Made myself with ai. Is this realistic? I have an appt to get bonding today but scared it’ll look wide. I wanted only my two front teeth but someone suggested i get all 4?

My mom recently got a root canal treatment started from a dentist, I also had about 2 tooth root canal treated so like shouldn't this be straight or am I missing something?

Hi all, I went to get a filling today. My dentist was hopeful it would work and she chose that instead of a root canal. I didn’t really get much of a say, she just said it should work but in case it didn’t, I might need a root canal in the future.

I was there for about an hour. I got home & as the numbness wore off, I was in excruciating pain.

I drove back & she has just done stage 1 of a root canal.

Is this normal to have both these procedures done in one day ? She gave me 100 dollar discount but it still feels a bit annoying in terms of my money & time & pain. I suppose when she said future, i didn’t expect it would be the same day.

just recently got under an insurance that covers EVERYTHING for me dental wise, so my mom REALLY wants to milk them dry for all they got and talked about wanting me to get braces but i REALLY dont want to get braces unless they would cause that big of a difference. i dont have xray pictures so just aesthetic wise for what's visible would they make that big of a difference? i believe my dentist MIGHT have mentioned wanting me to get braces as well but im not sure? and she said my teeth look pretty good besides the cracked teeth i had.

I have the worst pain rn i legit have been crying should i ask my mum to call an ambulance

Maybe ill get the green whistle if im lucky 🍀

Hello,

I am going to attempt to make a long story short but want to give as much context as possible.

When I was 7 or 8 years old, I experienced a head trauma that knocked my two front teeth loose right after getting my adult teeth. The teeth were left to heal on their own and one of them died and became grey.

I (now 26) finally just finished getting them fixed after a long journey of invisalign/teeth whitening/prep. I got the temporary crowns two weeks ago. In the prep for the crowns, the dentist shaved the teeth quite a bit, as expected. While I was wearing the temp crowns, I experienced a bit of temperature sensitivty and discomfort with only one of my teeth (the front right tooth). It has been sensitive to cool air even and sometimes hurts for an hour or so after eating. I assumed this was just because the crowns were temporary and not very sturdy yet.

Today, I got my permanent crowns placed. I expressed the discomfort I have been experiencing to my dentist and he said that it should get better with the real crowns since they are thicker and stronger. Makes sense to me. But after my numbing wore off today, I started to feel the discomfort coming back pretty strongly. And drinking cold water right now is very much uncomfortable. I assume the nerve is irritated from the procedure... but my other tooth feels completely fine. And the one that feels fine is the one that was dead!

So now I am getting concerned and hoping that this isn't something I will have to deal with forever.

I feel I should also mention that I got a root canal done back in high school on the dead tooth (front left tooth) in an attempt to lighten the color and avoid infection. A couple years ago I went to see a dentist about a consult on fixing that tooth and he showed me that the root on my other tooth (front right, the one thats been hurting) has a very short root that could cause issues in the future. Another dentist told me the tooth was fine.

I don't know. I certainly am no expert, but I feel I have gotten inconsistent takes on my situation so just thought I'd share here and see what any professionals had to say. Or anyone that may have expereinced what I am experiencing.

19 YR M. so basically around the start of last month i started noticing my voice starting to get weaker and started to get like a different tone i would say and like i kinda had to speak up a little bit ,then like it started to the point where i can’t really sing or rap anymore( im a artist)
so i kinda just brushed it off but really once this month started symptoms started getting worse i would say i kinda started troubling swallowing things fully like at first i can initate the swallow and it would go down but it just would feel like something’s still in my throat, then over the past couple days my voice started getting drastically weaker and more hoarse and raspy i would say there’s some times i can speak up a lil but not like i have before and initiating the swallow now is more difficult i would say and food and liquid goes down slower and it leaves like a stuck feeling in my throat and i have to like double swallow, but idk if my lymph nodes or swollen or not but like the sides of neck feel kinda firm and the middle of my throat like right below my chin, just would appreciate you guys opinions and observations

I’ve just got home from the hospital with my daughter. We were in there for 24 hours as she told me her ear was sore and when I looked behind her lobe there was a hard lump. A few different test results later we were told it’s a swollen lymph node. Now the tooth. 5 days ago my daughter was knocked in the mouth at school and it shifted her front baby tooth and it was loose. Today she but into something and the tooth fell out but this is left behind? Could it be an infection and that’s caused the swollen lymph nodes? Does this need a dental visit? Happy to take her but after 24 hours in hospital she is exhausted. Attached a photo of the lump behind her ear just for reference. Thanks everyone 🙏

I had to go to the ER in France and they really couldn't help me. I've lost a lot of blood and the er dentist here told me to keep using the mouthwash and toothpaste even if it hurts. I don't know how much blood I've lost.. I do vape and drink but haven't since I've been to the er two days ago....

Hi everyone, I’m in Portugal and my dentist says one of my molars is “dead” and needs to be extracted.

I had a root canal in 2015, but the filling broke/chipped out in 2022. I neglected it, and over the years it developed a large cavity.

Is extraction really necessary, or could they clean the decay, redo the root canal if needed, and rebuild the tooth with a filling/crown?

