silver diamine fluoride can be used but it stains the tooth. so not recommended. older generation can still use it, those who cannot afford costly dental treatment 
you can switch to strontium based tooth pastes

what is jaw claudication?

What is jaw claudication?

Dr. Anu Daber

Dr. Anu Daber

Rheumatologist

Answered on 23rd May '24

Jaw claudication is an often unrecognized sign of giant cell arteritis. The significance of this symptom has been underemphasized in the dental literature. Dentists should consider jaw claudication when making the differential diagnosis of jaw pain, especially in the elderly patient. Early diagnosis and treatment of giant cell arteritis may help save a patient

Answered on 23rd May '24

  1. It depends on the quality of the braces, the type of braces and the amount of force applied.
  2. Usually, the pain only lasts for the first several days.
  3. Once you get used to the regular usage, you'll get used to it.

How to whiten fillings on front teeth?

S

Shruti Samant

Member of team ClinicSpots.

Answered on 23rd May '24

  1. When fillings fade they change in color.
  2. They ultimately start to yellow as they get older and also take up food stains.
  3. The quality of your smile is affected when these teeth change their color and develop in teeth like the molars. 
  4. 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.
  5. Unfortunately, unlike actual teeth, composite bonding cannot be whitened. 
  6. The bonding must be taken out in order to eliminate the color from it.
  7. However, you should complete your dental procedure in the following order if you intend to whiten the rest of your teeth as well.

Can wisdom tooth cause ear pain?

S

Shruti Samant

Member of team ClinicSpots.

Answered on 23rd May '24

Yes, wisdom teeth can cause ear pain. This is caused by the tooth being blocked from fully erupting through the gums. If a wisdom tooth’s path is blocked, it grows in at an angle and damages your gums and jaw. 

  1. When it comes to wisdom tooth pain, don’t ignore it or wait to visit the dentist.
  2. By removing the impacted wisdom teeth, it will prevent infection and further problems that could arise by leaving them infected for longer than necessary.

 Some of the signs of an impacted wisdom tooth include:

  • Swelling, tenderness, and pain in your gums
  • Bad breath
  • Pain in your jaw and jawline
  • Difficult to open your mouth

How long after a root canal can you eat solid food?

S

Shruti Samant

Member of team ClinicSpots.

Answered on 23rd May '24

  1. After a root canal, you can’t eat for 30 to 45 minutes to give your temporary filling enough time to properly firm. 
  2. However, it's usually advised that patients wait to eat until after the anesthesia wears off to avoid biting their cheeks or tongue. 
  3. To maintain the region clear of food particles and plaque, be sure to brush and floss often.
  4. You should also consult with your dentist regarding what you can eat and what you should avoid after your root canal.

Can wisdom teeth cause throat pain?

S

Shruti Samant

Member of team ClinicSpots.

Answered on 23rd May '24

An abscessed tooth can cause significant pain, and can also cause bacteria to spread throughout your mouth, resulting in a sore throat. This is most common with the lower wisdom teeth. 

You can also experience additional symptoms like

  1. Headaches, soreness, and discomfort in the jaw can all be symptoms of an infected wisdom tooth. 
  2. You could even notice clearly swollen, inflammatory, and red tissue next to the impacted tooth. 
  3. In extreme circumstances, you could even become feverish and experience difficulty swallowing or opening your mouth.
  4. The best course of action for a wisdom tooth infection is extraction, followed by thorough cleaning of the tissue and socket below. Your symptoms will go away after your tooth is out, and your mouth will recover rapidly.
