Gum inflammation can occur due to various factors such as plaque buildup, hormonal changes, or sensitivity to certain foods. The redness and white patches might indicate irritation or an early stage of gum disease. To address this, maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly, and consider using an antimicrobial mouthwash. If symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend seeing a dentist for a thorough evaluation and professional cleaning.

Good evening mam Naku teeth దంతం దగ్గర పన్ను పుచ్చు పోయింది. దాని పక్కన చిన్న గడ్డలా వచ్చింది దానికి కారణాలు ఏమిటి? Doctor garu

The chances are you have a cavity. A cavity is when the germs in our mouth are eating sugars and making holes in the teeth. Infection can be the reason for the swollen gums that are next to the tooth. For this: brush your teeth properly, avoid sugary snacks, and visit a dentist for treatment.

Can her teeth become white again and having good breath..? She had canker sores and bleeding gums for the last 4 days...the canker sore are gone.now she is still recovering from it although she is having difficult to eat solid food
Female | 1
Bleeding gums and canker sores may be due to poor oral hygiene, stress, or vitamin deficiencies. To get her teeth white again and have good breath, she should try gentle brushing with fluoride toothpaste, floss every day; and rinse her mouth with salt water. For now, spicy or acidic foods should be avoided; however, if this persists then she should see a dentist.

I am getting pain on my tooth one side only I don't why it's happening
Female | 30
Experiencing tooth pain on one side could be due to reasons like tooth decay, gum disease, teeth grinding, dental infections, sinus issues, tooth fractures, recent dental work, or nerve sensitivity. Consult a dentist who can diagnose your condition accurately.

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.
Female | 25
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.

Female | 24
To have a very small amount of blood mixed in your saliva during most of the days is very alarming. One must see a dentist because this could be the result of gum disease or a mouth infection. It is advisable to have dentist appointments.

Gums feels like its cut and irrated hurts alot what can i do?
Female | 19
Your gums feel sore, irritated like they're cut. That could mean gingivitis - inflamed gums. Poor brushing or flossing often causes this condition. To ease that gum discomfort, brush twice daily with gentle strokes. Floss meticulously every single day. Rinse frequently with warm saltwater. And visit your dentist promptly for a gum check-up.

Medicine for tooth infection
Female | 26
In the event of a tooth infection, quick medical care is mandatory, since it is apt to have a high level of pain. A dentist is the one who should visit when she/he has a toothache. The most frequently encountered treatment for this kind of infection is an antibiotic and OTC pain relievers are given for pain relieving.

My teeth are yellow and hole in the front teeth its not cavity
Female | 18
You are likely suffering from a condition called enamel erosion. Enamel is the tough outer layer of your teeth that can wear away because of acidic foods, drinks, or brushing too hard. One symptom is yellowing and the holes forming in your teeth. To control further degradation, you can use a soft-bristled brush and reduce the consumption of sugary and acidic foods. You can speak to a dentist for further guidance.

I a 18 year old female and I want to have braces in my tooth ... I have improper tooth I want to straight them
Female | 18
Malpositioned teeth can lead to problems such as difficulty in chewing and talking. It is the result of genetic factors or the acquisition of certain habits like sucking thumb. 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.
