Dental Advices

My teeth are constantly getting infected, and I have had root canals and crowns on most of my teeth. I come from a country where there is no fluoridation in the tap water, and my mother had terrible teeth, too, so I am not surprised. When I went to the dentist, he told me that the cause of my problems is that I have bruxism. I have never heard of this before in my life, and when he explained to me what it was, I thought it a little bit strange. He also asked me if I get headaches and neck aches, and I told him yes, I am an adult. This is a natural part of life, everyone has back and neck pain above forty! I would like a second opinion, could you please help me out with this?

My tooth hurts a little bit when I eat food. Could this be because I have been eating on only my right side for a month? I went to a dentist a month ago, and he told me that I need to change my fillings from amalgam fillings (3 of them), and he also filled two of my teeth. One of the fillings was extremely painful and a root canal treatment is underway.

“Hello, I have a question, if that’s alright. My dentist repeatedly told me that a nodule in the gums will not be cured by root resection, and wants to extract the tooth and put in a crown; my question is, will this work? If you remove the tooth, will the gingiva be able to heal itself?

“I have been suffering from throat and sinus infections for years now, and even antibiotic treatments have only offered temporary relief. I had to use Biopatox again after a 2 week hiatus, because symptoms returned. Besides these annoying infections, I also have gum disease, as my gums are in serious recession. I have turned to holistic medicine, but these only alleviate the symptoms for a short time. I recently read somewhere that a crown or an amalgam filling can cause these symptoms. I this true? If this is the case, where can I go and get myself checked out to see if I have a problem? If I am allergic, can I get some kind of support for getting new crowns? I humbly wait your reply; Sz.

As time goes on, teeth become more and more yellowish or greyish, and less shiny. This is not because of some inevitability, it is simply that the enamel- that shiny, pearly and extremely durable outer layer on teeth that keep them beautiful...

As the hands of time wear on, more and more problems become apparent, even if you take good care of yourself. After the age of 40, even if you are very lucky and have lived a healthy life, you will need to start thinking about minor repairs.

Gum recession is a condition that affects many patients from many different walks of life. It usually affects patients above 30, and patients with certain characteristics are the most likely to have this problem.

I am Mark and I am a 40 something who was rescued from a big problem. I used to suffer from dental problems and missing teeth, which started to negatively impact my life. Let me tell you my story to help you decide if dental implants are right for you.

When talking about dental implants, it seems obvious to mention the ill effects of missing teeth, and because of this, they are becoming quite well known to the adult populace.

Bone augmentation therapy (that have been dubbed, somewhat erroneously as bone grafts) are a complex series of treatments.
