I have a gum boil (fistula) due to a failed root canal on a tooth that's a support for a front bridge. Had it treated by drilling through the tooth & cleaning out the infection, but it didn't take. I still have the fistula & it's worse. Endodontist said the tooth has a fracture so bacteria can still get in. I sat in her chair three times, paid a grand & the infection's
worse than before. Hurts now too. Always aware of it. Annoying and a fear of bone loss. And her & my dentist say the next step is to pull the tooth, lose the bridge & get implants? Like I got that kind of money.
Needless to say I'm not happy. Couldn't she have cleaned out the infection and sealed the fracture? My dentist sealed the temp filling the Endo put in and said nothing should get through. But if there's still infected space there? My feeling is the endodontist did a sloppy job and missed all the infection. Am I wrong in thinking that? Can I try again to get the infection removed? Any other alternatives?

I guess it's TMJ. After my wisdom tooth extraction, my jaw began cracking when I open my mouth. there's no pain involved, simply a bothersom cracking. Is there anything I can do? I don't grind my teeth at night so a mouth piece seems pointless. any ideas? Or is it not even TMJ? Does there need to be pain for it to be TMJ?

My dentist wants me to book an appointment with a hygienist but all they so is a scale and polish, I don't think it's worth £40. Does it have actual medical benefits or is it just a fancy tooth clean?

2 Years ago I had a cavity with an existing filling, my dentist wanted to do a root canal and I told him I didn't want one "just pull it" My teeth break when I have had them in the past. Well, he did the root canal any way, during the procedure he broke off a tool in my mouth and left it in there ( in a root that was curled), and tooth broke and had to be cut in 4 pieces to be removed.Now I am having swelling and pain and have a very hard lump in the roof of my mouth. Do I go back to the same dentist and make him fix the problem? He has a very good reputation, and said if I had any problems with it he would make it right...Just don't know what to do.

Im 17 and today had my tooth out, its the main one you use to chew, I have to go back next week and have the exact same tooth pulled out but on the other side of my mouth.. the dentist said it was decayed. I was kind of shocked as I dont eat much sugary food but when he took the tooth out I could see what he was talking about.

my mouth is numbed at the moment.. kinda waiting for the pain to start now. but my main concern is going through the rest of my life with two gaps at either side of my mouth and chewing using my gum.. is there anyway the teeth will grow back?

I'm 31 years old and my teeth are in terrible condition. I have so many cavities and abcesses, but we can't afford dental insurance or to go to the dentist. Through the years I have had one tooth at a time pulled, but I can rarely afford even that. My husband makes just enough over the level for Medicaid. I feel so ashamed and embarrassed about my mouth, and I am so worried about infections and heart related issues. My top row is the worst...what can I ever do to get help for my mouth?

Ok, I have been taking advil and switch to motrin for past two months. Motrin is ibuprofen 200mg. I take ATLEAST 15 pills a day!! I have major tooth pain, mostly likely because of loose filling,tooth decay etc. It is just unbearable!! My swollen neck glands and CONSTANT migraines & ear pain...HORRIBLE..if I don't take this much medication, I would just tear up and pain is unbearable..I just simply can't afford dental right now..I am a broke college student at age 21!

Question is, since I am popping so much pills for pain..for two months now..thats about almost 500 pills! Usually a bottle would last quite some time for lot of people..but would anything bad happen? besides maybe my liver messing up..I don't think I can overdoes..seems like I have become immune to pills..since I take so much on a regular and I have to take more and more for it to work..poppin 3 pills at one time only last for no longer than two hrs..if I am lucky..yes i know this is serious..professional info on this?
