A lost tooth needs to be treated with a filling, but if the lost tooth is a wisdom tooth, a filling is usually not needed.
1. If you don’t get a filling in time after losing a tooth, the missing tooth may affect the normal bite, and the healthy teeth on both sides of the tooth will easily tilt towards the empty tooth, thus causing the tooth to loosen. Long-term missing teeth may also impair the chewing function, making the burden on the stomach and intestines heavier and affecting the normal absorption of nutrients. In addition, missing teeth are not conducive to maintaining oral hygiene, and are prone to various types of oral problems.
2. Teeth should be repaired as soon as possible after the loss of teeth, resin, amalgam and other materials can be used to repair the missing teeth, but also through the dental implant technology for repair. If the teeth fall out due to caries and other reasons, before repairing the caries hole also need to be dealt with, so as not to affect the filling of the filling material.
If there is a tooth loss situation, you should go to the hospital in time for examination to clarify the cause of tooth loss, and cooperate with the physician to repair the tooth as soon as possible.
