Answer:
Dear Torstein,
It is very common to composite fillings causes symptoms. In some cases there may be symptoms for up to several months and in some cases the symptoms disappear never. I think you should visit your dentist to see if your clenching is in order. If a load or more is too high, they can cause similar symptoms.
Hope you can use my answer.
Sincerely
Dentist Joan Olsen

Sensitive tooth after filling new
21st October 2009
Filed in Pain and Anesthesia , Teeth
Question:
I have 2 weeks ago had made a filling in my fifth tooth in right over the foot (counting from the middle). With the same stunning stopped working, I noticed a significant sensitivity when I chew on it. Additionally, I feel a strong tension in the palate and sometimes also in the tooth. These symptoms came with the same stunning stopped working and their intensity has not changed in the 2 weeks have passed since then. Incidentally, I can mention that the tooth is not sensitive to cold or hot. And the dentist after he had made filling took time to adjust the filling to my bite. What may perhaps be the reason?

Answer:
Dear Martin,
It may happen that the teeth become sensitive after they get a new filling, especially plastic, but if this sensitivity is not resolved or not to keep going, you must visit your dentist again.
Hope you can use my answer.

Complaints about teeth whitening
8th October 2009
Filed in Complaints , Cosmetic dentistry
Question:
Hello
I have a couple of days ago got my top 6 front teeth bleached at my dentist. My one tooth is slightly darker than the others when it to use my dentist's words are "silted up" after a blow from which the milk tooth knocked out when I was around. 3 years old. During the bleaching was the first for himself, with a product that was smeared on the 1 - 1 ½ mm thickness and then it would stir in with a kind of spatula (did the dentist) for 10 min, then got all 6 incisor teeth the game for 10 min. Just after treatment, I could see a little difference, but already after 4 -5 hours, I think that I was back to square one and could / can see no difference. My dentist has not yet received payment, when she would switch plastic fillings. But it is not necessary to replace the plastic fillings when I can not see the color difference anymore. My question is about this may be true that I have to pay a few thousand kr for any difference or if I can complain or similar?

Answer:
Dear Josephine,
I think you should talk to your dentist about what you think. It's hard for me to comment on such a specific question when I do not know how the starting point was and how it looks today. I do not think that you will get something out of that complaint, when your dentist just did not make a wrong treatment.
Even if you are complaining about the treatment, you should be aware that you can not avoid having to pay the bill. So immediately I would suggest you find a solution together with your dentist.

Dear Jane,
This suggests that it is the temporomandibular joint on the right side that bothers you. Talk to your dentist about it. He can also exclude it from the teeth or muscles.
Pain at the change to plastic fillings

Question:
I have changed all my old fillings out with plastics. It's almost 3 months ago and I still have pain in most of the mouth. Is it normal for Replacing the plastic fillings or should I visit my dentist?

Answer:
Dear user
It is very common that the teeth may be sore for a new plastic filling. Some causes symptoms up to 6 months and others will never be asymptomatic. If this has great genes with them, the tooth probably rodbehandles. It's always a good idea to consult dentist if you are unsure or have pain. I do not know how many panels it comes in your case, but perhaps the chewing surface adjusted if you chew too hard on a few teeth, it can also cause symptoms.
Hope you can use my answer.

I'm considering changing silver fillings out with plastics
5th May 2009
Filed in Cosmetic dentistry
Question:
I have some old silver fillings which I intend to migrate out of plastic fillings because I think it looks prettier.
The old fillings are not particularly visible but can be seen when I laugh and some of them are quite large.
What considerations should I make before I make the investment in a whiter smile?
Answer:
Dear Anonymous
It would be best to talk to your dentist. Then you can add a treatment plan of the fillings needed to change and what can wait. Then you can take one by one without it being too expensive. It may well turn out to be an expensive affair to change silver fillings out of plastic.

Mvh.Susanne
Answer:
Dear Susanne
I understand you're frustrated. But the teeth wear out with age, and it is quite normal to the crack over time, especially when they have been drilled before. The reason may be caries or infraktion in the tooth.
You could search the municipality for funding for dental care. Then you and your dentist make a treatment plan that says what treatments are necessary and how much they cost. This must be included when applying for grants. It is individually where / or if you get some money for treatment, and this is taken into consideration the type of income you have.
Hope you can use my answer.
