Effective Remedies for Dark Gums
Dark pigmentation on mouth gums
Dentist
Answered on 2nd Aug '24
Dark spots show up on gums sometimes. They're often no big deal, caused by regular things – smoking, certain medicine, extra iron perhaps. Or it may signal a condition called oral melanin pigmentation. But no need for undue worry. Simply get checked by a dentist to confirm everything is well, and obtain proper guidance.

Female | 24
Your wisdom tooth is giving you some discomfort. Sideways growing wisdom teeth can cause problems like inflammation, pain, and chewing challenges. Sometimes it has progressed even infecting your tonsils. Opting for extraction is often the most effective way to solve the problem. Visit a dentist to get it extracted.

Hi my father has a severe problem of aphthous ulcer. It first happened in 2016. The condition was so bad that we had to admit him to the hospital. After that he was fine. But in last 6 months it repeated two times. We were aware of the condition so he got the treatment early. But my question is why it is happening again and again? We visited a doctor at Bayrampasa but were not satisfied. Can you suggest a good doctor in Istanbul who handles this type of patient earlier?
Apthous ulcer is mainly due to stress ;constipation and vitamin b complex deficiency. The following problems should be addressed and by its treatment. Vitamin n b complex Syrup 15 ml minimum for a period of one month one time daily. Mucopain gel thrice daily before having on ulcer site or as prescribed by Dentist.

I have a wisdom tooth coming up , my whole teeth hurts , I have pains , what should I do
Female | 28
Your wisdom tooth seems to be causing you some problems. When a wisdom tooth tries to come through but does not have enough space to do so, it can be painful. The pain might also affect your other teeth nearby. Try rinsing your mouth with warm salt water - this can help to reduce the pain and swelling. You may want to take over-the-counter painkillers such as ibuprofen too. If the pain does not go away or gets worse, then it is best if you see a dentist as soon as possible.

I have a mouth sore and it been a 2 weeks no sign of improvement, why?
Male | 21
If your mouth sore has been persistent for more than 2 weeks without shows of improvement, it is good to consult a dentist. A number of ailments, including infections, allergies, or autoimmune diseases for example can also lead to oral sores. The specialist can diagnose correctly and prescribe an appropriate therapy for your disease.

What is dental implantology?
Female | 25
Dental implantology involves placing artificial teeth into the jawbone to replace lost teeth. A dental implant acts as a new root, supporting a replacement tooth that functions like a natural one. Common signs that you might need a dental implant include pain while chewing or speaking, gaps between teeth, or jawbone shrinkage. These implants can restore your smile and improve your ability to eat and talk comfortably.

Hi can braces help me to align my teeth? Or are there other options too? See I am a college girl. My teeth are not properly set. I wanted to fix it. But also I have seen one of my cousins had to wear the braces for quite a long time and it is very difficult sometimes to eat. So is there any other way to align the teeth? To whom should I consult? I am from Silivri.
Female | 23
yes braces can align your teeth. You have to consult an orthodontist. other ways of alignment of teeth are Invisalign or aligners and ceramic braces. if your teeth correction are moderate then aligners can help but if too much complex then only option is braces. You can go for self ligation braces which is much more comfortable

Female | 43
Bleeding from the mouth can be a sign of gum disease, which sickens your gums and splits them easily. Besides, injuries, ulcers, and even blood disorders can also lead to bleeding from the mouth. If this happens to you, find a dentist to help you figure out what is wrong and get the right treatment.

Teeth If the person in front of you gets a toothache then in what ways can you fix it?
Female | 20
Toothache can be caused by a variety of problems; these could be cavities, gum disease or infections. Symptoms usually consist of acute pain, sensitivity to hot or cold, and swelling. The easiest option to alleviate pain is to have good oral hygiene, which includes daily brushing and flossing. Rinsing with salt water may also help the patient to get the desired effect. Use of the pain relievers available over the counter can be one way of taming the discomfort. You can seek appropriate medical advice from dentist.

Can tooth decay be reversed?
Female | 39
The short answer is “no” but the long answer is “sort of.” Here’s why:
The earliest stage of tooth decay or a cavity is demineralized enamel. The outer layer of enamel becomes weak and soft, due to acids and plaque biofilm coming into contact with it on an extended basis.
Fortunately, demineralized enamel can — to an extent — be remineralized before a physical cavity (hole) ruptures through the surface.
What are some ways to help this happen?
- Improved hygiene and plaque removal on an everyday basis
- Protective dental sealants over deep grooves and fissures, which are someof the most cavity-prone surfaces
- Drinking fluoridated tap water throughout the day
- Supplementation with a prescription strength fluoride or mouthrinse, providedby your dentist
- Use of everyday oral hygiene products that contain fluoride
- Eating more fresh fruits and vegetables, sharp cheddar cheese, and fewerprocessed carbohydrates
- Eliminating acidic beverages and those that contain natural or artificial-sweeteners
The types of cells that make up your teeth do not re-grow or repair themselves after the tooth is fully developed.
Once a tooth has a physical cavity (opening or hole) inside of it, there is no feasible way to help the enamel grow back on your own. Instead, the cavity will gradually worsen, due to the bacterial infection inside of the tooth structure.
Ideally, you would want to treat the cavity as soon as it’s diagnosed and while it’s as small as possible. When you do, your dentist can place a minimally invasive filling and preserve as much healthy tooth structure as possible.
But untreated cavities will expand to the point that they require larger fillings. Or worse, they will reach into the nerve chamber and create an abscess. What could have initially been treated with a modest restoration now becomes a situation requiring a root canal and a crown
