Hello i have a broken filling the tooth is slightly broken as well but i dont have any pain yet. I plan to get it fixed but after my trip in a few days. Can the tooth cause me complications on my flight? It doesnt seem infected yet. What can i do to avoid the infection until i visit dentist after my trip
Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand. As per your complaint in case if you have a broken tooth with fractured filling and there is no pain or infection, then you need not worry as it will cause no problem provided that you should be sure that the nerves are not opened up, and it will not flare up. Although you can get it treated later on but on being on a safer side you can get the x-ray of the tooth done to confirm the condition of the tooth. In case if there is no infection and only filling is fractured, you can get the tooth refilled as it is a short time procedure, and you can get it done even before the trip. Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards. Chat Doctor.
