First Aid for a Filling that has Fallen Out

There are a few helpful ways to take care of the sensitive "hole" that is left after a filling has fallen out until you can see your dentist. One way is orthodontic wax. It is soft and moldable and will help protect the sensitive area until you can have it treated properly. It is found in most drug stores. You might also consider a temporary dental filling found in many drug stores. The wax solution is usually a little less messy.
