My daughter has had braces for 2 years and now they want to brake her jaw to make her bite better? She is only 14 yrs. old.
Would you recomend it or not?

Ebay has a whitening kit that is sold to dentists. Its a bleaching tray kit and you wear it for fifteen to thirty minutes once a day. Its actually suprisingly cheap considering its a professional one, but they say its because they get it straight from the manufacturer. Do this ruin your teeth because of the high percentage of carbamide peroxide? or should it be fine?

Okay, I am pregnant and curious.... My step dad has not brushed his teeth in 20 years!!!!! Yeah... gross I know... but his teeth are pretty much just gone, black! I was wondering if this can kill him, or if he may get some disease which can be contagious to my baby. Also, when my baby comes, how can I tell him nicley not to kiss on my baby or feed him out of his bowl?

My dentist does excellent work but always wants his way and will NEVER listen to what his patients want. He recommends the most expensive things and won't listen when his patients tell him they can't afford it. He simply tells them to start saving their money, and then he walks away. He doesn't want to hear what you have to say about having financial difficulties or other debts to pay. Should they grin and bear it and go into further debt or look for a different dentist?

i have always believed that if you get and abcessed tooth you can most likely contract blood poison from it if you pulled the tooth while the infection is present is this true?? also i went to a dentist who was going to pull the tooth but was not going to do anything about he infection and when i was told all they were going to do is pull the tooth and nothing about the infection i got up out of the chair and walked out did i do the right thing?? i have since gone to another doctor and they have prescribed an antibiodic meds to help me get rid of the infection and then they are going to help me find another dentist. did i do right by walking out or was i in the wrong because i was told wrong about never having a tooth pulled while infection is present in the mouth around the abcessed tooth thnx i am trying to survive such pain from the pressure of the infection pocket i am in need of help thnx

Occasionally I have these yellow hard roundish things that come up from the back of my throat. When I squish them and smell it, it stinks really bad. What is this stuff and how can I treat it. Also does it affect the smell of my breath?

How do you deal with dental phobias? And is anyone else bothered by the numbness feeling you get after they get a shot in their mouth? If so, have you found a way to deal with feeling odd when numb?
