What role did cotton wool have on my decaying tooth over a period of fifteen years?

Monday, August 16th, 2010
Q.
15yrs or so ago I had a dead nerve in my upper left 2 ….the dentist at the time recommended a crown. Whist my crown was being made i was fitted with a temporary crown. Recently this crown came loose so I went to my new dentist to have this re-glued. To my horror the tooth inside the crown was rotten and was beginning to rot my front tooth. I had been complaining to the dentist that there was a smell coming from the tooth. The dentist discovered that on what was lef of my tooth was a lot of cotton wool ….which appears to have been left from the temporary tooth back 15yrs ago. What I want to know is what role did this cotton wool have on my tooth decay (there was a lot of cotton wool) ?……or why would my tooth rot like this as I have great oral hygiene?,
A.
I doubt it would have caused t… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Monday, August 9th, 2010
Q.

My front tooth has a big chip in it, the next tooth has a huge chip behind it, I’ve recently lost half of of a premolar and I’ve had to remove a molar for also losing half of it. My teeth are also very off-coloured , I have black stuff just where the tooth meets the gum, my bottom gums are starting to get a little black growing on it and I have terrible breath. I really want my smile back so I can meet girls again and be happy without feeling embarrassed about my hygiene. What kind of treatment would I have to undertake to fix my rotting teeth and bad breath?,
