Is tooth removal the only option with black teeth? I assume they are rotten but they’re not causing my any pain?

Tuesday, November 16th, 2010
Q.
On my top jaw my teeth between my canines have become black and smaller,due to a lack of dental hygene.Now I am starting to be more hygenic,but I fear that if I see a dentist he/she will want to simply remove the black ones.They don’t cause me any pain,just look quite horrible,so is removal the only option when teeth have become so black?I assume they are rotten,but obviously don’t know for certain.Any suggestions please.,

Are there any other applications that may heal my infected tooth rather than have it extracted?

Tuesday, November 16th, 2010
Q.
Dear Dr Caplan, I wonder if you could give me your opinion on my plight. For the past four months I have had an infection in my gums. This has caused some receeding of gum line on the upper and lower teeth and a stubborn abcess on a front upper tooth. Initially I was told that the infection is opportunitist because as we age gaps appear between root and bone and to take a mouth wash. No solution I then returned and was advised the only way to cure the infection would be to extract the tooth. There was no other remedy – once the infection occured its for life. Unfortunately, the bone may now be damaged and being diabetic an implant highly unlikely. At 48 I face the necessity of a denture. Are there any other applications that may heal / remedy the infection other than extraction. Any observations would be much appreciated. Best ,

I can’t get my infected tooth root canalled until late November. What can I do to alleviate pain in the meantime?

Monday, November 1st, 2010
Q.
I started having pain on one of my teeth about 10 days ago. Last Friday I went to my dentist who took an X ray, cleaned my tooth and put a temporary filling. The following day I was not feeling any pain but 2 days later the pain came back and is constant. I went back to my dentist today and he told me that I would need root canal treatment. Unfortunately the surgery I go to is extremely busy and I don’t have an appointment for my treatment until the 20th November which means that I have to wait over a month. I am worried because I know that the pain is not going to go away until I get treated. So I would like to know if there is any way I can ease the pain until then. The infected tooth is a molar so I was wondering if it wouldn’t just be better if I had the tooth removed instead of waiting that long. I hope you can advise me. Thank you. ,
A.
