Customer Review: Perhaps the Best Dental Emergency Kit Available - Dentist Opinion
Summary: 5 Stars
This kit contains the following items: Temparin (a Zinc-Oxide temporary putty), toothache Medication (Eugenol), and a container for an avulsed tooth or crown. The kit has virtually everything you need to address most non-emergency dental mishaps. (An emergency dental condition is one where there is throbbing pain, infection, and/or swelling - these conditions need a dental professional!).
To replace a lost filling or to temporarily fill a cavity hole, rinse out the area with water and then dry as much as possible with the supplied cotton tips. The cavity must be dry for the material to adapt to the cavity. Using the applicator, place enough Temporin material in the hole to fill it and have some excess. Then, using a wet finger (use water to wet the finger first so the material will not adhere to the finger), pack in the material and remove excess. Temporin has NO adhesive qualities, so unless the hole in the tooth has undercuts, the Temporin will eventually fall out. Remember, this is a temporary (think days - perhaps a week).
The same material can be used to secure a lost crown as well. Dry everything (crown and tooth) well and then apply the Temporin to the inside of the crown, seat, and bite together until the bite feels normal. Note: if the crown has a portion of the tooth still inside it, or a post sticking out of it, the Temporin will not hold very long, if at all.
Finally, the kit has a small container to place an avulsed tooth into. Place some saliva or milk in the container (enough to cover the tooth), and immediately bring tooth and patient to a dentist for reimplantation. If possible, place the container in a plastic bag with ice around it. Do not in any circumstance try to clean the tooth or scrape the root! Leave it alone. In order for a successful reimplantation to occur, it is best to have the tooth reimplanted within 2 hours. If this is not possible due to distance or inaccessiblity, rinse the tooth of debris with water or milk, and then orient the tooth and implant it yourself. (This will likely hurt - push it in and bite down on it with sufficient force to seat it). Then get to a dentist ASAP for splinting of the tooth.
The kit also contains a vial of Eugenol, an obtundant, which lessens tooth pain. It can be applied directly to the tooth area exposed, or a drop or two can be mixed into the Temporin before it is packed in the cavity hole.
This kit is not a "cure-all" for dental mishaps, in fact, no kit exists on the market. It is however, a complete package of dental materials to treat MINOR dental mishaps. Don't expect anything more than a temporary fix.
