DenTek Temparin Max Lost Filling and Loose Cap Repair Kit | One Step Formula | 5+ Repairs | 0.04 Ounces | 2-Pack

These are honestly lifesavers & that's all you need to know. Very durable but not indestructible Long lasting if you follow the directions No excess pieces smear all over the mouth No mess during application A little goes a long way Minimal taste

l lost a crown on an implant during the middle of a cruise in Europe. The steel implant post was ripping my mouth up. I had the kit with me and was able to use it to reset the crown which stayed on until I saw the dentist in two weeks later. She had to gently pry it off. This works well if you follow directions.

Over the years I have had to use this product when I couldn’t get into see a dentist ASAP. i have to admit it pricing here is great! a brick and mortar store sells just one of these for around 7 bucks. As to my experience with this product, at first I didn’t have the greatest results. Ironic as I was following the instructions. But after using it for a time I got the system down so to speak. 1 - First make sure your mouth is clean, rinse well with mouthwash. Second the tooth you plan to apply it to? I found no matter this does not work well for chewing surfaces. Sides, corners especially if the surface is rough it does a great job. The more jagged and rough the area it is applied to the better it will adhere. Smooth surfaces just don’t have enough ridges to catch onto, live and learn. 2 - once ready and it is better to use less and apply more than the too much. But use a tiny screw driver or knife to get a tiny piece off. Then roll into a ball with your fingers. Then take your finger, use saliva or water so the material it isn’t dry. Next place the material where needed. Press in firmly so it gets into every nook and cranny. Then immediately gently bite down. If you can feel any material on the surface of your tooth get it off, use your fingernail, ASAP. Any other excess material remove also. too much is not a good thing. Then next use your finger to smooth out the exterior portion of the material so it blends in as near as possible with the surrounding tooth surface. the material should not make direct contact with the gum line. If it does once dry, frequent jaw movement will result in the material failing sooner. 3 - Once it is pressed in firmly, placed properly and smoothed out, now you wait. For the next 8-12 hours it hardens up. Do not eat anything whatsoever on that side of your mouth. When drinking do so on the other side too. The first day after don’t chew anything not soft on that tooth, side of mouth for a full day. Once you are at day two the material has hardened up enough to eat normally. That said never eat things like nuts, hard candy, beef jerky, steaks, etc., on that repaired tooth as even at its best it is still not nearly as strong as a dentist’s filling let alone your natural tooth. Otherwise if you do it right nine times out of ten I ended up getting about 2 weeks per application before having to repeat the steps. If you ever happen to swallow a piece don’t worry it is nontoxic. Also that white paste residue you’ll get on your fingers? Just take a tiny bit of rubbing alcohol and it comes off easily. For those who complain about messy hands, go see your dentist as you can’t have your figurative cake and eat it too. it done right i have had mine last up to a month. if done incorrectly it may last a few days or minutes. how you apply it is critical. This material has not changed for years because in my experience it is the best temporary option available. Under normal circumstances it is good to have on hand. With the current covid-19 spread globally I stocked up. not only could it become difficult if not impossible to see a dentist if things turn out badly but I for one do not want to go anywhere near a crowded waiting room on the off chance someone there might be a carrier. So I recommend this product based on years of use and tweaks I learned along the way to make it last longer. It isn’t for all situations but for the money it certainly cannot hurt to give it a try. Even if you don’t’ need it now, having it on hand is just one less thing to worry about.

Works great....Holds longer than any product I have ever used..

I was saddened to find out, in the midst of a raging pandemic, that my largest dental filling had fallen out. I was not vaccinated and not ready to risk going to the dentist, so I ordered Dentek. It is okay as a very temporary filling, and that is all they claim it to be. The company advises going to the dentist and having the tooth worked on within 48 hours. This did not seem advisable, so I have used Dentek, plus the other leading brand, repeatedly and will continue to do so until my dental appointment 2 weeks from now (I have my vaccine shots now). At first I used too much and that created problems. A small amount will do. There are more applications of it in the tiny container than they actually claim. The Dentek is a bit grainy and will sometimes adhere for a day or two. The other product, Dentemp, has more of the texture of wet putty and falls out all at once. Neither one is great, but it will have to do until the chemists/researchers come up with something better. Okay in a pinch, so long as you keep your expectations low.

Please do not waste your money buying this. I purchased this product to fill a cavity until I am able to make it to my dentist. When I first opened the package, I was hopeful because it seemed easy enough to use, the directions were easy, and the product seemed like it would work. Then I made the big mistake of actually using it, it crumbled in my mouth, would not stay packed into my cavity, my entire mouth was filled with what seemed like pieces of crumbled chalk. The entire two hours, which suppose to be the amount of time needed harden was filled with disappointment because it just kept crumbling inside my mouth and I had to keep spitting it out. The residue left me with an upset stomach!!!! I wish I could have gave 0 stars!!!

My filling fell out a while ago and I did not want to go to the dentist. Hate the dentist. I use this instead and it works. Occasionally after several brushes or a number of certain meals I have to refill part of it but most of it stays in and always protects the nerve from being exposed. I used to feel pain from exposure but it's all gone now. I just try my best to take care of my mouth and am a little more mindful of that particular tooth. I'm investing in good instruments to floss, polish, remove tartar, remineralize, and whiten teeth so unless I'm literally dying gonna try to save this tooth and my wallet as it isn't giving me any problems when cared for. I numb the area when it's time to refill and generally avoid chewing on it especially if it's hard stuff just so that it lasts longer. I don't like hard or sticky sweets anymore so it doesn't really affect my quality of life. Can still enjoy just about anything I want and I'm always trying to eat healthy anyways so it all works out. This is not medical advice by the way. Please see a dentist if experiencing critical dental complications.

We first came across this during lockdown when it was lamost impossible to see a dentist. The paste is rolled into a ball and pushed into the cavity where it sets hard enough to cope with gentle eating. It does take a bit of skill initially to master the technique, hence a missing star, but once mastered it's really good and we always have some on hand now 'in case'.

Amazing value and fantastic product

great

Good travel pack
