About Dental Fillers
Emergency dental treatment for defective fillings
If a filling breaks or falls out, emergency dental treatment can provide fast pain relief and save your tooth with a new filling – either temporary or permanent.
- Boosting your self-esteem by improving your appearance and smile
- Providing support for facial muscles, which prevents sunken cheeks that make you look older
- Enabling you to speak clearly
- Allowing a more varied, healthy diet so you get all the nutrients your body needs
Crucial role of fillings
How crucial is it?
If a filling cracks or falls out, you no longer have this protection, and tooth structure is left exposed. This may lead to further decay, deep infection, and an abscessed tooth.
That’s why you may need emergency treatment to replace a filling, which is generally a simpler procedure than getting the original filling.
If you have a temporary filling, it will need to be replaced with a permanent filling within a few weeks.
The advanced technology of the process includes digital scanning and 3D printing. And with the help of ongoing advances in technology, Spark Aligners is able to treat ever more complex cases.
Why do fillings break or fall out?
Fillings crack or fall all out for several reasons, including:
- Wear and tear.
- The seal that bonds your filling to the tooth enamel may weaken over time.
- Severe decay.
- A tooth with a filling is still vulnerable to cavities.
- Excessive pressure from chewing particularly hard foods, or teeth grinding or clenching.
- Minor gaps between teeth
- Oral trauma resulting from a blow to the face.
What should I do in a filling emergency?
Some helpful tips in case of dental emergency
- Take anti-inflammatory medication like ibuprofen.
- Put clove oil on the exposed tooth.
- Hold a cold compress or ice pack to your face.
Composite fillings
Composite resin fillings are a better aesthetic option in more visible areas of the mouth, where they blend seamlessly for a natural appearance.
