Five things to note after filling a tooth defects, caries and other conditions need to be repaired by filling a tooth.
However, with the continuous progress and development of oral technology, there are more and more materials for filling teeth, which makes many patients do not know how to choose.
So what are the materials used for filling teeth?
What are the materials used for daily fillings 1. Silver-mercury amalgam is a material consisting mainly of the metals silver and mercury, combined with small amounts of other metals.
When silver amalgam is used to restore teeth, it is necessary to maintain a certain volume so that the teeth can withstand the resultant force without breaking.
Since silver amalgam and tooth tissue do not have adhesive property, it is necessary to prepare a box hole, design a good retention shape, make the two closely fit, mutually chimerism, good moisture isolation, in order to make the silver amalgam repair teeth firm and lasting.
2. Glass ion polymerized cementing powder Glass ion is a kind of multipurpose material with light stimulation to dental pulp and adhesive property to dental hard tissue, but its strength is lower than that of silver amalgam.
The advantage is that the color is better, and the teeth have a certain cohesiveness, is conducive to the protection of dental pulp tissue, prevent secondary dental caries;
But the disadvantage is that the wear resistance is not good, and it will not be retained for a long time.
3, composite resin composite resin is in the organic synthetic resin with a large number of special treatment of inorganic material filling material, it with the help of tooth surface treatment technology, so that it is bonded to the tooth hard tissue, mostly used for class III hole, class V hole filling;
There are also high strength composite resins available for filling class I and II holes in posterior teeth.
Photosensitive curing composite resin, its color is stable, strong adhesion, especially suitable for anterior teeth beauty restoration;
Chemically cured composite resin, easy to operate, although slight color change, is suitable for posterior teeth and lingual hole of anterior teeth.
4, zinc phosphate cement powder zinc phosphate cement powder is also known as permanent cement powder, zinc cement.
It IS USED AS THE UPPER BEARING MATERIAL OF DOUBLE BOTTOM OF DEEP HOLE, THE SEALING MATERIAL OF hole WITHIN HALF a year, AND also used for crown AND bridge repair of tooth restoration.
5, clove oil zinc oxide cementing powder clove oil zinc oxide cementing powder is also known as temporary cementing powder, butanoxy paste.
The BOTTOM LAYER MATERIAL WITHOUT BEARING FORCE, OR THE SINGLE LAYER MATERIAL WITHOUT BEARING FORCE, IS USED AS THE TEMPORARY SEALING MATERIAL OF THE HOLE FOR 1-2 weeks, and also AS THE filling material OF the root canal. Excipient is added as the periodontal plugging agent.
1. After filling, the solidification of filling materials needs a certain time. Therefore, food should be avoided within 2 hours after filling, and light and mild liquid food and semi-liquid food can be eaten appropriately 2 hours after filling.
Such as milk, bread, porridge and soup;
2. The appearance of the tooth after filling can be repaired, but the chewing performance of the tooth is damaged to a certain extent. Therefore, it is not suitable to chew hard food after filling, and the side of the filling can not be used for chewing at the early stage after filling.
3. If the caries are larger in patients, in order to protect the tooth and prevent the loss of the filling material, it is necessary to repair the tooth crown;
4. It is normal to have mild pain and discomfort after tooth filling, and it can only be adapted after a period of time. If the pain after tooth filling is not alleviated, but further aggravated, the attending physician should be timely adjusted and repaired;
5. Although dental caries after filling can be controlled, but if you do not pay attention to the cleaning of the mouth, it can still cause caries.
