I’m In Agony With My Wisdom Tooth. I’ve Tried Painkillers But My Dental Appointment Is Days Away. What Can I Do?

Thursday, June 5th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Mark Hughes. I need your help or advice. I’m in agony with my right wisdom tooth and the right bottom tooth. I have a hole in the tooth and it’s so painful I can’t sleep, I’ve tried everything to relieve the pain until my dental appointment. It’s five days away and I don’t think I can wait that long, I’ve been taking regular painkillers, salt water and even ice on the cheek but nothing is helping. Please help me in having many sleepless nights because of this. Thank you for your time, I hope you can help me.

I Have A Hole In My Tooth And My Gums Hurt. My Dentist Is Fully Booked, Should I See My GP?

Wednesday, May 28th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Hughes. I have a question for you. I have a very painful tooth and gum, which is currently preventing me from eating properly. I can’t get an appointment with my dentist at the moment. He suggested that I take Ibuprofen but it is not making any difference. What else can I try/use? I do have a hole in the tooth which has been there for a very long time. I don’t think I can wait for 2 weeks to see my dentist, do you think I should see my GP?
Thank you for your reply in advance.

I’m Currently Not Registered With A Dentist And My Teeth Are Starting To Decay. What Should I Do?

Friday, February 7th, 2014
Q.

Hi Mark, I’m 17 years old, (nearly 18) and have decay in around 6 of my back teeth which is making it increasingly harder to eat. I haven’t been to the dentist for 2 years and I’m currently not registered with one. Also one of my top front teeth is black in 2 spots at the back which is now coming through the front. Another one of my top front teeth has a black line along the top of it. Finally one of my front teeth has 2 holes either side of it and the tip of it, the hole at the tip is black. I would like to know what you believe I would need to have done with the information I given, if it’s not enough then I apologise. Also I would like to know if it’s likely I could have treatment done while being put to sleep?

Can You Tell Me The Cost Of A Gold Tooth Please? Would A Payment Plan Be In Place?

Tuesday, January 28th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Moore. I was thinking about getting a couple of gold teeth but I don’t know much about it. I do have a hole in one tooth that I want to get done with gold, a canine and also the one to the left of my canine. Can you tell me how much it will cost please? I don’t want a 24 carrot one, a nine carrot would be okay. Do I have to provide the gold myself or is that in the price? Where should I look for this type of procedure and would a payment plan be suitable for me.

I Have A Small Hole In The Gap Between My Teeth. My Dentist Missed It And It’s Starting To Bother Me. Should I Have Told Him?

Wednesday, January 22nd, 2014
Q.

Hi Andrew. I have a small hole located next to my front teeth, in the small gap between the two. It is very minute and when I went for a check up the dentist didn’t notice it at all so I didn’t bring it up, should I have mentioned that this bothers me? I feel I may need a small filling but how large does the hole have to be for this to happen?  Obviously I’d need a white filling with it being at the front of my mouth, any advice would be great. Thank you.

My Fear Of The Dentist Has Led Me To Do Something I Regret. Please Help Me Before I Visit The Dentist?

Wednesday, November 6th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Gambroudes. I was wondering if you could give me any advice. I had a hole in my tooth and being terrified of the dentist I stupidly bought Denseal superior and placed the glass isomer compound in my tooth. Now I want to remove it and visit a dentist. Do you have any idea what will either loosen or dissolve it? I want it removed before I visit the dentist as I don’t want them to know I was so stupid to use it. Any help is really appreciated, thank you.

Is The Hole In My Tooth Dangerous?

Thursday, May 9th, 2013
Q.

Hello Doctor, I was wondering if you could help me out at all. My problem isn’t too urgent I don’t think, but it has been bugging me for a little while so I’d like to have it cleared up. Basically, I have a small hole in one of my top front teeth. It is on the top near the gum. It doesn’t hurt or grow bigger. It just stays as it is. It may be a cavity but don’t cavities hurt and get bigger ? I was wondering what this might be and if the dentist can fill it . I don’t know what it is because it has stayed the same size for many years now. It hasn’t hurt. And the last 1-2 times I went to the dentist, I had it and he has said nothing about it.

Why Am I Having A Filling When There’s Barely A Hole?!

Friday, January 18th, 2013
Q.

I went to the dentist today I have not been for over a year as my previous dentist retired and it has been hard with work trying to arrange an appointment I went for a check in and was asked if I had a problem with my teeth the only problem I had was once every couple of weeks when i am brushing my teeth at the back i it feels a little bit tender but apart from that no pain etc so the dentist could not see anything so she said she was going to do xrays so when the results came back on the left hand side of my teeth at the back she showed me my tooth and pointed out a very small dot that i could barley see and said i would need a filling i have never had a filling before and i dont understand why the dentist would want to give me a filling when there is only a little bit of decay can you help me get my head around this?

I Had A Bad Experience With A Dentist And Have A Very Painful Tooth. Will The Dentist Make The Pain Worse Poking Around At It?

Tuesday, January 8th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr,
I am 6 1/2 months pregnant and my upper back tooth is quite sore. in fact i am in intense pain everynight. Before pregnancy this tooth has a hole in it and a few years ago it gave me problems. However, I have maintained it myself as I had a horrid experience with a dentist when I was 19. I am 28 years old now. Can you advise me on what i should do. I am currently taking amoxcillin 250mg three times a day prescribed by my GP. Any advice and possible dental treatment that I could get when pregnant would be most appreciated. My concern is that after a trip to the dentist and poking at this tooth, i will be left is worst pain than i am in now.
Many thanks, 

A.
