I am struggling to keep tartar from the back of my two front lower teeth. Can you offer any practical advice?

Tuesday, November 2nd, 2010
Q.
Dr Hughes. After years of not looking after my teeth due to a fear of the dentist, I got gum disease (suprise suprise I hear you say!! I have since booked my ideas up and after 2 years of regular dental appointments and a new dental regime my gums are back to health. HOWEVER I struggle to keep the tartar from the back of my 2 front lower teeth and because of my previous gum disease I have practically no gum left at the front or back of these 2 teeth. My dentist doesn’t seem too worried. There is a little movement in them but not much. Is there any surgery I could have to cover up the space where my gum has dissapeared? or could you suggest anything else? I am 36 years of age and use to have lovely white teeth some of which are now stained as a result of using Corsidal. Any advice on treatment would be very much appreciated. ,
A.

I can’t get my infected tooth root canalled until late November. What can I do to alleviate pain in the meantime?

Monday, November 1st, 2010
Q.
I started having pain on one of my teeth about 10 days ago. Last Friday I went to my dentist who took an X ray, cleaned my tooth and put a temporary filling. The following day I was not feeling any pain but 2 days later the pain came back and is constant. I went back to my dentist today and he told me that I would need root canal treatment. Unfortunately the surgery I go to is extremely busy and I don’t have an appointment for my treatment until the 20th November which means that I have to wait over a month. I am worried because I know that the pain is not going to go away until I get treated. So I would like to know if there is any way I can ease the pain until then. The infected tooth is a molar so I was wondering if it wouldn’t just be better if I had the tooth removed instead of waiting that long. I hope you can advise me. Thank you. ,