I’m thinking about getting a second opinion from an endodontist before extracting it. Has anyone had a similar situation?

Thanks!

I'm ashamed to say I don't visit the dentist as regularly as I should. I've been feeling an on and off ache on my molar. I checked to see and was shocked to find a discoloration I've never noticed before. My teeth are pretty jacked up so please don't judge. Is this a cavity/decay? How cooked am I?

Hello, I am writing this because I am a huge hypochondriac and I need someone to tell me if I should be worried or not.

So last year I had a root canal treatment done on a tooth in the back of my mouth. The dentists didn't close the hole and so my tooth has been hollow for like a year, I didn't go back to the dentist in that time because I became homeless and I didn't have time to worry about that.

Now the tooth is starting to get loose a little, I'm not in any pain, nothing is red or anything, it's just very loose. I'm going to the emergency dentist tomorrow but I'm just really scared, can anyone tell me if they've ever seen this kind of situation and if I should be worried? I'm mostly afraid to get a sepsis or any other kind of infection or anything

Hello everyone,
To explain everything, it must have been two years since I had the white tongue. I wasn't more worried about it than that but it's been 6 months since I looked at the problem because yes I'm sure it's not normal to have a language of this color CONSTANTLY day and night.

Important points to know:

- I have very good oral hygiene (tooth brushing 2/3 times a day).
- Hydropulsor.
- Mouthwash from time to time (coconut oil, bicarbonate and whatever you want).
- Chewing gum with xylitol.
- I drink a lot of water (about 3L/day).
- I do sports and therefore I eat accordingly (fiber, zero sugars and so on).
- I don't drink alcohol and I don't smoke.
- It doesn't go to the tonguescraper for those who would ask.
- I'm not on medication either.

No particular symptoms. It just gives the smell a little unpleasant in the mouth. Does anyone have a solution to this ? Have anyone ever had this problem and found a cure ? Do not hesitate to share your experiences with me. Thank you !

Hi. Yesterday i had very sore inflamed gums. I rinced my mouth with salt water. Then this morning i woke up with a red lump. No pain however a sore lymph node under jaw. Nothing major. During the day its gotten less red and more translucent with some yellow.

Im here, to ask for advice or any help because its impossible to see a dentist. Im in Latin America and just not possible.

Will it pop? Get worse?

Any advice is appreciated.

Im a massive panicker so that doesnt help. Lol

[Sorry for the awfull image.]

I got a cracked molar removed yesterday around 12:00 PM. After going home, the bleeding wouldn't stop, and I felt very dizzy. It finally started calming down around 8:00 PM.
The heavy bleeding has stopped, but there is still old blood and a large blood clot around the extraction site today. I have since rinsed my mouth out gently. The pain has been mostly gone since yesterday, only feeling a slight twinge here and there, but it doesn't really hurt now. Is everything healing ? Is this a bloodclot should I remove it ? What do i do ?

Hello, Im 19 years old. I had this broken tooth since 11 years old. Ive been think if it's alive. Since it still reacts to cold.

Here's a photo.

31M, This completely came out of nowhere. Tooth is asymptomatic, never felt anything from it. I felt the cold test but it was slightly delayed so the tooth is at least vital? He said there is a 5mm pocket on the back side of the tooth, wisdom teeth were out in 2013. This new dentist says he's 99% sure this tooth needs RCT. I am going back for the closer Xray image and second opinion from another dentist in a few days. Is this dentist right or should i be skeptical? Thanks in advance

It doesnt hurt at all. Is it band 2, in need of shaving and filling or does it need a whole new crown

It’s been sensitive for a little while. I wouldn’t say it hurts, but it’s definitely a strange sensation. I brush 2, sometimes 3 times a day depending on what I eat. When I position my head at certain angles like if I bend down I can feel it. Just an odd sensation. How did it get like this?

Please be kind. We don’t have dental insurance yet so I resorted here.

Is my 5.11years old son’s gums normal? I think it looks puffy but I have no one to compare it to. Two permanent teeth are erupting, while the upper teeth were knocked off due to an accidental fall last March. Teeth aren’t coming out yet.

Are the gums normal or puffy?

Hey dentists , i have teeth anxiety cuz i think they arent perfect, i have a minor overbite w crowding ik my teeth
3 of my wisdom teeth also erupted

So I've been doing a hell of an extensive research on this, and I've been reading a lot of mixed experiences regarding what happens to your face in the long term when a first molar is removed. Others say it does not change anything while others say the opposite. Though, my dentist told me that after a week of extraction I should get a plastic denture for it, then after a month, a flexible one.

Im scared, will it really cause my face to change in the long term, and will the flexible dentures be good enough to eat everyday food, thank you.

Omg, is this another cavity??

If it is, is the treatment significantly gentler than my last 4 fillings that I could put the tip of my fingernail into?

24F, I don’t smoke or drink. No medical conditions of note. Gums are relatively healthy otherwise. I noticed it was a bit sore about a day ago, and ended up brushing pretty hard. Like title says, it really only hurts (and bleeds) when brushing, there’s no pain when I clench my teeth or eat/drink. What could it be? 😓
