Teeth infection pain solution

Male | 45

Teeth suffering from infection with consequent pain may also exhibit swelling, redness, and bad taste in the mouth. This is induced due to the bacteria that invade the cavities or can slip through a fractured tooth. To control the pain, rinse your mouth with warm salt water and take over-the-counter pain relievers before you help your doctor. Properly, you should see a dentist to treat the infection. It would be best if you brush and floss regularly to prevent future infections.

I have a hole in my right upper molar with a large brow hole. The tooth has hurt for a while.

Female | 18

It seems you are suffering from a toothache that is leading to a cavity, which is a very frequent dental problem. This issue is caused by the decay of a tooth that is mainly due to bacteria. Symptoms like pain are the signals that might indicate the condition needs attention. Then the dentist will identify the area of decay and manage it with a filling or, in case of severe damage, a root canal. Along with taking care of the teeth by brushing and flossing daily, oral hygiene can help you stay healthy and away from other problems. Therefore, the treatment by a doctor will help you get the best way to your full recovery and also make your tooth comfortable to live with.

Hi..doc..i have this white and sour taste toungue for few months..scrap it off the next day it cones back..is it due to smoking and alcohol user..or could it be too much consume caffeine..or is it GERD..pls help

Male | 52

I understand that you may be dealing with a condition known as oral thrush. This could be a result of smoking or heavy drinking, too much caffeine, or even GERD. Common signs and symptoms include having a white coat on your tongue that tastes sour which always returns despite brushing. To mitigate this problem one should cut down on cigarettes, alcohol intake and caffeine consumption. It's best to see a dentist or an ENT specialist to get a proper diagnosis and treatment.

Last month january i got cavity infection with swollen face jaw and lymph node..... i got extracted my teeth but lymph node swollen is still there

Female | 28

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. I suggest you consult a maxillofacial surgeon for a detailed investigation and treatment of your swollen lymph node.

Female | 45

In particular, the absence of teeth leads to difficulties in consuming specific foods and can impoverish nutritional status. But through the implementation of dentures numerous individuals keep a balanced diet. Users are advised to schedule consultations with both their dentist and a nutrition expert so as come up with an appropriate diet plan. In case you feel insecure about your oral health, make sure to visit a prosthodontic dentist.

My dental is very painful and cavities problem,this problem what is solution?

Female | 36

Your condition may have resulted in dental caries, which in turn causes intense dental pain. Dental caries are the product of the bacteria in the mouth that make holes in the teeth. This can happen if you consume sugary substances excessively. You can mainly do this by brushing your teeth regularly twice a day and also regularly visiting the dentist as advised. The dentist can effectively treat dental caries using a filling to make your teeth strong.

Hi there, after I finish eating my breakfast; I usually go and brush my teeth. For the past 2 weeks whenever I finished brushing my teeth and gargle my mouth 3 times; it's making me gag. I am unsure as to why. Sometimes I even end up vomiting though only a light throw up. I am unsure if it's the tap water.

Male | 28

You've been undergoing a nasty consequence when gargling the oral solution after brushing your teeth. The gagging and vomiting could be caused either by the taste or texture of the tap water or even the toothpaste you're using. First, try switching to a gentler toothpaste and if still not effective, rinse your mouth with bottled water. If the problem is still there, it's better to consult your dentist.

Infection in teeth which is causing pain

Male | 14

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.
