Hi Gordon,
Six years ago my old dentist did a 'deep filling' and said she put 'medicine' in it before she placed the amalgum filling. I don't know what it was or why it was used?
During one of my last fillings with my new dentist, he was replacing the amalgum filling (mentioned above) with a composite filling. I know the routine of getting a filling by now, and after he filled it--but before he put that crazy glue smelling stuff on he asked his assistant for a couple of things that he put into the tooth. He never did this with my other fillings.
Could you tell me what this "medicine" is and why it is used?
