Dental Fillings

Instructions for your New Filling

• Your mouth will be numb for awhile. Average time is two hours but can range from one to five hours.
• Be careful not to pinch, hit or bite your cheek, lips, or tongue while they are numb. If you do, they can be quite sore later.
• Avoid chewing while you are numb. Take liquids and foods that can be eaten without chewing.
• White fillings can be flossed at any time
