When fillings fade they change in color.
They ultimately start to yellow as they get older and also take up food stains.
The quality of your smile is affected when these teeth change their color and develop in teeth like the molars.
Your smile, however, starts to draw unwanted attention when discolored bonding is present on the front of an anterior tooth, such as a central or lateral incisor.
Unfortunately, unlike actual teeth, composite bonding cannot be whitened.
The bonding must be taken out in order to eliminate the color from it.
However, you should complete your dental procedure in the following order if you intend to whiten the rest of your teeth as well.

Temporary numbness can occur with topical anesthetics, but persistent tingling or loss of sensation might require further evaluation. While these sensations can be distressing, they often resolve over time. Stress and anxiety can also contribute to feelings of discomfort and even hair loss. I recommend consulting your healthcare provider again to discuss these symptoms in detail and explore appropriate treatments. Prioritize your well-being, and don’t hesitate to seek support for relief and reassurance.

My mouth under pimple what is pimple name or reason

Male | 22

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.

Sir I feel weak and I done my root canal rct in last 1 month and I lose my 2kg weight in last 8month and I fear that I have some desesase which can't make me focus on studies

Male | 16

It's understandable to feel concerned about your body. Weakness and weight loss can sometimes be linked to various factors such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, or even recovery from dental treatments. Focus on maintaining a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, and ensure you stay hydrated. Gentle exercise can also boost energy levels. However, it’s important to consult a dentist for an accurate assessment and personalized advice.

A month ago, I had a filling done. Only after I eat do I begin to experience any discomfort. Food becomes jammed up in the teeth filling area. It's as if there's a infection going around. What is the best treatment for removing the infection?

local generalised xray is needed for that particular tooth. if filling has not helped the pain, then maybe a RCT will be required.can comment on it only after seeing the x-ray.

Teeth pain so teeth filling which should do that will be better

Female | 21

Teeth discomfort can arise from various causes, including cavities, gum disease, or sensitivity. Common signs include sharp pain while chewing, sensitivity to hot or cold foods, or aching gums. Addressing these issues often involves dental fillings, which help restore tooth integrity and alleviate pain. It's vital to maintain good oral hygiene and visit your dentist regularly for check-ups. If the pain persists or worsens, I recommend scheduling an appointment with a dentist for a thorough examination and tailored treatment. They will guide you to the best options for relief and long-term dental health.

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
