Do you just hold it still and move it from tooth to tooth, or do you use it like a regular toothbrush?

hi, i am on holiday near orlando, florida and wondering if it is possible to get invisalign braces there and whether i have to keep seeing the ortho to have them checked? (cheaper than uk?) also, is it possible and cheaper to get them with a dentist instead of ortho? thanks xx

I get canker sores pretty often, if I get one theres usually another one or two that pop up the same week somewhere else in my mouth -- I generally get them every other month... I'm 17 now I've been getting them my entire life. Does anyone else get them this often?

I have recently lacerated the tissue that connects my lower lip to my gums in a fight and am wondering why i cannot have anything acidic in my mouth? Is it because it will dissolve the stitches or that it will infect my laceration?

My husband had a few cavities as a teen and now he's in his 20's and feels like he's getting another. I just called the dentist's office to set up an appointment and she told me they would do an x-ray, the dentist would visit with him, and then they would schedule him for a SECOND appointment where the dentist would discuss x-ray results and the hygenist would do a cleaning.

What kind of a racket is this? Can't dentists find cavities without x-ray equipment? And why would my husband have to make a 2nd appointment just to get his results?

And then to just arbitrarily assume he will get his teeth cleaned. The nerve!

Can you go to a dentist and refuse the x-rays and just have him examine you and give you his observations?

It's not just the extra money and radiation exposure we have a problem with, it's feeling pressured to do certain procedures. Has anyone else experienced this? I had a similar encounter with my dentist which is why I tried this new one today for my husband

I had a root canal about 10 years ago on a tooth that has been acting up the last few months. It has been very sensitive to pressure, hot, cold, etc. It can't be a cavity because I had a root canal there. Anyone have/had the same problem or know what it could be? My dentist took x-rays and didn't see anything wrong but there is something wrong because the pain got so bad I had to go to the emergency room.

Seems very high to me, especially considering even a good dental insurance plan typically only picks up 1/2 of the overall cost. Wanted input from anyone "in the know."

I had a root canal on my front tooth 3 weeks ago following pain for about 3 weeks. I went back after 2 weeks for the temporary filling to be taken out but my dentist said he would have to put another temp filling in, presumably due to it still being infected. He flushed it out then put paper strip things up the canal this was very painful like it had hit the nerve (even though its not meant to be there) he said he was getting close to the bone thats why it hurt? I wouldnt think bone would hurt if touched?? anyway he put another temp filling on it and I have to go back again next week. Problem is iv still got a lot of pain in the tooth even though theres no nerve in it! It will be my 5th visit to the dentist for this problem next week and im sick of it! Its not like I can walk into another NHS dentist to get a second opinion, id have to pay and go private. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why im still in pain? He said i didnt need antibiotics.
