Dental - February 2007

I am embarrassed to tell this But!! I need some teeth. I haven"t a income that will alow me to go to a dentist to have them replaced. Thats been true for over 30 years. The dentures that i now have are too big and the teeth are to small. Upperers only!! The bottom I dont have. So, needless to say I look 30 yeatrs older than I am. Does anyone know of a ligitimate way to help me?

I also would like input from those having 1st hand experience, good and bad--as I am considering the procedure because of the recent loss of 3 teeth, side by side; (upper, "medium front").

Also, I have had dental work in Mexico with excellent results, and am willing to do it again; any "war stories" re: Mexico??

I'm retired and cannot afford US prices.

I'm 30 and have had 3 root canals! I've always received proper dental care. I just feel doomed! So, one of my teeth has started hurting and I just fear that Root Canal #4 has come! Is there any hope?

I just got my wisdom teeth out on thursday. How long does it take for the stiches to disolve? And since I've got them out i've been having dissy spells, is that normal? I feel like my eyes are going cross eyed! The only thing i'm on is antibiotic to prevent infection.

Near my top molars ( where the wisdom teeth used to be) the gums are white and puffy looking. I don't know if it used to look like this but does this sound normal?

I had a root canal done Wednesday. I'm in more pain now then I was before the root canal was done. I've never had a root canal before, so I'm not sure if this is normal. I'm still very swollen and having to take 800 ibuprofen every 6 hours to keep the swelling under control. I'm also on vicodin. With both, I can barely chew on the opposite side of my mouth, and even closing my mouth all the way hurts because my teeth touch on the side that had the root canal.
If there are any dentists out there --- is this normal?
Please tell me how many days your recovery took after your root canal?

When white toothpaste comes out with red and blue stripes why don't all the colours get mixed up inside the tube? What's inside the tube? Are there separate sections containing different coloured toothpaste?

Here's the deal, I have an underbite, "monkey mouth" as it was describe. My upper palate is narrow and my bottom jaw is a little pronounced. But since i had my braces taken off after three years my teeth were perfectly straight as can be. Is that good?

I am happy with my new mouth, but should I have had the surgery? I didn't have a good feeling going into it. Do people have underbites?

When I was in 8th grade I only had 11 teeth left and they wern't that great so my mom and me decided to just get them all pulled out. They needed work and it was gonna cost alot,and it was easier to just have them pulled. I'm 16 now and still don't have teeth. How long can I go toothless before I probly won't be able to wear false teeth if I decide to get a set someday?

I have a lot of pain coming from my tooth. One of my fillings fell out and now I feel that my nerve is exposed therefore I feel a lot of pain. I'm also afraid I'm going to need a root canal but I won't be able to see my dentist for the next few days. After doing a little research I found that clove oil is helpful in easing the pain but the problem is that I'm not sure how to use it. Is it harmful if a tiny amount is swallowed? Is it safe to apply clove oil next to the nerve? I would appreciate answers from anybody who is familiar with this painful problem. Thanks!
