Just got a temporary filling for root canal, can i drink alcohol or do i have to wait?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Material: Depends on whether the temporary restorative material is dissolvable in alcohol. Ask the General Dentist or specialist Endodontist that did your treatment. Please remember temporary fillings are not very strong and need to be replaced with a more permanent restoration as soon as possible.
