My 3.5-year-old daughter is having a filling tomorrow. Her pediatric dentist quoted us $144 for the filling itself and an additional $59 for nitrous oxide (if needed).
it is most likely the tooth had a small crack in it anyway. the tooth was alittle"high"from the new filling and the extra pressure from biting on it, cracked the tooth. usually after a new filling, you should go back to have the filling polished which strengthens the filling and adjusts the bite.
You don't really feel the filling and when the tooth comes out, the filling comes out with it. It is just like part of the tooth! HAPPY SEARCHING CHUMS:D!
Enamel is what protects the tooth, when your tooth needs a filling, it is because that enamel is no longer in that area. As you have no enamel where your filling was, it is highly likely that the hole will get bigger. It's much better to get it filled again to prevent further problems.
A dentist can put in a new filling.
A new tooth should not affect a filled tooth. If the filled tooth is tbeing replaced it will just fall out and the new tooth takes its place. If the new tooth is adjacent to or opposite the filled tooth it has no effect.
If you have a sore tooth from braces or separator's. A good idea is to take 1 or 2 pain reliever's.
Sometimes, if a filling is very deep and close to the nerve, a regular filling may not work. It sounds as though you will need a root canal. Find out more at: Thornhill Dentist http://www.bcdentalcare.ca
If the filling is still present, it should be visible to the naked eye, or at least visible on a dental x-ray.
The cost for a composite filling (Tooth Colored) for 1 Surface should be between $130 and $200.
needs to be smoothed.
To treat a cavity or cracked tooth a filling is used to fill the area of the tooth where the decayed material was removed or where the tooth is cracked. There are several filling materials available including gold, porcelain, silver amalgam, plastic, and resin.
Possibly a root canal. Or he could put a false half on it. Dentists NEVER "glue back on" the other half. If it is a small "chip" most likely a filling will do it. A larger break will require a filling to make the tooth "tooth shaped" again and then a crown. A root canal is only needed if the tooth had large decay causing the break or if the nerve of the tooth is damaged or exposed.
