Canker sore or wisdom teeth?
Canker sores usually develop due to stress or a change in environment. The addition of something acidic like ACV and lemon juice can cause enough of a change in the pH of your oral environment to cause canker sores to develop. Orabase or Oragel can be helpful topically until the canker sore heals. There are also products that can be used like Debactrol which will help even more, but must be placed by a dental care provider. Halting the ACV and lemon juice for several days to allow the pH to normalize would be recommended. If this sore heals and then you initiate the ACV and lemon juice again and the canker sores recur, then this may be your body telling you that it does not like this combination and it would be best not to continue. A visit to your dentist would definitely be recommended to evaluate the wisdom teeth and determine the best treatment for them. READ MORE
Is the yellow tinge on my teeth caused by smoking permanent?
The yellow tinge caused by smoking is external staining of the teeth. This discoloration is not permanent and can be treated by over the counter and/or professional whitening treatments. Over-the-counter whitening requires more time and dedication by you to remove the stains. A professional whitening treatment, provided in a dentist’s office, can remove stains in as quickly as 30 minutes. A dentist can evaluate the amount of staining present on your teeth and recommend the right product for you. While staining is not permanent, it can recur with the continued contact of tobacco products to the teeth. So if you smoke and/or or drink coffee or tea it will be necessary to whiten your teeth periodically to maintain a brighter smile. Martha G. Dever, DDS Dever Dental LLC READ MORE
