Fillings Questions

As far as tooth decay is concerned, filling are the permanent treatment to this condition. Taking pain killers or brushing twicw or thrice will not help. They will give you only temporary relief. Once tooth decay has occured its better to get filling done otherwise delaying it may worsen condition over a period of time which may lead to root canal treatment or surgery.

Main types of tooth filling materials are
1. Silver 2. Cements (GIC)
3. Composites
Let your dentist decide what will be best for you.

It is your choice... But you will.have problem as the empty cavities will get food lodged in it and then will.again cause infection..

Dear Lybrate user,
you need rct of your painful tooth. May be more tooth cutting done during restoration time, which is causing pain. Please consult to your dentist for clinical diagnosis & needful treatment.

Hello lybrate-user.
Nice to know that you are concern with your teeth. There is no problem with refilling.

Dentist ke pass jakar filling karwa lijiye. Condition dekhne par hi pata lagega cavity kitni badi hai.

Tooth has to restored with a Esthetic material such as composite. The average charges would be 1500 to 2500.

Various types of filling is there that you can search it on net because its a complete book for that and for treatment cost varies from clinic to clinic.

Consult your dentist who will do clinical examination and check if the filling has some "High Points" or the decay has progressed into the pulp. Depending on this either the High Points of the filling will be grounded or Root Canal Treatment may be advised to you.
Good Health :-)

Many time a file get separated. ....nothing to worry...yes we need to see if pain remains or subsides....it is difficult to say if the file is completely sealing the canal....so few cases pain may persist which Wil require removal of tooth...but many times pain subsides and we can fill the tooth with the file piece in place....it won't harm in any way...
