After jaw surgery when can i chew?
Answered on 9th Sept '24
Giving your jaw some time to heal after jaw surgery is crucial to chewing. Typically, you can start chewing soft foods such as mashed potatoes or soup about six weeks after surgery. Chewing too early can cause you to experience pain and cause your injury to heal slowly. So, be patient and follow your dentist's advice on when you can safely resume chewing.

My sister is suffering from significant swelling in her upper lip after having a high body temperature and experiencing a spasm in her right shoulder three days ago. She underwent a CRP test, and the result was 39. The doctor prescribed her antibiotics due to the presence of inflammation. However, is it normal for the lip to swell because of the inflammation or fever? It is worth noting that she often has dental issues and frequent tooth pain.
Answered on 10th Sept '24
Good thing your sister did a CRP test which indicated inflammation. This may explain the swelling of the upper lip. Inflammation and shoulder spasms could indicate an infection or dental problem. Tooth pain may sometimes cause swelling in the neighboring areas. Antibiotics are beneficial in the case of inflammation. Tell her to visit a dentist for proper treatment.

It can be a hard time for one to have teeth that are not in shape. However, braces are a good treatment for this problem. Crooked teeth may be a cause of issues while eating and brushing. Braces are like small assistants who help move your teeth into a more appropriate position.

You have a mouth sore, called an ulcer, on the top part. It comes from stress, sharp food injury, or some foods too. To feel better, rinse with warm salt water many times daily - it reduces swelling and soothes pain. Don't eat rough or spicy foods, those irritate the sore more. If it doesn't heal soon or you get extra sores, definitely see a dentist to check it carefully.

How long does a root canal last without a crown?
Answered on 23rd May '24
4 Thus, the duration of root canal without crown may differ but it is usually not considered a good idea to keep the tooth cavity open for long periods. The tooth after a root canal treatment becomes more brittle and is prone to fracture. A crown offers protection to the tooth against damages over time and helps in avoiding complications or other dental procedures. Dentists usually advice for placement of a crown immediately after the root canal treatment to maintain the structural integrity of that tooth and avoid problems in future. However, individual situations may vary; thus it is important to follow your dentist’s unique advice for perfect oral health.
