okkk well- since i got a redicilous answer before about how im "going to die" i decided to be more spacific.
I got my wisdom tooth gut pulled three years ago
a chipped my back left molar bc of tooth decay- i got it filled over the summer. a month later my gum where my wisdome tooth used to be swelled up (let me keep in mind that the tooth that got chipped doesnt hurt at all- i pushed on it wiggeled it-nothing.) the swelling went away, it came back again a few months later- went away again. and it came back yesterday morning.. only a little worse. the only thing that these three times have in commin is that when it swelles- i usually have a cold & a soar throat. (no glands, just a mild cold)... and i dont have a temperature.. Any ideas other then " YOUR GOING TO DIE!" ??

My teeth have always been sensitive. The past month, however, it has been very sharp and quite painful with hot or cold of any kind (eating food is OK). I have used Sensodyne the past two weeks, and it has helped a little, but not a lot.

I went to the dentist, and got a full exam. No cavities, teeth look very healthy and gums are perfect, he said. He is a very good dentist but, when asked what could be done he had no solutions.

What can I do? I hate this feeling. It is on the back 3 teeth on the bottom of the right side of my mouth. I am starting to feel hopeless.

I have to get the two bottom ones and a top one. I am just going back to school and was wondering how long it take to heal. And how long it will hurt for. I am scared of the dentist to beging with so he is sending me to a surgeon to be put to sleep while he pulls them. They don't hurt yet, but he says that in time they will, and that I need them out. Please help! LOL

I know I can find these online but I always get so many different answers. I am hoping someone here can really help me - especially if there's a dentist somewhere online here :)!
1. I know I have to go to college for 4 years but do I have to go 2 or 4 years afterwards. I don't know if I want to study that long!
2. How much would I get paid in my FIRST year? I know that you get paid more the longer you stay!
4. What classes would I have to take in college? Please list all. Like a Math, a history, a foreign language, a biology. I already have some high school college dual credits that will help me.
5. I can't decide whether I want to be a HIGH SCHOOL HISTORY TEACHER or a DENTIST? ... Can you help me?
6. If I took Biology, Chemistry, and PHysics during high school - & next year my senior year I'm talking FORENSICS AND ZOOLOGY (although I should have taken AP Biology) would that be an type of preparation for me?
B/c I'm having alot of history classes to help decide if that's my major?!

I just had braces off and now have a gumshield brace to wear at night. I was wondering if anybody knew where to buy a good cleaner for it from a shop, instead of having to back to the orthadontist when i run out.

I'm having wisdom teeth extraction stitches removed tomorrow. Will this make my mouth feel better and lessen the pain?

We went to the dentist today and he says that she has some tooth decay> I am horrified. He says that we obviously brush them well as there is no placue (we still clean them twice a day for her) He says that it is probably down to diet, but she only has sweets once a week, and eats really healthly loads of fruit and veg, she does drink squash but not very strong I know she should drink water but she does not like it and I cannot force her to drink it. ( she has had lots of urinary tract problems in the past so it is important that she drinks lots)

What am I to do,I cannot bear the thought of her having to have fillings at such a young age.

Let me tell you my story. I am 17, and will be turning 18 in April. The orthodontist said I need to get braces, and I am not sure if I should. He said I need them for two reasons - 1. My teeth hit evenly and I am very close to having an underbite but for now its just even. 2. I speak with a slight lisp sometimes and its kind of hard for me to pronounce some things, although everyone I know says its extremely far from noticeable.

Anyways I don't know if I should get them. I feel like if i get them now I will have two of my most important years of my life with braces when I probably dont NEED them, but if I don't get them I will always know how I could have had perfect teeth and it will bother me forever.

What should I do?

Also- how much of a pain in the butt are braces? And do girls really care if a guy has braces? Does it take away from attractiveness that much?
