Would there be a problem if a filled teeth is brushed ?

i have a broken front teeth which my dentist filled it 4 days ago.currently i am using a mouth wash to clean my tooth afraid that i might mess up the filled teeth , but i have a feeling that my tooth are not as clean as they used to be when i was using a brush

Would there be a problem if a filled teeth is brushed ?
You NEED to brush that filled tooth. As a matter of fact, that is the only way you can keep that filled tooth healthy.





If you don't brush off the sticky bacterial plaque that is on the tooth, the plaque will break down the tooth's enamel where it meets up with the filling, cause the filling to loosen, and cause a new cavity under the filling.
Reply:You should be fine to brush by now.
Reply:How old are you and why don't you know the difference between and how to use tooth and teeth?
Reply:Brush and floss or you'll get a cavity from plaque buildup.
Reply:First of all it's a filled "tooth" NOT a filled "teeth". How old are u anyway? Well, it is okay to brush a filled tooth, when it is done drying.
Reply:After a filled teeth, you shouldn't brush for a week or you'll wash the filling out.
Reply:IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF THE WEIRED FEELING AFTER THE REFILL. IT'S AS HARD AS A BRICK, SO AS LONG AS YOU'RE NOT EXPERIENCING ANY PAIN GO BACK TO YOUR NORMAL ROUTINE. OR ELSE IT WILL START DECAYING AGAIN AND HAVE YOU GOING FOR ANOTHER REFILL. FOR NOW EVERYTHING INCLUDING EATING ON IT IS GOING TO FEEL FUNNY, BUT WITH TIME YOU'LL BE BACK TO NORMAL MINE TOOK YEARS.
Reply:MICHAEL,


FYI THE TOOTH WAS SAFE TO BRUSH THE MOMENT YOU LEFT THE DENTAL OFFICE. THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE IF THE DENTIST USED A WHITE FILLING WITH A BLUE LIGHT TO HARDEN IT.


THIS TYPE OF FILLING IS READY TO BE SAFELY BRUSHED THE MOMENT YOU LEAVE THE DENTAL CHAIR.


IF YOU DON'T BRUSH YOU WILL GET A CAVITY ON THIS TOOTH AGAIN = MORE DRILLING AND MORE SHOTS.
