I am getting Braces soon and was wondering if afterward if I will need a retainer. Typically, do people get retainers after they get their braces taken off? I already had a retainer before braces for about 6 years.

Every morning I clean my teeth in the shower, it's the last thing I do before getting out.

It makes perfect sense to me as you can rinse off all traces of the paste properly, and you don't get it all over the sink (and have to scrub it off when it goes hard). I just like the idea of getting everything clean in one place.

Whenever I mention this to people, they think I'm barmy "You clean your teeth with hot water????" What difference does it make?

At night I use the sink unless I'm having another shower.

Is this really all that strange?

I get bilateral headaches. They dont throb, but it feels like tight pain as if someone has the top and the back and sides of my head in a vise, mostly on one side. Everyone says it could be my wsdom teeth or TMJ. Can wisdom teeth as well as TMJ cause refered pain to the top of your head, often it feels like shooting pains at the op of my head. Then I end up with th e headache.

With the advance of dental technology, deep teeth cleaning appears to be an additional new revenue enhancement procedure for dentists. Once this procedure is done, and one has their teeth cleaned regularly every 4 to 6 months accompanied by daily tooth brushing, etc., how often, [at what intervals] if ever, does this deep cleaning procedure need to be done again under normal routine circumstances?

I was talking to a co-worker who had braces and the question came up as to what prevents them from oxidizing (rusting) since they are metal and the mouth is constantly damp/wet from saliva and ingested liquids such as water, soda and milk.

This is my first cavity. I have a cavity in one of my molars and i went to my dentist to get it filled. I had it all summer so it was kind of big but anyway, she gave me anasthetic (or however its spelled) and she started poking at the tooths hole and drilling around it. Even with the anasthetic it was hurting so she stopped for a while "to let the ansthetic work more" but it didnt work at all because it still hurt so much when she drilled around the center of the hole. When she stopped i felt around my cavity with my tongue and the hole felt bigger I dont know if that was normal. was she supposed to make it bigger? AND she didnt fill it. She said we're going to have to do it another day because she doesnt know why it was still hurting so she filled it with some white gunk thats hardened right now. Its uncomfortable. Should i go to another dentist to see what they'll do? MAYBE THEYLL DO A BETTER JOB.

Is this linked to any symptom or is it a problem to do with snoring.

i have had people say that they have never tasted ear wax before.. not that anyone has purposely put their finger in their ear and tasted it, but has scratched their ear and 2 or 3 minutes later forgot that they just had their finger in their ear and put their finger in their mouth.. so my questions are 1: have you ever accidently put your finger in your mouth after itching your ear and got a taste of ear wax? 2. do you lie about having tasted it before wheather it be by accident or on purpose? 3. how many people have said they never tasted it? thanks and please be honest cause you and i both know EVERYONE has done it..

I started using Sonicare toothbrush. I like its performance very much, but someone told me that some studies have shown that the sonic action of this toothbrush not only lifts plaque, but also damages tooth enamel. Sonicare website, naturally, does not provide this data. Is it true & where can I find data from these studies?

I am planning on having some wisdom teeth extracted tomorrow, and I know it's supposed to be extremely painful--at least, when the numbing wears off.

My main question is, however, what are the visible effects? Is there swelling? If so, about how long does it normally take for the swelling to go down?

I've got plans for the day after, and I'd really rather not end up going while looking like I stuck my face in a beehive... but more than anything, I just want to know what to expect.

I had a rear molar extracted this morning, at first I was okay but after leaving the dentists practice on my way home, I started feeling extremely dizzy and had black spots appearing in my vision, I had to sit on the floor until it subsided; this happened twice more in the 500m walk to my house. It's been several hours since then, but I'm still getting dizzy spells while walking around in my house.

Everyone was very helpful, but everyone mentioned decay and abcesses. My tooth was filled about 10 years ago, my new dentist says the decay that went down to root but was OK to just fill....well I have started grineded my teeth and I just I irritated that nerve. My dentist says he can't see anything on the X-ray but that if it doesn't start feeling better (he refilled it too see if that would work) that I would need a root canal. Can this all be done in 1 visit, my dentist is 1.5 hrs away.
