“Tooth filling is actually very simple, and you can DIY yourself.” “Afraid of going to the hospital? It is more convenient to fill your teeth at home.” There are endless pushes related to DIY” self-service dental fillings.

Is this “self-sufficient” filling really reliable?
“The price of fillings is not the tangible cost, but the intangible cost is the value.” Zhang Zhiwen, deputy chief physician of the Department of Stomatology of the North Jiangsu People’s Hospital, introduced that the formal From the point of view of the operation process of filling a tooth, first of all, it is necessary to use professional tools to remove the decayed matter in the tooth after disinfection, and it also needs to be trimmed, and at the same time, the appropriate material is selected for filling, and the medical staff who operate it also needs to have a grasp of the shape of the tooth. Familiarize yourself with the structure of teeth.
It should be noted that when filling the tooth, if the decayed matter is not removed, it will continue to decay, which may damage the nerve of the tooth. I bought my own materials to fill the teeth, and the surface looks repaired, but the inside is still broken. Once the nerve is damaged, root canal treatment is often required. In addition, if the shape of the supplement is not suitable, if the supplement is high or low, it will also affect the occlusion of the teeth. If the supplement is high, it will cause jaw trauma, and the chewing function will be affected if the supplement is low.
During these operations, the oral cavity needs to be treated with strict moisture barrier to control the influence of contaminants such as saliva and blood. It takes at least 15-30 minutes to complete a cavity filling and repair according to the above-mentioned specifications.
Professor Huang Cui, director of the Restoration Department of Wuhan University Stomatological Hospital and an expert in dental restoration, introduced that medical students need at least 5 years to complete the theoretical knowledge study and professional training in the university , After obtaining a bachelor’s degree, it takes at least 3-6 years of standardized clinical diagnosis and treatment training and vocational skills professional training in order to grow into a master’s or doctoral degree. After entering a clinical job, it is necessary to continue to study.
Therefore, the various DIY dental operations introduced on the Internet may seem simple, but not realistic. If you want to deal with oral problems well, you can restore the teeth properly and restore the beauty and function without affecting the daily life such as eating and speaking, which requires high professional skills in oral prosthodontics.
In addition, the filling materials used in regular hospitals are produced by regular manufacturers, and the qualifications are traceable and will not affect human health. For such online shopping materials, ordinary people lack oral professional knowledge and oral medical operation ability. It is not only difficult to judge whether the materials are qualified for sale, but also difficult to comply with the principle of sterility, so everyone must not fill their teeth by themselves. Xiaoqian reminded that dental problems should be treated in regular hospitals and clinics in time, and the Internet must not be trusted.
