My mum keeps getting absesses which means her teeth are being removed, what is causing the abscesses?

Tuesday, June 8th, 2010
Q.
My mother is in her 60s, over the last 12 months she has had abscess after abscess which have required teeth to be extracted to the point where she only has about 3 left. What are the possible reasons for this? Her dentist seems quite happy removing her teeth and not looking for an underlying cause. He is also not doing anything about replacements and she is now finding eating very difficult and the few teeth that are left are causing great discomfort to her bare gums. Please help,

Does my daughter need different antibiotics or is it necessary to remove the tooth?

Friday, May 28th, 2010
Q.
My 6 year old has had a course of antibiotics for dental abscess. It has improved but not resolved. Does she need different antibiotics or is it necessary to remove the tooth? Also she has decay in another tooth and the filling has fallen out. Could this tooth be treated with a crown. I have been advised to leave it as it is as it is not painful but is there a risk of further abscesses developing if we just wait and see? Thank you for your advice.,

Should I have a tooth extraction or the root canal treatment?

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010
Q.
Hi i have had several fillings performed on one of my molar teeth in the last 6 months (the last a deep filling) and have recently had an abcess. My dentist gave me a course of antibiotics and gave me the option of a root canal or extraction. However he stated that the prognosis wouldn’t be good if a root canal was was performed. I don’t really want to lose any of my teeth and feel that i have been ill advised. Having read loads of literature on root canals it appears to have a high success rate. Plus at the age of 30 would the rest of my teeth shift if iwas to go-ahead with a tooth extraction.,

I have autoimmune disease and my top teeth are falling out! Please Help!

Monday, March 29th, 2010
Q.
I am running out of top teeth! I only have 11 consecutive left (insisors and premolars). Now I have an abscess on the first (and my last) molar on the top, after seeing an Endodontist root canal procedure doesn’t seem an option. I have autoimmune disease and wondered if it is possible for a MDI to be carried out to replace two of the missing molars on either side (ie first molar on right and left side of mouth). I have a strong gag reflex so not sure if I can tolerate partial dentures. Many thanks.,

No sign of an abscess but there is bad pain please help!

Friday, March 26th, 2010
Q.
My 13 y/o son had a broken front tooth repaired in May w/ a veneer placed. For the past 2 days, he has severe pain above the tooth but no notable signs of abscess. This morning he woke up and his front lip is mildly swollen. The pain increases at night with Advil only mildly helping. What do you think is going on and what are his options. He sees the Dentist tomorrow morning. Thanks!!!,
