Completely depends on the size, location, and doctors experience.
Every dentist is different, on average 30 minutes to an hour.
It depends on the type of cavities, material to be used, and technic of dentist. You must ask your dentist.
Too many variables to answer intelligently. 20 minutes to 2 hours.
Great question. Teeth can have very small cavities on the chewing surface or require rebuilding of a moderate or large amount of missing tooth. To fill 2 small cavities, it might take 15 minutes, and to reconstruct 2 large cavities, it might take an hour or more.
I hope this helps.

There are big cavities. There are small cavities. They can be close to each other, which makes it faster, they could be in diagonally opposite parts of your mouth. There is a time range from 30 minutes to much longer. Ask your dental team what to expect.
There is no set time as it depends on how big the cavity is. I would estimate about 30-60 minutes.
Depends on the size. Small cavities can be filled within an hour even without anesthesia. If large cavities, may need a little longer.
This depends upon the size and location of the cavities. It can take anywhere from 1/2 hour to 1 and 1/2 hour to fill two cavities
Depends on where it is and how large, but generally about 30 to 40 minutes.
