I have a sudden outbreak of gum disease next to my implant

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009
Q.
I have a sudden outbreak of gum disease next to my only implant which was put in over 2 years ago and has never given me any trouble. I am careful about brushing, flossing and cleaning so this is unexplained. Your site mentions “other drugs can even cause abnormal development of gum disease”. Could you tell me what these might be? Could creatine have any effect? Thank you

I have radiating pain in my upper teeth

Thursday, December 11th, 2008
Q.
Hi, I have radiating pain in my upper teeth. I believed it is one of the upper molar. There is nothing wrong with the tooth but I can feel sharp pain radiating. Sometimes, the pain goes away entirely. The gums are bleeding when I floss. Do I need a root canal? I’m scared since I’ve already had two in the past month.
