Dental Filling Pricing in Hawaii
In Hawaii, the average cost for dental filling is $355 per filling, which is 42% higher than the national average of $250. Most Hawaii residents pay between $142 and $710.
Hawaii has a higher cost of living than most states, which translates to higher labor rates and material costs. Urban areas within Hawaii may be even higher.
Dental fillings restore teeth damaged by cavities (decay). The dentist removes the decayed tooth material, cleans the area, and fills the cavity with a restorative material. Composite (tooth-colored) fillings are now the most common type.
