Did procedure lead to these new problems?

Monday, August 2nd, 2010
Q.
Hi, Just before Xmas i had a tooth prepared for a Crown. My Dentist didnt place a temporary on as “your gum is a bit sore wont put temporary on to give it time too heal”. What with the Xmas period and not having the money to pay the remaining balance I went back 5 weeks later to have the Crown fitted. When I went back the Dentist said “just going to remove the temporary”. I told her she never put one on and she did seem slightly surprised. She’d obviously forgot she’d not put one on… Sorry this is long winded..Now i have sensitivity to hot and cold and have an awful taste and smell coming from that area. Is this because the crown doesnt fit properly as my teeth shifted from not having a temporary on? That is a guess but obviously I would value yr professional opinion. Please help as iv’e paid £400 for this treatment and now have sensitivity and smelly breath that i didnt have before!!,

What are my options with a limited budget?

Monday, August 2nd, 2010
Q.
hello doctor, I hope you’re doing fine.. I’m 29 years old now, & I lost my upper right first bicuspid today. my dentist advised me to take dental implant in next 2 weeks. But my mother wants me to just use braces (I talked to her when I got home), since I have closed bite in my front upper teeth (is it the correct term? Whenever I try to open plastic wrap food with my teeth, it seems to take forever!). In her opinion it’ll be more easier & cheaper since there’s an “empty room” so the teeth will rearranged it self and the gap won’t be noticed. My teeth is naturally straight, thank God, but just goes outward, yeah 4 mm distance from lower teeth. Which advice I should follow, doc? My budget is limited, so I don’t want to waste it in wrong choice. What do you think about my condition?,

sounds like an implant would b… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I’m experiencing a lot of pain since the extraction of my wisdom tooth, is this normal?

Thursday, July 29th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I had my lower right wisdom tooth extracted in hospital 4 days ago under local. It was very traumatic, and now I am getting a constant throbbing pain all along my jaw line, right up to the socket of my jaw near my ear. I am taking normal paracetemol as well as Ibuprofen but the constant throbbing and aching is starting to take its toll. I’ve done exactly as asked, Corsodyl mouth washes, salt water washes, brushing teeeth after every meal (soup and yoghurt and mashed potato). Is it normal for there to be so much aching and throbbing? My other teeth next to the one which was removed are also feeling “on edge” and sensitive. There is also a foul taste in my mouth despite my regular teeth brushing and mouth washing so am worried I may have dry socket.,
A.
It does sound like a dry socke… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
