It took me 3 attempts to get the filling to stick in place: the first attempt lasted less that 12 hours, the second attempt 36 hours but the third attempt was successful and it has now been there for almost 3 weeks. Wonderful! I am very careful at all times when eating and cleaning my teeth, but it has been a real 'port in a storm'!

Worked well years ago and needed again during this lockdown. The gutta percha stick is very useful for lost fillings as it’s reasonably hard wearing and doesn’t usually come out apart from anything sticky. BUT, biggest complaint is the quantity supplied is very small. Gutta percha is relatively cheap even dental quality and to supply so little, 2cm approx is stingy at the price.

The instructions tell you to cut a quarter inch length from the filling stick, soak in boiling water for 30 seconds, mould and place in the tooth cavity- this doesn’t work, as it is not pliable enough to mould, and sets almost immediately! I went through a whole of the rest of the filling stick by keeping it in a pan of boiling water, but it still wasn’t pliable enough. I bought 2 packs from eBay as there is a shortage during Covid 19 lockdown and Dentist being shut - total waste of money. Tooth-fill is a much better product.

It's proving useful during lockdown. I had a metal cap on a tooth at the back of the mouth fall out. No dentists working if it isn't an emergency. Not possible to fix cap back in but if you use enough mixture you can fill any hole to protect the roots. I'll be buying more soon to tide me over until we can see dentist again. Gave a three as I only filled the tooth yesterday so I don't know how long repair will last. Could turn out to be an expensive wait for a return to normal times.

IT DOES NOT WORK!!!!!!! Tried 3 times and it fell out each time. It didn't harden. It was still soft when it came out. I even stuck a hairdryer in my mouth to try and dry the tooth as recommended by one user and left it overnight to set but it fell out first thing the next morning. It was expensive and apparently they have doubled the price and halved the amount in the packet!! I feel that they are abusing the covid situation and making money out of desperate people. Luckily my dentist has reopened for basic treatment and I now have a proper temporary filling in place.
