Glass Ionomer Fillings

High-quality dental fillings are usually made of modern composite materials - a tooth-colored plastic-glass mixture - that can be perfectly matched to the natural tooth color. These composite fillings are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also durable, biocompatible and particularly suitable for small to medium-sized defects in the anterior and posterior region. In our practice, we only use high-quality, metal-free fillings - for function and aesthetics at the highest level.

The durability of a high-quality composite filling is on average between 7 and 10 years, often even significantly longer - depending on dental care, stress and individual oral situation. Precise processing, modern bonding technology (dentin-adhesive) and regular check-ups can further extend the service life. Composite fillings are a sustainable alternative to amalgam and offer both aesthetic and functional advantages.

The cost of a high-quality filling depends on the material used and the complexity of the treatment. Statutory health insurance companies only cover the cost of a simple amalgam filling in the posterior region. For tooth-colored composite fillings, especially in the visible area, there is usually a co-payment. At our practice in Berlin-Zehlendorf, we will provide you with transparent information about the cost of fillings and can draw up an individual cost plan on request.
