"As the saying goes, if a small hole is not filled, a big hole will suffer." Yan Chunge reminded that the early stage of dental caries is mostly black spots with no obvious pain, which is often difficult to be found and valued. But once dental caries occur, it will only get worse and worse. If left unchecked, the small holes in the teeth will become larger quietly, causing pain and discomfort, which will lead to pulp disease, periapical disease and jaw inflammation.
Extended data
Generally speaking, it is best not to eat with new fillings within two hours after filling, because it takes 24 hours for most filling materials to completely cure.
In addition, if you eat something cold or overheated after filling your teeth, you should pay attention to observation. If the pain is not severe and the degree of pain is obviously reduced, you can leave it alone. If there is persistent pain that cannot be gradually relieved, it is likely that there is pulpitis or periapical periodontitis, and you need to go to the hospital for treatment in time.
In addition, it should be noted that if there is periodontal pain after filling teeth, such as dull pain when biting, and no pain when not biting, it has nothing to do with eating hot and cold food. This situation may be that the material is too high when filling teeth, and the teeth are exposed prematurely, leading to periodontal trauma or dentin caused by certain drugs.
If there is persistent dull pain after filling the teeth, the position of the pain is clear, and it is aggravated when biting, which has nothing to do with eating hot and cold food. This situation may be that the adjacent surface of the filling material is not trimmed, and food residues accumulate, leading to gingivitis.
