I have to leave for a business trip in the morning and my stupid filling just fell out.  What do I do?!?

Sarah,

You’ll need to find an emergency dentist. There is sure to be one in Minnesotta. However, if you’ve already left for your trip, you can probably find one where you are on your trip.

They’ll be able to give you new filling. If there are any underlying problems that caused the filling to fall, they may just give you a temporary filling until you can get back to see your regular dentist.
