what is the cost of composite on a chipped tooth

Q. How much should I expect to pay for a bit of composite on a chipped tooth? My dentist seems to charge whatever goes and he never seems to have a clear cut pricing policy, although he is extremely good at what he does, hence he can charge whatever he likes! I’d just like to know what normal dentists charge. Thanks

A.

THe answer does vary. We price composite on the the number of tooth surfaces it covers. this usually approximates to the time and difficulty. Some quote by estimating the time & difficulty for an appointment (this means that 2or more fillings at the same time will probably be cheaper than single fillings )
£80-140 gives some latitude
