Do I have to wear a retainer forever?
If this is an ortho retainer, you are supposed to wear it for life. You should check with the dentist who did the orthodontic treatment for you. Thanks. READ MORE
Is a dental filling painful?
Dental fillings are not painful and a lot of times, you do not need the anesthetic. If it is not a deep filling, we make a decision clinically after taking the X-ray. READ MORE
Can wisdom tooth pain spread to other areas?
Yes, it can spread to other areas. You should have it evaluated by a dentist. READ MORE
Does getting new dentures hurt?
You just have to get used to the new set of dentures. The retention depends on the amount of bone you have. You can have the dentures adjusted if they hurt. READ MORE
Do I need a dental follow up after getting dental implants?
You should check with oral surgeon who placed the implants as the post-op varies with the different system if the implant is placed. Thanks. READ MORE
Is a wisdom tooth removal painful?
It depends on the level of the impaction. We would need to look at the X-rays to evaluate the difficulty of extraction. The dentist or the oral surgeon who is doing the extractions should be able to explain the procedure and the healing process. READ MORE
Is it possible to remove dark spots on my tongue?
You will have to have them evaluated by a dentist for the diagnosis and based on that, the treatment will be decided. Thanks. READ MORE
Can I drink coffee after tooth extraction?
You should be able to drink coffee after the extraction. You will have to wait for a couple of hours as the patient is supposed to close under pressure to stop bleeding and you are supposed to eat soft and cold foods after extraction and you should drink cold coffee for 24-48 hrs. You should discuss with your dentist who does the extraction as they do give post-op instructions to the patients. Thanks. READ MORE
Can gum disease kill you?
The bacteria causing gum disease are the same bacteria which can cause heart disease, so there is a risk involved. You should get it treated if you have gum disease. READ MORE
How do you know when a crown needs to be replaced?
If there is decay below the crown and open margin, that is the most common reason to redo the crown. You should have it checked. Thanks. READ MORE
Should I put ice on the area my tooth was extracted?
For the first 24 hours, we recommend putting ice and then warm saline rinses. After that, I would still recommend to have the dentist who did the extraction evaluate it. READ MORE
Can a decaying wisdom tooth cause headaches?
Yes, a decaying tooth can definitely cause headaches, especially when the decay is into the nerve. You should have it evaluated by a dentist. READ MORE
What can I eat before a bone graft?
I do not think there are any food restrictions before a bone graft placement, but you should check with the dentist who is doing it. Thanks. READ MORE
What can I do to stop tooth pain at home?
I would not recommend waiting. You should probably see a local dentist for evaluation and X-ray and find the exact cause of pain. Thanks. READ MORE
How long does it take to fill 3 cavities?
It depends how big the fillings are. Maybe you should check with the dentist you are getting the fillings done. Thanks. READ MORE
Does cavity pain go away?
You should have it looked at as soon as possible as the cavity has to be big to cause pain and is an indication of possible nerve infection. You can at least get an X-ray with a local dentist, and if there is any nerve infection, you should start the antibiotics. Thanks. READ MORE
What kind of doctor should I see for TMJ?
There are TMJ specialists, but if you cannot find one, you can consult an oral surgeon. READ MORE
