I got my teeth cleaned about a week ago, but ever since then, the place in between several of my teeth have been THROBBING. Not just 'eh, pain' but real, jaw-clenching pain. This, after any tooth cleaning, has never happened, and I've been brushing my teeth twice a day. Even flossing. (which I usually don't) But the pain just won't go away. It hurts when I eat, sometimes drink, and just random parts of the day.

I don't know what to do!

I had them removed 4 days ago and I am still feeling very sore where the teeth used to be. When should I be able to take myself off the pain killers?

Thanks!

I have to get a wisdom tooth out next week, because its biting down on the inside of my cheek and is sore. I never got a tooth out before so I'm terrified of it. Also, I don't want to be put to sleep. I hate the idea of that because I like to be aware of my suroundings at all times. And some people have said that the dentist gives you some pain killers afterwards. Only...i have a problem when it comes to taking pills. I cant take them. Is there any chance you can get some sort of liquid medication instead? And will it hurt getting the tooth pulled?

Has anyone tried this? I am thinking about getting Invisaline to straighten my teeth a little. Does it work, and is the price worth it...or should I just do good old fashined braces for a while?

No matter how hard I try my dentist is totally failing at diagnosing my extremely painfull condition it is like toothache all day everyday. I have been like this for 2 years and it nearly drove me to suicide. I also need all of my wisdom teeth out but my dentist wont remove those either and when I ask him why, he cant tell me. What is going on?

My grandmother used to say they came from using too much salt, but I think she was just trying to get me to use less salt. But they are annoying, and take a long time to go away. I keep rubbing them against my teeth, especially the broken ones. They are sort of like pimples, but I can't squeeze them. What are they and what can I do to get rid of them and/or prevent new ones from forming?

saliva thing I was wondering whether has damage my teeth or not? I am now 14 and since then when I was six I tripped and fell on cement. My teeth went back and had to be pulled forward. So I was wondering cos I now at 14 have dents in two front teeth although you can't really see it you can feel it well I can. so is this cos due to the dentist pulling it forward or is it because I used to scrape my teeth. Any dentist out there help please?

Ok my last wisdom tooth is coming out and im only 17! Why? My friend is 21 and doesnt have 1! Now i actually have a few questions about it. 1 What age is normal to have them come out, or is there even a normal? 2 Does it have anything to do with how smart you are? 3 How old can you be to still get them? like 70's or 40's or whatever.
