Baby teeth decay is common yet still require a physician’s opinion. In case the decay is bad and it is affecting the back teeth, it is wiser to see a dentist. The dentist may recommend treatments that include fillings, crowns, or in some cases, extracting the teeth. Early treatment is the priority here, if not, it may lead to the development of painful and infectious issues.

Answered on 3rd Sept '24

You may have a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder. This can result in difficulty in opening your mouth widely. It may be caused by factors like stress, teeth grinding, or arthritis. To begin with, you can try the warmer compresses over your jaw and softer foods. Besides, squeezable chewing gum and wide yawns are things to avoid. If it doesn't improve, it's best to see a dentist.

Braces are a well-known method for fixing such problems. They slowly shift your teeth to the desired position. Do not be afraid, as many teenagers your age wear braces, and is completely normal. But, you can visit an orthodontist to learn more about it.

I am 39 urs old. I have root canal tomorrow. I am asked to take 2 tablets one is betmax 509 and another is metrogyl er . I could see both are antibiotics. So I have a doubt that is it required to take 2 antibiotics?

Answered on 13th June '24

It’s common if you’re confused about taking two antibiotics before a root canal. Betmax 509 and Metrogyl ER are antibiotics that fight against infection. To ensure all the infection is gone, your dentist might have prescribed them both. Take both of them as directed which will help you not to get any complications after the process. Follow what your dentist told you and in case of any questions ask him or her.

Asked for Male, 24

I am having a severe tooth ache. I had an accident October 2022 and I broke some of my teeth of which I did composite build up that time. since that time I have always been having pains per time which I will buy paracetamol and the pains will be relieved. but since on Saturday, I have been taking paracetamol with pain relief and the pain still persist

Answered on 6th June '24

It sounds like you have been experiencing persistent tooth pain since the accident. The composite build-up may not be holding up well, leading to nerve irritation causing the pain. It is essential to visit a dentist to assess the condition of the teeth and the composite build-up. In the meantime, avoid chewing on that side and stick to soft foods. Apply a cold compress on the outside of the cheek to help relieve pain temporarily.

What is the best age to start orthodontic treatment?

Answered on 9th July '24

The optimal age to begin orthodontic treatment is typically 7 to 9 years old. This is because at this time children have a combination of adult and baby teeth, making it easier to fix problems like crowding or an improper bite. Early intervention can prevent more severe issues as they get older. If your child has irregular teeth, difficulty biting or chewing food, or breathes through their mouth regularly, then seeing an orthodontist for assessment would be wise.

Answered on 27th May '24

It looks like you may have a tooth infection. This could be why you’re in pain. Bacteria can cause tooth infections when they enter a cavity or crack in the tooth. If the gum is swollen too, it might mean that there is an infection. The dentist will have to clean out your tooth to get rid of this problem and may also give you some antibiotics.

Asked for Female, 19

I am 19 year old female and I my gums are becoming quite soft and aching since 3,4 days and I have ulcers in my thorat and tongue...suggest me what to do?

Answered on 12th June '24

You could have gingivitis. When your gums are red, swollen and bleed easily it is called gingivitis. Plaque builds up on the teeth and causes this. The sores on your throat and tongue may be due to infection. To relieve symptoms make sure that you brush and floss gently but often; use mild antiseptic mouthwash as well. Drink lots of water too so that spicy or acidic food does not irritate the mouth any further. Visit a dentist if there is still no change in the condition.
