How long does a temporary tooth patch last?

Typically a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on where the tooth is and how hard you bite on it. Expect to reapply it at least once.

Can I use it on a tooth that hurts badly?

No. Sharp, throbbing or swelling pain points to decay or infection that a patch can't fix. See a dentist promptly.

Is it safe to eat with the patch in place?

Soft foods and chewing on the other side are safer. Hard or sticky foods tend to pull the material out.

Can I use it over a crown or bridge?

It can fill a small gap at the edge of a crown temporarily, but it won't re-cement a loose crown. A dentist should reseat that.

Three bottles of the temporary filling material. Follow the package directions for shaping and setting.

Our take on the Alvantor Temporary Tooth Replacement Kit

A three-bottle kit of temporary tooth-filling material for at-home patching of a lost filling, chipped edge or small gap until a dentist can be seen. It is a stopgap, not a repair: the material is soft and meant to be shaped by hand and pressed into place. It suits people with a sudden lost filling or a rough broken edge who need relief from sensitivity or a sharp spot for a few days. Dentists generally advise against using such kits as a substitute for an exam, since decay under a patch can spread unnoticed.
