Fillings GIC
How long does GIC fillings stay on biting surface each of fillings cost me rs500.
All the fillings are on molar biting surface middle.
I generally advise gic fillings on non biting surfaces because it tends to wear off after sometime and so you will have to get it replaced in future...
Next Steps
next time ask the dentist about composite restoration which has more strength and is more natural in appearance vs gic.
