Has my root canal treatment failed?

Tuesday, November 23rd, 2010
Q.

I had a root canal filing end of February/early March. The tooth has remained troublesome and is intermittently painful to bite on which appears to be worsening and also painful after eating certain foods. I can also feel a sense of discomfort on touching the tooth when brushing my teeth and also there is a certain degree of facial pain/ache although no visible swelling.. Do I assume that the root canal has failed and if so what would be the next treatment required. Alternatively, is this just something that will settle down?

Why is my molar filling suddenly painful after three weeks?

Wednesday, November 17th, 2010
Q.
I got a filling in a molar about 3 weeks ago and everything has been fine with the tooth since then. However, starting this morning I have gotten maybe 4 or 5 very quick, sharp, shooting pains in that tooth. They are not brought on by food or drink, and they go away as quickly as they come. Help!!!

The Enlighten Teeth Whitening treatment didn’t work, what should I do now?

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have had a similar problem with Enlighten Teeth Whitening. I completed the 2 week course and only half of my teeth whitened. Half nearest the gum did not. Then I went back to the dentsit to get the two 20 minute boosters. My teeth did look really white but now do not and the pain was really bad. Would I be ok to carry on whitening for another 2 weeks as I am worried about my enamel and if so do I need the two 20 minute gels applied again. Many Thanks in advance.,

Is there anything else I can do to help speed up the tightening of my teeth?

Friday, May 21st, 2010
Q.
Hello, I’ve had a knock to my face which has left about 3 of my teeth loose and very painfull also slightly chipped at the tip. I have been checked over by a dentist who suggested that the ligaments may be stretched and hopefull that they should tighten back to normal. I also had an x-ray which has shown a very faint crack although the dentist was not certain. I had a test done that indicated the teeth are still alive. The dentist advised of a review in a weeks time and another x-ray to see if the potential crack has darkened. The dentist has also advised on a soft diet. Is there anything else I can do to help my recovery and speed up the tightening of my teeth? I have been drinking lots of milk and also applying ice to my lip in the area were my teeth are painfull, not sure if i’m helping though. I will look forward to your response.,
