I may have to have dental implants... 2 of my teeth need excraction. I wanted to know, Im I going to go with out couple teeth for a long time? I would be so embarrased to go to work with no front teeth. Does the dentist put temporary teeth till I get the permanent ones?

My mum had her last 5 teeth out on friday(now its thursday) and a plate put in straight afterwards. She was NOT x-rayed first. The teeth bled afterwards for over half an hour. One tooth hole has become massively infected, she has had pus coming out of her nose and mouth, and had hardly slept. her mouth and threoat are infected. The pus has slowed, but now her jaw is numb.
The dentist has said shes just got a cold, the doctor had given her antibiotics for an infection. Should the dentist have xrayed her first? He DID x-ray my teeth, and told me Ive got to have 5 out too. Is he just a sadist? Is he ageist, he is trying to fob my mum of with this 'cold' theory. We are worried she might get a worse infection or something. Serious answers a great help thanks.

I brush my teeth at least twice a day, use mouthwash twice a day, and floss once a day, but I've never been sure about what order I should do these in and how often I should do each.

I didn't receive honest and fair treatment for replacing veneers.
I'm not smart that's why people take advantage of me but I hope someone can really stand on the patient side and help me.

The temporary angle was not the one I asked and they tried to force me to take it. Then they remake until I said I will complaint to association. But then they numb me for the try in. I can't judge if the angle is the same with my mouth wide open. At the end, it's the same angle as before. I found out they removed alot of teeth structure too. I ask at the beginning earlier but they just said trust them.

Tonite, they said they will remove extra cement and try to see what to do even free of charge but then I just found out they remove even more teeth at the back to make that area flatter but I looked at it everynite so I know they removed more. Is there a way to tell what is teeth and veneers. Will xray tell? I really want to cry because they don't care about me whatsoever. Wish someone help me.

My son who is five fell the other day and cut the inside of his cheek real bad. It was a gapping hole which bleed alot but stopped after about 10 mins. Now it is three almost four days later and it is still very swallon. it has also limited his movement on this area of his face. I am wondering if I should take him to the hospital. He is rinsing with salt water and also peroxide and water. It is hard to tell if he is hot due to a cold or possible infection of this area. he has had a cold and may only be warm because of this. What do you suggest?

I am switching to a new dentist because my old one is awful. My boos went to her also and switched he called and picked up his x-ray and files. I tried calling today and they told me I would be charged $25 for the x-rays and .25 cents per page copied and $10 an hour to copy the file. I should not have to pay for that should I ? My insurance company already paid for them... any help?

I mean are retainers used to keep your teeth strait or to acually straiten your teeth? I know some people have braces to straighten their teeth and then when they get them off they get retainers to help keep their teeth straight.
But what would the best option be?

My teeth aren't bad, I have a few that are a bit crooked or came in slightly twisted because there wasn't much room. Everyone says my teeth look fine, but they being twisted is a bit annoying and it bothers me. Do you think Invisalign would work okay for me? If you've had them before, I'd love a response.
