Tooth filling process

Tooth decay is very painful when it occurs, and severe tooth decay can corrode our teeth. If it is not repaired in time, it is likely to damage the patient's tooth root. At this time, the only treatment is tooth extraction. Therefore, many people repair tooth decay in time when it just occurs, which can avoid the growth of many bacteria. So what is the process of filling tooth decay?

Toothache is not a disease, but it is really painful when it happens. When I was a child, I didn’t pay attention to what I ate and I found that small cavities gradually formed on my teeth. Some of my teeth gradually turned black, and some even rotted and turned into cavities. My parents would tell their children that their teeth were rotten because they had been eaten by small worms. In fact, there is no such thing as tooth cavities. It is just that we don’t pay attention to it in our daily lives, which leads to dental mold that gradually corrodes our teeth. You must take good care of your teeth at ordinary times. Don't delay if you have cavities. Don't wait until you leave the small holes unfilled, or you will suffer from big holes.

Steps/Methods:

1 When filling a tooth, you must first clean the damaged tooth tissue and remove all bacteria and germs, leaving a good position for the new filling so that the new tooth has a stable place to take root and has a certain resistance to break easily, or that the filling does not fit tightly enough with the original tooth and you cannot bite hard.

2 After the cavity is made, start disinfection and then put in the filling. When making the cavity, most of the germs have been eliminated, but in order to thoroughly disinfect it, it is necessary to continue to disinfect it with some strong bactericidal drugs that do not damage the pulp. After that, the filling material is prepared and placed in the cavity, the shape is carved, and the filling material that is higher than the occlusal surface is removed.

3 Finally, the tooth surface should be thoroughly polished. Because the surface of the tooth is smooth, but the filling is not, it may be random when solidifying, so the uneven areas of the filling should be polished and polished, and some residues remaining in the mouth should be removed in time to keep the mouth clean.

Precautions

It is normal to have slight pain after a tooth filling, and some pain can heal on its own. However, if the condition does not improve but worsens after a period of time, or if there is bite pain, or obvious hot or cold tingling, you must go for a follow-up check-up in time; it is best not to eat hard food in the first few days after the filling, and it is best to bite on the good side. Wait until the filling in the affected area grows firmly, and then slowly exercise your bite.
