I had implant work a week ago i am now having a lot of pain now could it be an upset nerve

Saturday, June 6th, 2009
Q.
I had implant work (complete implant with temporary) a week ago because of a fractured tooth root and an abcess, was taking 500mg of Amoxicillin for 3 days prior to surgery (just finishing the course today), 2 days after surgery I started to have soft tissue swelling around my mouth not just at the operation site, which is now being treated with 1 week of Metrondiazole. I am having a lot of pain now with the tooth next to my implant, is it possible that the original infection has spread across, or could it just be an upset nerve, as it has felt a little strange and tingly since the surgery? Will the antibiotics i’m on kill any remaining infection or should I go back again before my post op check in 4 days time. I don’t want to be a nuisance to the dentist, but I just worry I shouldn’t need so many pain killers a week after surgery.

Saturday, May 30th, 2009
Q.
I currently have two teeth which by dentist said will benefit from being crowned. However he said that if I have these crowns on the NHS, they will have to be done in metal and will be seen as metal in my mouth, rather than porcelin and that to have a porcelin crown I will have to pay privately. I have tried looking for this information on the NHS website, under the band 3 information, however nothing is stated. Could you give me any information regarding this please.

In theory this is correct as p… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

My three year old son has lost his front teeth is there anything be done to save the tooth?

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009
Q.
Hello, I am writing to you regarding my three year old son. About two weeks ago he banged his front teeth on the side of the bath and now one of the teeth has lost all of it’s whiteness and gone dark gray. Our dentist says the tooth will have to come out but I would dearly like to get a second opinion on whether the tooth can be saved (I have read on the Internet about something called a pulpotomy?). I suppose what I am asking is can anything be done to save the tooth and make it look normal again and where can I go to get this done? I live in the north west of England, but would obviously travel to get the problem fixed properly. Many thanks for your time Best regards
