Help! My filling has fallen out and I’m on holiday…

There are some things you can take on holiday - a good book, sun cream, a sarong - and there are some things you can’t and a dentist is one of them. This might sound glaringly obvious but when a filling falls out it’s the first thing that springs to mind. That’s why dentists recommend packing a temporary filling kit in your suitcase.

Oral hygiene company DenTek’s Temparin® Advanced Repair Kit is right up there as a suitcase essential for the savvy traveller. It temporarily holds lost fillings, caps, crowns and inlays in place until you have a chance to visit the dentist. It is travel friendly, requires no mixing and is safe to eat on.

Dr Quintus Van Tonder, Clinical Director at Zandielle Dental Clinic in Attleborough says, “There’s nothing worse than losing a filling while on holiday and being unable to see a dentist. Nobody wants precious holiday moments blighted by toothache. Dental repair kits are easy to use and will tide you over pain-free until you can get to your dentist. It is, however, important to make an appointment to see your dentist as soon as you get home.”

Dentists also recommend that you clean the harder-to-reach areas of your teeth to reduce the likelihood of needing an emergency dentist. 77% of tooth decay starts between the teeth but only 31% of us floss on a regular basis. A toothbrush alone cleans just 60% of the tooth. To hit the other 40% that the toothbrush can't reach, oral hygiene products such as DenTek’s floss picks and interdental brushes are a must.

So, before you jet off on your next escape to the sun, remember to pack your emergency dental repair kit to keep you smiling all holiday long!
