Q.
Dear Dr. Solanki, Having always looked after my teeth, I am very dissapointed to see that the enamel is visibly disintergrating on my inscisors.

Ive a hole in my gums and im worried about toxicity leaking advice

Thursday, July 30th, 2009
Q.
Hello Dr. Moore: Thank you for answering my question, and with such quickness. I have a follow up question to ask you. The tooth I was telling you about in my first question has broken as a result of an unattended cavity which I had not realized had rotted part of my crown. As a result I was eating something which broke the tooth in half (the crown). So I now have a hole in my gum where the tooth use to be. Would you still recommend using mouthwash and brushing? Also, from your knowledge and sound of my case is my tooth able to be salvaged and should I worry about any toxicity leaking into my system at all? Is this something that requires immediate attention, it just happened yesterday and I probably won’t be able to make it to the dentist until saturday sometime should I try to go in sooner? Sorry for all the questions and I appreciate your response once again!!! Thank you

A.
I’m sure it will wait until Sa… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

The dentist told me that sealant in one the molar came off can a cavity develop that quickly?

Friday, July 10th, 2009
Q.
I took my 9 yr old daughter for exam and cleaning last week to my dentist. After the cleaning, the dentist told me that the sealant in one of her molars came off and there were 2 stain pits. She said next time we come back, she would need to open up the tooth to see if it needs filling. My daughter was previously seeing a pediatric dentist and had cleaning done 5 months ago and at that time, her sealants were still all intact. Can a cavity develop that quickly? I am afraid of having the tooth drilled and opened if there is no cavity. I have been taking good care of my daughter’s teeth so I am not sure how she got the stain pits. Do we have another option for treatment?
