Most common questions used to investigate
Are you set to undergo a teeth root canal treatment?
Are you set to undergo an inlay placement for your tooth?
Have you recently undergone an emergency dental treatment?
Common conclusions
Undergoing teeth root canal treatment may require temporary filling of your tooth. Your dentist may cover the area with an antibacterial paste, which hardens in 10-20 minutes and keep the hermetic tightness in your mouth for up to 14 days. However, such a temporary paste will be typically removed by your dentist after couple of days, when it will be switched to a permanent composite filling.
You may require a temporary filling. Once your tooth cavity is prepared, it is necessary to cover the cavity with an antibacterial temporary material to reduce sensitivity. The material hardens in 10-20 minutes and can provide hermetic tightness for up to 14 days until your dioxide or ceramic inlay is ready to be placed.
You may require a temporary filling in order to suppress a possible infection process. The filling typically remains in your mouth for 10-14 days.
Based on your answers, it is difficult to determine whether you will require a temporary filling. Consult your dentist for more information.
