You skipped a step first you try duct tape then JB weld.

I've seen DIY temporary filling kits at Walgreens before. If nothing else, they probably taste better than JB Weld.

Tag for impending epicicity.

Duh! I thought everybody did that. It's a common fix for ARFCOM members and you are showing your ignorance by even asking.

btw, post pics so the new guys won't ask this stupid question.

I am not sure that you want JB Weld in your mouth.

Posted: 7/19/2008 10:29:22 AM EDT

[#14]

Possible? Probably.

Wise? Erm... fuck no.

Lemme put it this way: if you do it, when you see a dentist to have it redone properly, he will be well justified to smack you upside the head a few times.

I'm sure it's quite similar to the enamel cement that dentists use, only it's available without a prescription.

I, for one, anxiously await your step-by-step instructions complete with pictures.

So im thinking.. gring the molar down a bit with the dremmel. make a wall around the tooth with another piece if duct tape. dry it well with a can of compressed air. fill the walled area up with JB weld.. use 2 popcicle sticks to keep my mouth open to let it dry.

think i have it all covered?

Don't they use Super Glue in surgery now?

You're going to need tiny clamps to hold the pieces together until it dries though.

Yep Gorilla Glue is the shit...but having to clamp the area tightly for a couple of hours might be a tad bit uncomfortable.

Theoretically speaking, I suppose it's possible. However, JB Weld isn't really intended for this application, it may be toxic, etc. I don't recommend that you do this.

Being that Gorilla Glue expands with moisture while setting, this is probably not the best way to go. However, I will say that it will most likely be the most painful way to go.

Some where in that process you forgot the hammer. I know you will need one....

just wait for it to get abcessed and then you will kick yourself for NOT going to the dentist.

Besides many things auto related, a guy I worked with lost a filling and 1/2 a tooth, put JB weld on it and no more pain.
Now I dont think its too smart to put those chemicals in your mouth, but he's not the only one that has done it. He got the idea from somebody.
He's the same guy that glues cuts shut with superglue after squirting them out with Brake cleaner...Ouch.
