DenTek Dental First Aid Kit
DenTek Dental First Aid Kit provides you with a quick and convenient short-term fix for replacing a lost tooth filling cap, crown or inlay until you can see your dentist.
DenTek Dental First Aid Kit contains:
- Eugenol to help to anaesthetise and disinfect the affected area.
- Applicator and spade tool for easy application.
- Tooth saver vial provided for protecting broken or whole teeth.
- Temparin Max, containing the temporary filling material uses the same ingredients used by dentists.
Directions
To replace a lost filling:
- Wash the cavity area with warm water to remove food particles. Do not dry the area.
- Saturate the tip of a fresh cotton swab applicator with liquid from the Eugenol vial and apply to tooth. The Eugenol will help the filling material set up and adhere to the tooth enamel.
- Avoid touching surrounding gum tissue, cheek, or tongue with wet applicator tip. Do not leave the applicator in mouth.
- Cut with spade tool or pinch a small amount of Temparin Max from the vial, and roll into a ball between fingers.
- Slightly overfill the cavity with Temparin Max and tamp into place with applicator tool tip.
- Close your teeth together, as if you were biting down on a piece of paper, and gently chew or grind on the replaced filling a couple times to create a comfortable bite.
- Use a fresh moist cotton swab to remove excess Temparin Max from around the area.
- Temparin Max will set softly in your mouth within a few minutes, but avoid chewing on the repair for 2-3 hours to allow the material to fully set.
- Seal any remaining Temparin Max back into the vial to avoid it hardening over time.
To secure loose crowns, caps, or inlays:
- Try the crown, cap, or inlay first to see if you can fit it accurately back onto the tooth surface.
- If you are not able to do so, or if remaining tooth is cracked, then do not proceed further.
- If the crown has a post attached to it or if there is tooth surface remaining inside the crown, Temparin Max may not adhere.
- Carefully rinse the tooth area and the inside of the crown, cap, or inlay with warm water, and do not dry.
- Cut with spade tool or pinch a small amount of Temparin Max from the vial, roll into a ball between fingers, and place evenly inside the crown, cap, or inlay.
- Place the crown, cap, or inlay on the tooth and bite down, applying pressure to push it into position.
- Temparin Max will begin to harden within a few minutes, but avoid chewing on the repair for at least 2-3 hours to allow the material to set.
- Use a toothbrush to gently clear any excess material from around the crown, cap, or inlay.
- Seal any remaining Temparin Max back into the vial to avoid it hardening over time.
