Your Dentist for Teeth Fillings
Your Dentist for Teeth Fillings
At Dental21, we treat cavities and tooth defects with proven filling methods. Our experienced team uses high-quality materials – whether composite filling, resin filling, or ceramic filling – that permanently seal the affected area, protect against further damage, restore chewing function, and prevent more extensive treatments. We're happy to provide comprehensive advice about your individual situation to ensure you receive the most suitable solution that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
When is a Tooth Filling Recommended?
Treatment is advisable for:
Visible holes or dark spots
Toothache or pressure sensitivity
Sensitivity to hot or cold foods
Broken tooth fragments
Damaged, loose, or no longer intact fillings
Our Filling Materials
Composite Resin Fillings
Tooth-colored composite fillings consist of plastic resins with glass particles. They bond firmly to the tooth structure and are color-matched to your natural teeth. Composite resin fillings are suitable for small to medium-sized defects in both front and back teeth.
Ceramic Inlays and Onlays
For particularly demanding aesthetic and larger ceramic restorations, these are laboratory-fabricated. The cost of ceramic fillings is higher than composite, but you benefit from exceptional stability and longevity. Inlays fill the tooth defect, while onlays additionally cover parts of the chewing surface.
Glass Ionomer Fillings
The special feature of these fillings is that they continuously release fluoride, thus protecting against recurring cavities. In our practices, they are typically intended only as a temporary solution until definitive treatment with composites or ceramics.
What to expect during your filling treatment
Diagnosis and Consultation
First, we conduct a thorough examination. Digital X-ray diagnostics determine the extent of the cavity or tooth defect. Our dentists explain the findings clearly and present possible treatment options, creating a transparent cost estimate. We take time for your questions and discuss the next steps together so you can make an informed decision about treatment.
Precise Filling Treatment
Treatment is performed under local anesthesia so you feel no pain. After careful removal of the decayed tooth structure, the filling material is applied in layers. For composite fillings, we cure each layer with a special polymerization lamp. This ensures optimal stability and a natural tooth appearance. The precise processing ensures a permanent bond between filling and tooth. For ceramic treatment, after cavity removal, the tooth is (digitally) impressioned and in a second appointment, the laboratory-made, precisely fitting ceramic piece is carefully bonded.
Final Adjustment and Care Instructions
After curing, the filling is carefully finished and polished. We check your bite and make fine adjustments if necessary so the filling integrates seamlessly into your dentition. You receive detailed aftercare instructions and we schedule a follow-up appointment if needed. Regular dental checkups and cleanings help extend the life of your filling and maintain your oral health.

Frequently asked questions
Here you will find frequently asked questions from our patients at Dental21, currently answered by our competent practice team. If your question still remains unanswered, contact us directly and tell us your question.Was kostet eine Kunststofffüllung?
Die Kosten für Kompositfüllungen variieren je nach Größe und Lage. Der Eigenanteil liegt meist zwischen 40 und 150 Euro pro Füllung.
Wann kann ich wieder essen?
Nach etwa einer Stunde, wenn die Betäubung nachlässt, können Sie wieder normal essen. Am ersten Tag empfehlen wir weiche Kost.
Was kostet eine Keramikfüllung?
Keramikfüllungen sind aufwendiger herzustellen. Die Kosten sind daher höher als bei Kunststoff, das Material bietet dafür aber längere Haltbarkeit.
Was sind die Kosten für Zahnfüllungen bei Privatversicherten?
Private Krankenversicherungen übernehmen oft die kompletten Kosten für hochwertige Füllungen. Wir erstellen Ihnen gerne einen detaillierten Kostenvoranschlag.
Ist die Behandlung schmerzhaft?
Dank moderner Betäubungsverfahren verläuft die Behandlung in der Regel schmerzfrei. Sie spüren lediglich den kleinen Einstich der Betäubungsspritze.
Wie lange dauert eine Füllungsbehandlung?
Je nach Größe und Lage des Defekts dauert die Behandlung zwischen 30 und 60 Minuten.
Wie lange hält eine Füllung?
Bei guter Pflege halten Kunststofffüllungen 5-10 Jahre, Keramikfüllungen oft über 15 Jahre.
Sieht man die Füllung?
Moderne Komposit- und Keramikfüllungen werden farblich an Ihre Zähne angepasst und sind praktisch unsichtbar.
