Question:

Fixing hole in tooth?

I have a small hole in my tooth to the left of my two front teeth and I was wondering if there was anyway to get your teeth to kind of repair themselves so as to avoid a costly visit to a dentist.. Also any foods that are good for you're teeth would be appreciated. Thanx

  1.     TEETH DO NOT repair themselves.  Once you have a hole in your tooth you have a cavity.  the cavity needs to be drilled out and replaced with a white filling material....if you can already see the hole chances are its pretty big and it may even need a root canal. you must see a dentist asap ,  waiting will only allow it to get bigger and this may lead to tooth loss and a severe infection or an abcess.  Fillings are not that costly!.....can range from 120-220$$.....chances are if you have a hole in your front tooth you have other cavities in your teeth. Please do yourself a favour and see your dentist asap.

    you can prevent NEW cavities by brushing and flossing and getting your teeth cleaned regularily.  Some good foods for teeth are milk products like cheeses and yoghurt.  but you must brush twice daily


  2. No, teeth do not repair themselves.  That would be a great idea though!  Please see a dentist ASAP, if it is a cavity it will only get bigger and more expensive to repair. While you are at the dentist, they can tell you what to eat and also how to take care of your teeth daily. Maybe even suggest a sealant so you will not get any more holes, or cavities. You are worth a visit to the dentist.

  3. No dairs no way to gt ur teeth repaired by yourself.....if it was lyk dat den wat wil da dentists do?????....its only dat u can prevent it further by gtin it treated as early as possible....bcoz if da problem increases further da cost of da treatment also goes on.....

  4. teeth are alive they are made up of enamel, dentin, and a nerves. if there is a whole in your tooth then chances are the enamel had broke and you have what is known as a cavity. and this needs to be repaired by a dentist or hygienist. I have never saw the DYI home dental kit to repair  cavities at home , Simply  because the cavity must be cleaned hygienically buy a professional I think that it is very possible that you could  cause  more damage than repairs when attempting to repair on your own. go to the Dentist don't be fear full, they will ensure your comfort and cause you no harm or pain that is undue.

  5. is it a gap between 2 teeth or a whole that is like through one of your teeth? either way you would more than likely need to see a dentist. if it is a gap you could try pushing the teeth over constantly with something but that normally only works when you teeth are just starting to come in after the baby tooth falls out.
