DenTek Temparin Max, Home Temporary Dental Repair Kit, 12+ Repairs

EDIT: After using this and going back to the dentist, he commented on the neat job it did and it posed no difficulty in removal. I had an accident in my past that left me with a fractured tooth. I was advised by the dentist that it would eventually fail, but as it wasn’t causing any problems, I may as well leave it and monitor it. Several years on and it caught up with me. A chunk broke off and left me with a sharp edge. The dentist did an emergency filling with an appointment for a permanent repair in 4 weeks, but within 2 days it broke out – curse my love for salted peanuts! I took a punt with this and wish I had done it earlier rather than pay for a temporary filling. It was really easy to use. Inside the pot is a little roll of a thick paste. Kind of like putty but a lot thicker and dryer. You simply use the provided tool to take a sliver off, roll this into a ball and push it into the void. There were more detailed instructions, but that was it in a nutshell. A wet finger can smooth it over and it naturally dries to a hard layer. Probably best to do it before bed so you don’t have to think about it. Recommendations – Clean your teeth and rise with mouthwash – you don’t want to trap bacteria in the gap. Don’t put too much in to start with. Get the feel of where it is before you push it in as it can be awkward if you need to use your least dominant hand and you can’t directly see it in a mirror. If you get it wrong, remove it straight away before it hardens, although not a major problem as it will eventually come out. Any overfill should be smoothed off and removed. It is only a temporary fill and not fix. It can keep food debris out, prevent anything touching a nerve and thus relieve pain. You may need to repeat application depending on where it is used. For me it was on my molar on a side that I chew the most and absentmindedly eaten on that side and broken the repair twice – will someone take these peanuts away from me! It can easily break off, but it is only designed to be a fix until you get to see a dentist within a few days. Unfortunately, whoever stated this clearly doesn’t have an NHS dentist with a backlog of 6 weeks. Bottom line – can save you a lot of pain and is a good enough fix until you can get a permanent repair. Might be something to take on holidays from now on.

Lost molar filling before holidays and sensitivity was giving me jaw and ear pain. This was quick and easy to use. Applied before bed so I didnt eat on it for hours, but gashed my teeth a goodun to make sure it was the right shape. Pain has gone and holding strong after a few days, with plenty left to take with me just in case. Only minus star as I found it for 1.99 in a bargain shop

Very good product if you have patience for 24h ! Just avoid using the tooth for 1 day and then its alright for a temporary fix. My paste is still sticking after 1 week

Works alright as a very brief temporary fix to prevent stuff going into an open filling, however they wear out rather quickly and you'll need to redo it. Was easy for me to replace my missing filling.

Great item. Allowed me to replace a lost filling until I could get to the dentist. Easy to use. 'Filling' lasted a long time. Good value for money. Great to take away on holiday 'just in case ...'

If i could give 0 i would. Its waste of money. Not work at all. First eating and it's coming off. Absolutely rubbish. Couple of times applying in the night before bed to have enough time to get harder but nothing. Absolutely disappointing.

Good value for money.

Not the best product, I had a filling come out and the earliest I could book a dentist was a month away. Bought this product to provide temporary relief. Applying the product to the tooth isn't hard, just roll a bit into a ball and press into the area. It stays put and provides some releif... until you eat or drink! Any contact to the product causes it to disolve, even after "setting" for hours or overnight. I find I have to apply the product numerous times a day. I'd expect it to last a little longer than one meal.

Not working for temporary crowns . Even after carefully following the instructions, the crown kept falling off within hours.

un ottimo sostituto di livello dentistico e non come quelle otturazioni da farmacia che dopo due pranzi si dissolvono . qui parliamo di 1 o 2 mesi di tenuta senza particolari problemi. piu' che sufficienti per pianificare una visita odontoiatrica in serenità anche se siete fuori in vacanza al vostro rientro.

My crown fell out and this stuff really works... just clean the tooth and the crown, dry it, put this Den Tek filling in it and pop it back in. Worked great!! I do recommend and hope I don't have to buy it again.

Buen producto, cumple con su prometido.

No good
