I got a root canal on my upper pre-molar #4 2 months ago. A couple weeks later I became light headed and got dizzy waves. This stuff has continued since then. The tooth is not sensitive to hot or cold, and not sensitive to bite. I have been back to the endodontist that did it three times, and went to another endodontist for another opinion. x-rays were taken everytime and all looked perfect. The last set of xrays was taken 2 days ago and again were perfect. My question is could my sinus issues be related to this root canal?

My best friends teeth are in need of dental care and she doesnt' have good credit or dental insurance. I know that hospitals care for people with no money on t.v. all the time, but what does someone like her do? She isn't in pain with them, but she is about to lose 2 of her teeth if something isn't done soon and she is so sad and I am sad for her. Please help!! We live in the Houston area.

Hi, I know your probably thinking man this girl is asking how to get rid of bad breath, man she doesn't brush her teeth, Well I Do!! I take good care of my teeth but I still seem to have discoloration and bad breath, is it because of what I eat, and how do I fix this?

I have to have between 2-4 permanent teeth removed, and I've been putting it off for years! I just can't stand the thought of all the pulling and pushing and cutting and the pain! I don't know what to do! Can someone give me an honest answer about how it feels to have permanent teeth removed???

I just had the first session of my root canal done and I only have a very fragile plastic piece covering it for the next two weeks. I was told to only eat soft food and I can't think of anything but applesause and icecream.

Yeasterday I had some dental work done and I had some strange reactions (new to me anyway). Pounding heart, extreme nervousness, fight or flight kinds of things. Is this common?

Next week I am getting 4 wisdoms out and one extra molar. I don't want to pony up the extra dough to be put under, so I'm just doing the regular procedure w/shots-numbing. Anyone with experience let me know how it went if they did the same.

I went to the dentist about a few months ago, the reason was beacause the dentist was suppose to remove my wisdom tooth. He supposevely took my wisdom tooth out. Now a few months latter, I have the same pain where I had the pain last time. Come to find out that my new dentist told me that I still have my wisdom tooth and that was never removed. Now I am thinking, what he took out of my mouth that I was in pain for almost 2 weeks and I was swollen. I need legal advise.

Not the spraying stuff - that's kind of disgusting. I have seen this parfume-like apparatus that you "puff" in your mouth. It does not spray liquid; it is just air-like. Smells madly good. What is it and where can I buy it?

My top front teeth are straight, but I'm wondering if they might shift in the direction of the missing tooth- I don't want to end up with one tooth in the middle!
I'm 21 years of age, and the upper tooth being removed is fifth from the right in a very crowded mouth. A few people have said teeth from the back only move foward, not the front moving to the side.?

My four year old fell and knocked her front teeth on the floor, it bled alittle, but now it is turning a black color. I am sure that means it is dead, and since it is a baby tooth do I need to take any actions other than just watching it for further problems?
