Temporary Filling?
I had developed decay within upper molar and doc placed 'semi-permanent' filling (Indirect pulp capping beside calcium hydroxide and IRM). She said it will last for about 3 months. Those 3 months are over and I can see that the satisfying is intact and I don't have any discomfort except for very mild occasional sensitivity for extreme hot/cold intake. Do I still own to see the dentist just because 3 months are over although everything is fine? Or can I wait for few more months? Is here a possibility that this filling will never wear off and I don't own to see the dentist again? (Ha..I know..high hopes!!) I just asked because a friend of mine get a temporary filling 5 years spinal column and he never went back for long-lasting filling because his temporary wadding is still intact.
Answers: Semi-permanent filling mainly GI filling can last anything between 1 month to 5 years. The dentist probably filled to tooth near this to see if the symptoms would ease off beforehand filling the tooth with something more irredeemable as it is easier to replace.
If your tooth is still sensitive this could indicate some underlying decay. If left untreated this could develop cause the nerve to possibly die off surrounded by the tooth causing abscesses and thus the tooth may need a root filling (aka root canal) or and extraction.
You should jump back and visit the dentist so that the tooth can be jam-packed with something more permanent and to trademark sure there is no extra decay.
However, it is up to you...you could start out it until symptoms get worse, but its best to sort it out earlier.
A dentist is doing its best to let go our teeth. When a temporary filling is done it is because the tooth have to be observed first whether he or she will do the permanent filling. You will own to tell the dentist after 3 months (as your doc said) if it's no longer giving you pain so that he would replace the innards into a permanent one otherwise, the tooth will be extracted. It is not because the filling is still intact, another call on to the dentist is no longer needed. It always pays to take honourable care of our teeth with the doctor's oblige. I know someone who has had a impermanent filling for five years, because they are afraid to go rear to the dentist. It might be ok and could be left like it, but i would agree to the dentist see it to make sure.
I think that Kellsy have gave you the answere already and you should heed it-The worse has already be done and over with so the next nourishing is a walk in the park. IT SHOULD HAVE A PERMANENT RESTORATION.
