Emergency Repair of Lost or Loose Fillings

Dental Filling Repairs in Miami, FL

A filling is a dental treatment used to fill in a cavity and protect the tooth from further damage.

In order to repair a tooth, your dentist may recommend a filling. What this means is that he or she will clean the area, remove any damaged material, and fill the open area with a special material that will harden, just like your tooth. This is done to prevent any further damage and decay to your tooth.

Why Would a Filling Become Loose or Even Fall Out?

There are many reasons why your filling may become loose or even fall out. These include:

Pressure in your mouth. The pressure applied when you chew may be enough to make your filling loose, especially if it is an older one. This is especially true if you eat a lot of hard food that can damage the filling.

Loosen due to saliva. The saliva in your mouth can react with the filling so that it won't bond as well.

Other decay. You may notice that you get a cavity and decay beside your filling, which will loosen the filling. If there is enough decay, the filling may not have anything to hold onto and it will just fall out.

What Is the Procedure to Repair Lost or Loose Fillings?

If you have a loose filling or it has fallen out, you need to see your dentist right away. Most of the time, he or she will be able to replace it with another filling. However, if there is significant damage you may be looking at a more extensive procedure, including a root canal, crown, or even an extraction!
