Town and Country Dental - Jackson WI - Following Restorative Treatment

This material is already hardened with the use of the high intensity light. You may begin to use it right away.
You may experience some minor discomfort the first few days following your treatment. This should diminish gradually over time.
If you have been given an anesthetic, this should wear off in a few hours. Please be careful not to bite your cheek or tongue. Also, do not eat or drink anything extremely hot or cold until the anesthetic has completely worn off.
The bite should feel normal when the anesthetic wears off. If sensitivity to hot, cold or biting pressure persist longer than one week, please call our office for a follow-up evaluation and/or simple adjustment.
The tooth will look natural in color, so you may not be able to notice the restoration.
The surface texture and consistency may feel a little different at first but, will smooth with use.
Do not bite anything with your teeth that can damage them (such as finger nails, thread, fishing line, paper clips, pens, etc.).
We recommend professional maintenance and evaluation at least twice a year. If you have had a periodontal (gum disease) problem in the past, you may be advised to see us three or four times a year.
Proper care includes BRUSHING and FLOSSING a minimum of twice daily. Proper maintenance will not only prolong the life of the restoration but will also help to prevent problems elsewhere in your mouth.
