About a month ago, I pushed the dentist to fill two cavities on two front teeth. The dentist did a lousy job. When he was finishing up, he drilled one filling too deep and made the filling extremely thin. Additionally, he drilled a small slice of gum off. Both hurt, so I went back on the following day. However, the dentist told me all was because my teeth were too sensitive and the conditions would improve after using desenstizing toothpaste.

However, the fillings are still sensitive on contact. and I also believe that the one where he drill my gum exposed root of the tooth.

What should I do? Thank you

My mom is considering have some dental implants put in. She suffers from really bad migraines and she's afraid that the implants could cause her migraines to get worse. She has talked to her dentist,oral surgeon,and neurologist and none of them seem to know if it will cause a problem. Has anyone out there had any experiance with this sort of thing? Are there any good websites out there were I can read more on the subject? Thank You!!

I'm not sure I'm using the best type of toothbrush; but, my mother told me dentists aren't allowed to reccommend one.

Would it be better to stick with one dentist? The dental school near me takes people on first come first serve basis and you cannot ask for the same person twice though you may actually be able to get the same person twice. I've started haveing pain, so my teeth are definately getting worse but I'm having trouble affording what the dentists charge just for consultations, let alone the actual work.

Hey, i am 22, and i already had 3 of my 4 wisdom tooth come out with no pain at all. now, my forth tooth is coming out and i am in a lot of pain. It seems though that the tooth is coming out straight. Is it right for me to just do nothing about it and survive the pain for a few days? or is the pain a signal that something is wrong? did you have lots of pain when it did come out right and not have it removed?

My main focus here is not to have it removed.
Thanks!

Does anybody know what causes gums to recede? I brush and floss and diet is good. Is there a mineral/vitamin supplement that might help?

I have been told this is good if you have very mild gingivitis?
Is this true ??

If not, will using salted water as a mouthwash cause any harm ?

I just started to bleach my teeth which means I can't have anything that may stain them i.e. coffee, tea, dark soda. The lack of caffine is killing me. What about energy drinks?
