After jaw surgery when can i chew?
Answered on 9th Sept '24
After jaw surgery, it’s recommended to wait at least 6-8 weeks before resuming chewing solid foods. This allows your jaw to heal properly and minimizes the risk of complications. However, recovery times can vary based on individual factors, so it's crucial to follow your surgeon’s specific instructions. For personalized advice, consult your dentist.

black and white patch inside mouth developing and shapes like a hole
Answered on 4th Sept '24
The white and black patch in your mouth that looks like a hole is scary. A possible reason could be a condition known as oral thrush. Usually, oral thrush will seem like white patches that sometimes can change to black color. This is due to the proliferation of a fungus in your mouth. It can come about if you have a weak immune system or are taking some medications. To treat it, you may require antifungal drugs that a dentist can prescribe for you.

My mother is a 50 year old women and she have a extreme teeth pain and her almost all teeths are fall . Want to fix permanent another teeths what will be the cost of treatment and how much time it will take
Answered on 3rd Sept '24
This could be the case for serious gum disease or decay, which prompts the teeth to loosen and fall out. The final solution would be dental implants which are like the artificial teeth which are fixed in the jawbone. The cost of treatment varies, but generally, it can be more than thousands of dollars for a single implant. The whole procedure can be completed over several months as it entails a lot of steps such as surgery and the time required to heal.

How do clear aligners compare to traditional braces in terms of effectiveness and treatment duration?
Answered on 17th July '24
Both of them can be positive in the alignment of teeth but clear aligners are not so visible and are more comfortable to clean and we don't need to worry about their color being yellow. The use of clear aligners may develop the results in a short period, but it is also the one that is least serious in teeth misalignment which means your treatment would be a little bit brief. You should visit a dentist who will help you come to the final decision as to which method is the most suitable for you.

Mera naam Abhi hai mai 2 saal se gutka khata hu aur ab mai kuch bhi teekha nahi kha pata kyuki mere galfade chhil gye hai andar se isliye khana bhi nahi khaya jata iska kya ilaj hai?
Answered on 29th May '24
Mucositis is when the inside of your mouth (oral mucosa) peels off and makes it hard for you to eat spicy things or anything sharp. To fix this, the number one thing is to stop using gutka. Drinking lots of water and using mouth rinses may also help. However, you should make sure to go to the dentist so they can check it out further and give you some solution for it so that it doesn’t turn into anything worse.
Asked for Female, 23
Iam bleeding continuously and it’s not stopping..is it because I have an implant?
Answered on 23rd May '24
If somebody keeps bleeding and it seems to be because of the implant, the reasons are to be looked for. The body doesn't operate properly for the first few months after the introduction of the implant; hence, it can result in unpredictable bleeding. The other cause is an inflammation or an injury just near the site of the implant. To find out the exact reason for the ailment and get the right treatment, a patient needs to consult a dentist.

A sore on your tongue is common when smoking cigarettes. The smoke irritates the delicate mouth tissues, causing painful spots. Spicy, hot foods irritate further; try rinsing with warm saltwater. If pain persists beyond a few days, it's wise to consult a dentist for examination.

My mouth under pimple what is pimple name or reason
Answered on 6th Aug '24
A pimple inside your mouth is called a mucocele. This condition develops when a tiny salivary gland becomes blocked. You may notice a fluid-filled bump on the soft tissue. In some instances, it can rupture spontaneously. However, avoid attempting to pick or pop it yourself. More often than not, a mucocele will resolve independently without intervention. If the issue persists, it's advisable to consult a dentist for a professional evaluation.

Answered on 1st Aug '24
You've dealt with mouth ulcer discomfort for 3 months. Bothersome, slow-healing, yet mostly harmless - cancer rarely causes them. However, diabetes might delay healing. Spicy foods irritate, so try soft options. Maintain oral hygiene. If no improvement, ask your dentist about treatments.

How to manage discomfort during the healing process after dental extraction?
Answered on 23rd May '24
Cold compresses are an effective way to deal with the discomfort that comes along with healing after a dental extraction. Apply a cold compress to the affected area for 10-20 minutes every hour for the first 24-48 hours. Next, put a warm compress in place. Make an effort to stay away from any solid food and use hot beverages, instead, on the first days go for softer foods and cold drinks. If the pain doesn’t go away or gets worse, do not hesitate and visit your dentist or oral surgeon immediately.

Answered on 23rd May '24
In most cases, lymph nodes might swell after the tooth extraction, maybe if there is an infection present. But you will have to go to the doctor if the swelling lasts longer than a few days.

Can a hyperthyroid patient ever get a Dental Implant?
Answered on 23rd May '24
Potentially, hyperthyroidism – a condition due to an overactive thyroid gland may affect dental implant success. Bone metabolism and density are also essential factors for the success of dental implants, but thyroid imbalances can affect them. People suffering from hyperthyroidism can have faster bone turnover, which may affect the way implants integrate into the jawbone. You need to tell your dentist and oral surgeon about the condition of thyroid, before going under dental implant operation. To evaluate your overall health status and manage any risk factors, collaboration between the dental practitioners and medical professionals is crucial to ensure that dental implant procedures in hyperthyroidism individuals have optimal outcomes. Thre are other treatments like stem cell also use for dental implants.
