How and what to use in OTC filling binds

[Bea2007]

Hi,
My tooth filling fell off and I am unable to go to the dentist till I get my covid vaccine.
Can I use the OTC filling repair bonds ? Which brand is best and how to use it ?
Any precautions with eating foods ?
How long will it last before I get to the dentist ?
Thanks for all the replies !
Bea

Good day

Any brand should be fine. If the tooth is asymptomatic, just keep the tooth as clean as possible. Avoid brushing on the filling too much, to avoid brushing the filling out.
If the tooth becomes symptomatic, rather book an emergency appointment with your dentist.
Hope this helps.
