My Experience
I had a filling fall out and I needed it replaced.
I walked into the doctor’s office about 15 minutes before my scheduled visit because I was told I would have paperwork to fill out. The assistants and dentist explained the procedure to me. The tooth area was then numbed with an anesthetic the dentist started working. There were no complications other than some sensitivity while they were working on the specific tooth.
After the procedure I was really numb. After the numbness went away, I was careful what I ate given the sensitivity for that particular section of my mouth.
My Advice
Carefully select a dentist who is good and also who you like so that the work is done professionally, and if there is a problem – in this case a filling came out – they will work with you to solve the issue.
