Fillings cost between $50 and $300 depending where you live, and the filling material (amalgam or composite) used.
Dentists won't lose their jobs because they use mercury amalgams. There has been study after study after study, that shows no diseases linked to amalgams. To say mercury is poisonous in all forms is akin to saying oxygen is poisonous, because when combined with carbon it can form carbon monoxide - therefore all oxygen is poisonous. And so far as re-mineralization is concerned - I'm sure Dr. Judd's research is accurate, but most cavities are formed in deep pits and fissures in tooth structure. Food particles get jammed down deep into crevasses so small that a tooth brush can't remove them. Eventually a cavity forms. This is how 90% of cavities form. Sealants, fluoride and proper hygiene and diet can control the vast majority of decay in this country.

COST
I just went to the dentist and my fillings are going to be $220 a piece. The fillings are from not flossing, but I guess cost vary since my coworker had a filling that was only $90 allegedly
Dentists charge different prices and if you get a silver filling it is cheaper then a white filling. You should be able to call different dentist offices in your area and they can give you an estimate.
it depends on what kind of filling you get. gold costs more than silver, but silver tooth fillings are toxic to your body. you can also ask a dentist to get a tooth colored filling which isn't toxic and costs less than the gold filling.
It depends on a few things. Where you live, the dental office you go to and how big of a filling you need. Without insurance, expect to pay anywhere from $100-$250 for a filling.
Depends on your geographic area and how much your insurance will cover for you.
Last time for a filling, I paid $107.
Well it depends ' if it's more than 1 tooth that need to be filled it can be around 100 bucks and up . 1 single tooth will be around 50-75 ! Depends on how much damage it is .
Fillings, while more expensive than basic dental check-ups, both fix cavities and protect your mouth's future health. Most filling treatments hold stable prices in the following ranges: $50 to $150 for a single, silver amalgam filling. $90 to $250 for a single, tooth-colored composite filling.
