Dental - December 2006

My little brother chipped 3 of his teeth, one of which was his front tooth. How serious are these injuries? And how can they be repaired? And what's the estimate cost?

I just got a "snap on smile" orthodic from my cosmetic dentist for my bottom teeth (I got 8 veneers on the top but could not afford the bottom too). Anyway, my question is did yours make your teeth sore at first?

Please help. I'm a 14 y.o. boy in NYC who has all of his adult teeth in. Sometimes I don't brush my teeth in the morning or at night, and those days I simply don't brush. Now my teeth are loose and I'm afraid that they're going to fall out! This can't be happening! Brushing my teeth now won't help, so what will? Is there any way I can stop them from falling out? Or will routine brushing every day keep them from falling out? They're ALREADY LOOSE AND I'M ONLY 14! Please help me. They can't fall out already!

HELP!

i have always looked after my teeth, go to the dentist every 6months, cleaned them twice a day but now i have a cracked tooth which is giving me pain. My dentist has drilled and refilled to see if it would hold but it needs to come out. He can't fit me in till Tuesday next and paracetamol are the only meds i can take, which isn't really helping. Any ideas of something to rub on the gum or a mouth wash solution. Thanks in advance.

I brush my tongue 1-2 a day, with a regular toothbrush. I do it for about 1-2 minutes, I'm not being too gentle. Is this going to damage my taste buds?

My daughter is 8 years old and I took her to the dentist yesterday for a check up, it's been a year since she was last there, and the dentist says she has 4 cavities. She's never had any before, and I don't let her eat much sugar, I feel like a terrible mother now that she has cavities! He says she needs to have them filled soon because they're quite bad, but she's never complained of any pain in her teeth before. He said he could do the fillings 2 at a time depending on how she is, but she's absolutely terrified. Is it better to get them done one at a time or get it over with as quickly as possible? And is there anything I can do to make her less scared about it all?

I'm sure things have improved and changed drastically, If you are getting a filling do you still get the needle in your mouth? What's new do they still use drills etc. (big chicken!)

Bleeding has already stopped but everytime I wake up, I see blood in my first spit in the morning. Aside from that I am seeing chunks of blood whenever I gargle. I see no blood in my saliva during the day but just the same, when I wake up, there is blood again. My dentist told me that I probably bump my wound with my upper tooth. I don't feel pain so she said it's nothing to worry about. I am concerned, however, that it might not heal anymore. I was hoping I get more explanation from here...

He gets liquids, motrin and tylenol. What else can I give him for the pain? I feel bad cause he is hurting so bad. He wont eat anything except yogurt and wont drink anything except water. He is only 3 years old and I dont want him to get any sicker. The Dr.s just tell me to wait it out. That what I am doing is good enough. My poor son! I feel bad for him. Since I cant get any help from them is there someone who can????? What home remidies are there that realy work. I just want it to go away as soon as possible and I want his pain to go away soon too. I feel like crying everytime he does!! Can someone please help?? Thank you!!
