Dental Fillings
Last week my spouse lost a dental filling while we were eating dinner.

An hour or so later, I lost one I had for 28 years.

This evening my mom mentioned she had a dental appointment tomorrow for a lost filling.

I just lost another filling.

This one I had 32 years.

(I remember dental fillings vividly because I have very few.)

Yes, let us know if you all are wearing masks...

If it was mercury fillings you should all be glad. Don't use those.

Re: Dental Fillings
Yep. It is normal. Dental filing get loose and have to be redone after 30 years. If it will be awhile before you can get to the dentist, irrigate the region with somethig like an infusion of water that has boiled and cooled that had garlic and honey in it. That will kill any germs and or infection.

If it is absolutely clean, and you can't get to the dentist, they make a temporary filling you can pack in there yourself. You must not pack in debris and infection though as that will spread across the cranial nerves like 5 and 7 and go the brain.

Take a tooth infection seriously but an ordinary common sense frugal approach with work for awhile.

Re: Dental Fillings
What do you think people did in 1840? They may be far away from a town and have to remedy it themselves. Why do you think chewing tobacco was popular? That was an old way to treat a sore inflamed tooth.

The way I suggested will work. If you can, go out in the yard, get some common plantain, mash it up with the garlic and honey and clean water. It will work.

Re: Dental Fillings
Wash your hands and take your finger and rub around the gum where that filing fell out. Is there a pocket bulging out? If so, that is an infection. It will pop easily. Wash that with a mouthwash with phenol in it like listerine. See that phenol was used on wounds in ww1 to disifect them. Then do as above. That has to be lanced. Then it will heal just fine.

The reason it is sore and inflamed is that has a pocket of dying white blood cells that tried in vain to kill the infection.

Re: Dental Fillings
The average life of an amalgam silver filling is 18.9 years. I think its something like 12 years for white composite. People think they last forever but eventually you get micro-shrinkage which then allows bacteria to get into the root.
Not uncommon to have a filling last 30+ years but actually it probably was already failing to seal the gap 5-10 years before.

Many times dentist have been found to start drilling holes everywhere just to collect the cash and ruin perfectly good teenage teeth over a minor surface defect which then sets them up for a lifetime of problems. The worst thing you can do to anyone is drill deep holes in molars and fill them with toxic mercury.

Cut garlic into pieces and massage gums and teeth with liquid which remained on your fingers from garlic cutting.

I experienced that. A dentist ruined my teeth when I was a kid and I had a silver mouth. That continued until the fillings fell out and teeth crumbled. Now I have crowns and implants, but the teeth look OK on first glance. I don't chew much and don't miss that, but I really had to pay along the way.

Dentists like to blame you for tooth decay, no matter how hard you work to keep the teeth together.
