Q. Hi I have just been to my dentist for a check up as I have a problem with shoting pains and aching pains from my top teeth up into my nose I had a nose operation 9 months ago which the ent says has healed well and there is no problems with my nose my two front canines have gun receeding very badly and my dentist suggested a toothpaste for sensitive teeth and a flouroide mouth wash I have done this for a week and it has improved slightly but can you tell me do you think this reedeing gums is causing me these problems and how long will it be before the problem has disappeared as i do not want to go back to the ent unless it is a problem with my nose and are there any other things that I should do to help this many thanks
