What do u suggest for a loose tooth?
Monday, August 24th, 2009Will my gums get back to normal after taking the brace off?
Monday, August 24th, 2009Q.
Hi, Im 14 and have braces. Im very worried about the size of my gums. I have had my braces for a year and 8 months. My teeth are fine but I have very bulbus gums. They are progressing under my wire and are puffy. But they are normal colored. My orthodontists have told me to to brush in circles against the gums (from the top and bottom) and up into them. In the past I have been able to make them go down a little bit, but then they end up flaring up again. I have been trying again recently and Im not having any luck this time. Im worried this is permanent. Im also worried I’ll have to have surgery on my gums, which I dont want. Will my gums go down when my braces come off or not? Thanks

Is swelling connected to tooth and antibiotics?
Monday, August 24th, 2009Q.
I had an infection in my impacted wisdom tooth lower left side. I have been give antibiotics for 7 days which I finished 5 days ago. When I rub my gum with my finger it still has the same unpleasant smell as before albeit milder. I was told to use Corsodyl on it which I am doing. I am almost 60 years old, there is no pain, but……….before taking the antibiotics I developed a swelling under my arm, the doctor said it was my gland but didn’t seem too worried and said “keep an eye on it”. Whilst taking the antibiotics the swelling reduced in size to about a third, but now I think it is getting a little larger although hard to tell. Could this swelling be connected to the tooth? The swelling is on the opposite side.

Assessment of bite
Monday, August 24th, 2009Q.
Hi i had new crowns fitted at the front , top and bottom,the right hand side below and the left hand side top. Everything was fine until i had the lefthand bottom done, i ended up with an infection but it cleared up i had a root canal and crowns went back on some of the crowns are also a bridge. From then on which is over 10 months ago i cannot eat anything on that side at all cannot even press down with my finger as it hurst too much. I went back to the dentist twice and one of the answers he gave me was my body could get use to the pain or use sensitive toothpast. I went to see another dentist about 3 weeks ago and he said my bite was wrong, i went back to my dentist today (different dentist as mine had left from that surgery) and he said they were a good job and one of my own teeth at the top may need filing down, never had any problems before crowns. My jaw has now started cracking on occasions but he said that sometimes happens. My tongue on the opposite side of this now has a white patch on it where my tooth is catching on it due to being only able to eat all the time on that side. So what do you think should be my next step i have never been pain free since i had these done. Thanking you.

Financial packages for smile makeovers using crown lengthening
Sunday, August 23rd, 2009Q.
I have small teeth and when I smile you can see quite a lot of gum. I would like big white teeth and heard that there was a procedure that could scale gums back. Is this true? Also, could I have this treatment in conjunction with having veneers fitted and overall whitening to create that ‘hollywood’ smile look? How much should I expect to pay and are finance packages in usually place if I am unable to pay the full amount up front?

Is care required for teeth to avoid gum diseases after 40’s?
Sunday, August 23rd, 2009Q.
I was told by my orthodontist that if I don’t take action with my teeth soon I could wake up one morning when I’m in my 40’s with my teeth laying on my pillow. Is that something that has really been known to happen?
