My daughter chipped her front tooth.....is there a temporary solution ?

Question

we can't get a dentist app. til next week.......is there a temp. filling we can buy at a drug store???

Answer 1

Nothing you can buy over the counter will hold very well in a front tooth. You can try, but, it won't match and will probably just fall out. You can find temporary filling material along the other tooth related products. Did you tell your dentist's office that your daughter chipped a front tooth? Most offices will get a patient in right away for such  things.Good luck.

Answer 2

no your gona have to wait unitl you go to the dentist they'll fix it

Answer 3

One week isn't a long time.  Just wait it out.  

And no, I've never heard of temporary fillings you can insert yourself.  

Answer 4

You should just wait until you go to a dentist. Her tooth will be fine.

Answer 5

To my knowledge there is not. I chipped my tooth a couple months ago, and I couldn't get a appointment for a week. It was very irritating and I kept biting my tongue. I would just say wait, because you potentially could do damage to her tooth, that will worsen he discomfort, and cost much more to repair. As long as she isn't bleeding, and her gums/tongue are fine, the irritation shouldn't be much of a problem. Otherwise take her to a emergency room.

Answer 6

IS it a baby tooth? If it is just let it fall out. If it isn't, you should just wait to go to the dentist.
