    Thank you for the helpful and nonjudgmental presentation. I face several obstacles to proper dental care and the temporary kits are all I have to treat myself at all. The alternative is an open cavity with pain. It's easy for some to say "You've got to see someone!" With cash at hand, maybe they can walk in and receive the best care. For the rest of us, these kits are life savers. Thank you for guidance during difficult times!

    thank you so much for clarifying that it is indeed safe to use dental repair kits! my cavity filling came out last night during dinner and has been giving me discomfort, i called my dentist right away but they only have available appointments a month out so this is definitely a life saver!! i will be buying a pack so i can eat more comfortably

    Thank you for your video! My filling of tooth #19 (next to tooth #20), was slightly loose and I scheduled a dentist appointment (new dental practice after the pandemic, and my old dentist retiring). Two days before my appointment, the filling came out during flossing, and the new dentist called in sick that week and on vacation the following. I was able to find a different dentist, however watching your video gave me peace of mind that if I did not find a good dentist within the same week, there was a back up plan.
    What also helped is that my tooth situation looked very similar to the example in your video. My tooth did not hurt after the filling fell out, and it was not sensitive to hot or cold. I cleaned the hole between the teeth, after every meal. I purchased Dentemp from the local CVS (CVS did not carry the 3M ESPE Cavit G, and it would have taken a week for Amazon to deliver). I did not end up using the Dentemp, as I was able to see a dentist within 3 days of the filling falling out, and got a new filling. But again, I had a back up plan and a peace of mind. Thank you.

    This is definitely a helpful video and a must have when traveling, especially if you are on a cruise. This is definitely a very helpful video and this is only to provide short term relief and buy time. I strongly recommend calling your dentist and setting up an appointment to get it checked out, possibly x-rayed, and permanently fixed and make sure there is no decay under that temporary filling or crown. The only way to remove decay from a cavity is the dentist will have to numb the tooth and remove the decay with a drill, then apply a filling or a crown after. Also, one common reason a filling or a crown can fall out is because of recurrent decay under the filling or crown that fell out and this could cause result in the tooth needing a crown or even a root canal and this is also one reason why it is extremely important to get to the dentist ASAP if you have to use this product.

      Roll up into small ball, lick it, and press it onto tooth with finger. I find too much spit makes it disintegrate in your mouth and leaves white residue on your tongue. Once you got it fitted, keep your mouth open for at least a half hr, avoid liquids and food...don't spit!

    One of my molars had a cavity then it busted away a good piece of my tooth a few months back.
    The center and one side is gone now & is barley above my gum line.
    I had no pain until about 3 weeks ago and now it is starting to get unbearable while trying to work.
    It will be a while before I will be able to get it fixed (because of everything going on), then stumbled across your video,
    while looking up some remedies to try and help.
    This will be a miracle if it helps & I am so blessed that you took the time for us, to explain how to use this.!!

    If your crown has a pocket in it, be careful not to put too much in that hole. I think I overdid it and the tooth didn't sit right now I dont think I can get it out and I cant bite down with any other teeth as that bad tooth is sitting a hair high.

    These instructions seem helpful. I had a filling fall out not once but twice. The first time they got me in that morning. The second time they were booked up fully and I haven’t gotten in yet. I’ve used this stuff in the past but it usually wouldn’t last long because I was trying to repair a cavity not a lost filling, which of course if it’s a untreated cavity no good can come from this. But for lost filling it can hold up for a couple weeks I suppose

      Glad I could help. The temporary material shouldn't hurt your tooth. It may help it feel better, it may make no difference at all. Mostly what it does is fill the missing space and cover any exposed dentin and it helps keep food from getting forced into the space when you chew.

    A crown fell off but no area dentist has appointments for a few weeks. If the DenTek holds up, would it be unsafe to use it until then? 2. Why do the directions to secure loose crowns, etc. say rinse the tooth and crown area "and do not dry?" Isn't being dry the key to a secure bond? Thanks!

    • @VeryNiceSmileDental
      @VeryNiceSmileDental  Рік тому

      1. If the crown stays in place, then yes you should be ok.
      2. the material sets up when exposed to moisture. You won't be able to thoroughly dry off the tooth at home so it's not an issue. It's not easy to place the material in a puddle of saliva. The material doesn't bond to the tooth at all, it's held in by the undercuts in the hole (think of a dovetail cabinet joint).

      The material itself can easily last a few months, but it depends on the shape of the broken part of the tooth. The material will stay in place better if the missing part of the tooth is cupped out. If the missing part is very flat or smooth, the material may not stay in place well.

    @Very Nice Smile Dental Thanks for the video. I have a tooth that had root canal work done 30yrs or so back. The original crown fell off~20 yrs ago and my local dentist put it back in and this has repeated roughly once every 10yrs or so. The current crown last came off around 10yrs ago. At that time, I had moved and went to a new dentist who indicated that the post and other "scaffolding (?)" seemed in decent shape so he said let's just try to put the cement in. That lasted 10yrs or so before the crown came off today while eating rice (off all things, i.e. nothing hard). Picked up the product in this video and then found your video while searching how to use it. I have traveled across the country and when I called the emergency line of dentists in this area, I was told the line is for established patients only. Unfortunately, the Airbnb I am staying at does not have the tools mentioned in this video except maybe the cotton. So hoping to a) clean the inside of the crown as much as I can with my oral-b electric toothbrush's circular head but not sure if I should use that to clean inside the root canal cavity? b) so wondering if just swishing with cold water might be effective in cleaning that cavity? And finally, c) thinking might use gauze to help clamp down (didn't find temporary mouthguard)? Thank you for any additional tips in advance.

    • @VeryNiceSmileDental
      @VeryNiceSmileDental  2 роки тому +1

      Sorry to hear about your situation. Make sure to test fit the crown before you use the temporary material. Clean out the inside of the crown as best you can first. You can also use your toothbrush to clean your tooth before you put the crown back on. If the crown doesn't fit properly or if it is very loose, don't use the temporary material and see a dentist as soon as you can. Thank you very much for watching.

      Hi, whether or not the material stays in place depends on the tooth. There are situations in which even a filling placed by a dentist won't stay in place. Who's covering emergencies for your dentist?

    Every time I chew on my top molar the food seems to gets trapped in the cavity or something and my gums swell and it's painful. But it's a soreness kind of pain. Doesn't seem cavity related. I've had plenty of cavities and root canals and I've never experienced pain that only happens when I chew. So I just don't know what to think. But if I do in fact need a root canal, can I fill the cavity with dentek until I get it done or is that only for small cavities?

    • @VeryNiceSmileDental
      @VeryNiceSmileDental  3 роки тому +2

      It depends on the shape of the cavity. From what you are describing it sounds like food is getting stuck under the gums when you eat, which can happen if you have a cavity or lost a filling. Try the Dentek material and see if it helps. See your dentist as soon as possible. Thank you very much for watching!

      Throbbing pain means that either the nerve of the tooth is inflamed or the gum around the broken tooth is inflamed. It sounds like the tooth will need to be extracted. The temporary filling material won't help. Try to see a dentist as soon as you can. Thank you very much for watching.

The material just sticks to my finger or the applicator and nothing stays on the teeth more than a minute. After he closes his mouth it all comes off his teeth. Trying to find a way to get him to the dentist as this has been bothering him for five months. His dentist recommended that we use this DenTek stuff but it's not working for us. I haven't tried to cement the crowns back on because my husband has dementia and is likely to swallow them if they get loose again. He has already swallowed a tooth from his upper denture.
