My partner has a tooth ache and his whole face is swelled up what can the dentist do?

Monday, June 1st, 2009
Q.
Hi, My partner had crowns fitted to his teeth. Two years ago one came loose and he had to have it refitted. He has never had any problems at all, until now. He is really over the top with his cleaning and looks after his teeth very well (better than me. On Sunday he devekoped a tooth ache. On tuesday he went to his dentist who took an e-ray but he said he couldn’t find where the problem was. He gave him some Amoxicillin and said to take nurofen. He was in a lot of pain so I took him to the doctors on Wednesday she prescribed a painkiller. On Thursday we went back to the dentist as his whole face swelled up. The dentist gave him Metronidazole. Today Sunday he is still in absolute agaony, the swelling is still there and he cann’t open his eye. The painkillers don’t do anything and it has not improved he has a very high temperature. I am going to take him to the doctors again. The Dentist has said to come back in two weeks…… why is he taking so long to treat it? and what can he do? thanks so much

It sounds like he has a large … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Monday, June 1st, 2009
Q.
Im a 19 year old who is petrified of going to the dentist. the last time i went was in 2003. My mouth is in a pretty bad state, two of my teeth at the back are rotten(beyond repair in my opinion) some of my lower back teeth need fillings and im pretty sure i need a root canal as i am in pain. I am too embarrassed to speak to my parents about this and with limited funds. Finally, i would like to be sedated as much as i can as just the thought of the dentist starts to make me panic. what are the best options open to me?

should i be worried about the small area of filling which has been replaced by another dentist

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009
Q.
Hello: I have a filling in one on my back teeth, a month ago a small part of that filling fell out as i didn’t feel pain i didn’t book an appointment with the dentists. for tree days I was in pain so I decided to see a dentists. She told me that there’s not decay or another cavity in that area, so she just replaced the small area which fell out. I’m quite concerned as I’m not sure if It had been better to have the whole filling removed, and because of that I could have something bad in my tooth. The thing is but the moment I’m living in another country I’m i’ll see my dentist in four weeks. Should I be worried? My teeth are in really good condition as I see my dentist at least twice a year. Thanks

My teeth has been removed and now i had a awful infection should i go ahead with implants

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009
Q.
Dear Dr Moore, I had two lower back teeth removed with a bone graft on both. My dentist gave me antibiotics but as soon as they were finished I had the most awful infection, my face was badly swollen and I was in terrible pain until the end of the second round of antibiotics. Is it possible for you to tell me if I would be at higher risk of infection when (and if) I go ahead with the two implants. I am terrified of getting more infection. I am 60 years old. Many thanks. PS. both extracted teeth were quite badly diseased and decayed.

A.
Most infections are caused by … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

my upper left wisdom tooth has decayed what is the option implant or be crowned

Monday, May 4th, 2009
Q.
I’m 47 and have had a phobia of dentists since I was 12. At this time I had four upper teeth extracted for orthodontic work. Unfortunately this left me with gaps in my upper teeth, not quite big enough for crowns. For the last 25 years I have gone every six months to a dentist I trust and have had some cosmetic work (mainly white fillings) I have always wanted a perfect smile, but my teeth seem healthy for my age (although some are quite heavily filled) and the whole effect is reasonably OK, and so I’ve put up with the gaps. Recently my upper left wisdom tooth has decayed and might need to be removed. Could you advise me what would be the best option? Could the root of this wisdom tooth be crowned, or would an implant be possible? Although not wealthy, I would be able to afford to pay for the work needed. The other problem is that I think my dentist, although professional and pleasant, is unlikely to understand my wish for cosmetic work because of my age. Your advice would be very welcome.

A.
As it is a wisdom tooth, the b… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
