If you need a dental filling on Kos, tell the clinic when your symptoms began, whether an existing filling has broken and how long you will be on the island. A dentist can assess whether a filling is appropriate after an examination and imaging if needed.
What to confirm at the appointment
Ask which tooth needs treatment, which material is proposed and whether the filling will be temporary or permanent. Request separate written prices for examination, imaging and follow-up.
Aftercare and follow-up
Take care when chewing until numbness wears off. Contact a dentist promptly if the filling breaks or you develop severe pain, swelling of the face or jaw, or a fever. Ask for your records if you need follow-up at home.
