DenTek Home Dental First Aid Kit for repairing lost fillings or securing loose caps, crowns or inlays (packaging may vary) with spade tool

Product Information

I had a filling fall out and needed something as the dentist isn’t open. The bonding agent smells (and tastes) like a really strong clove oil. It makes you really salivate so prepare for drooling! I don’t think this would work for a chipped tooth as I don’t think there would be enough grip to stay put. But as I’ve got the hole drilled by a dentist so there is a good area to stuff the putty into if that makes sense. Just put the bonding agent in the hole and stuff the putty in with the tool. Bite and grind to smooth. I did mine last thing at night after a good brush and clean out of the hole and next morning it was set. It’s been in for a couple of weeks now. Able to eat on it. Brush and it’s not moved yet. I understand it’s a temporary fix, but before I could not bite on that side due to pressure pain (no pain without biting on it) and now I can with no pain. First aid kits were first thought up by Johnson & Johnson in 1888. A conversation aboard a train between Robert Wood Johnson and the Denver & Rio Grande Railway’s chief surgeon sparked an idea.

You probably already have gauze in your average first aid kit. You should also add it to your dental first aid kit to create barriers between the soft tissues in your mouth or to control their bleeding. Toothbrush I get squeamish at the idea of pulling a tooth without an anesthetic. I get even more squeamish if I think of having to pull out my wife’s or daughter’s tooth! Health Problems Embed an inclusive workplace culture at all levels in the GDC where all staff feel valued, welcome, integrated and included If the setting in which you work changes, your role in the event of a medical emergency may change as well. You must ensure that you are suitably trained and competent to carry out your new medical emergency role. This might be the case for: Wash the cavity area with warm water to remove food particles. Saturate tip of a fresh cotton swab applicator with liquid from the Eugenol vial and apply to tooth. Avoid touching surrounding gum tissue, cheek, or tongue with wet applicator tip. Do not leave applicator in mouth. The Eugenol will help the filling material set up and adhere to the tooth enamel. Cut with spade tool or pinch a small amount of Temparin Max from the vial, and roll into a ball between fingers. Slightly overfill the cavity with Temparin Max and tamp into place with applicator tool tip. Close your teeth together, as if you were biting down on a piece of paper, and gently chew or grind on the replaced filling a couple of times to create a comfortable bite. Use a moist cotton swab to remove excess Temparin Max from around the area. Moisture will accelerate the set. Temparin Max will set softly in your mouth within a few minutes, but avoid chewing on the repair for 2-3 hours to allow the material to fully set.

The emergency drug kit should also provide information on how to identify and manage medical emergencies to help staff respond effectively while awaiting professional medical help. All drugs should be stored together in a purpose-made emergency drug kit.

Some of you who regularly read the Primal Survivor blog know that I am following the Syrian war crisis (I do not want to start a political discussion. Rather, I believe that these modern-day disasters can teach us a lot about preparedness!). While some general items should be included in an at-home dental first aid kit, you can make your dental kit unique to your family's oral needs. For example, if you or your children have orthodontic appliances, you may want to add dental wax to assist with specific issues related to the braces.
