Why It's Important to Get Loose Fillings Fixed Right Away
Dr. Merlo-Murison can fix loose fillings in her Chicago Loop office. Fixing a loose filling is a relatively quick and easy job, as long as the underlying tooth has not been damaged. However, waiting to get a loose filling fixed can cause serious issues. Bacteria can get under a loose filling and into the area of your tooth that has been drilled out to accommodate the filling. The drilled-out area does not have the same protection that an untreated tooth has, so it is susceptible to a severe cavity. This cavity will reach deep into your tooth, as part of your tooth has already been removed.
