₹40,000 problem later.
