Tam-Tam’s Glam Slam Review- CVS Haul for 1 Hour Teeth Whiting Treatment
My teeth had become stained from drinking excess amounts of coffee & tea. I wanted to whiten my teeth, but before I went to the dentist and spent 0 I wanted to check out one of the teeth whiting system from the drug storeto see how well they worked. If it didn't work well then I would go spend the money to get them professionally whitened. CVS teeth whiting product was fast, safe and it really did whitening my teeth. I very happy with the results and would use this product again.

What can cause severe tooth pain with no signs of decay?
Recently I was able to get some dental insurance after 3 years (ugh). Managed to bump out all of my dentist appointments in a 2 week block (about 5 fillings, and a cleaning). I had been having severe pain in my upper left (farthest back) molar for nearly a year by this point and I had assumed it was just a bad cavity that would flare up randomly with breaks in between. However the fillings I got were on the lower jaw and not, in fact, where I had the tooth pain. I asked my dentist and he double checked that tooth personally, looked over the x-rays and seemed utterly stumped as to why it would feel the way it does. There is no visible decay, and nothing wrong showing in the x-rays. When the tooth isn't causing severe pain it feels very different from my other teeth. More sensitive to touch, and almost throbs like it's coming out of being numb. Very weird to chew with. When it IS hurting, it feels like it's 3x too big to be in my face. Pressure relieves some of this pain but not enough. Seems to be worse when laying down. After 2 nights of interrupted sleep because of this and I'm taking him up on the oral surgeon recommendation. But I wanted to come armed with a few ideas and potential diagnosis. (note: I've been using sensitive teeth toothpaste for over two weeks now and it's helped my other teeth wonderfully, but not this tooth. Flossing twice daily and using fluoride mouth rinse once nightly as well.)
Wisdom teeth have been removed! :)
I lacerated my gums very seriouly several years ago when using an electric toothbrush. I do not know how m?
tooth brush. I do noy know how my teeth are still standing . I am so afraid and embarrassed. I do not think my teeth can be saved--but now they are going bad. Can they be saved or do I just wait for them to fall out from decay? I need an expert.
Whos job is it to decide regular cleaning or gingivitis cleaning?
I had to change dentists due to insurance. I went to this dentist office and had ALOT of problem. They charged me 120.00 for a filling when my insurance covers 100% and charged me for x-rays even though im covered at 100%. Before I had anymore work done I immed. changed to another office... They charged me 25.00 for copies of xrays BUT only gave me ONE xray!!
Itook care of all of the above with the office manager... here my next problem.
I had a cleaning done at this crapshoot and the hygentist told me I needed a ginivitis cleaning and she was not going to note it cause it would cost alot more. She was ROUGH!!!!! i told her it hurt and she said its supposed to! anyway I have gaps in my teeth that were NOT there before and a lower incisor is now loose!!!!!!!! I do not have gum disease and there is noooo decay in this tooth... I called the office manager and she told me to write a letter to the corp office.
WHOS dutie is it to determine what cleaning is nec? =( my tooth is loose and its her fault!
necrotizing gingivitis?
when i did have dental insurance they told me i had that... i have no pain... the only thing is sometimes my gums bleed pretty badly and like my gums are a little white.. i have severe decay too.. but i cannot do anything... i brush everyday..verrrry softly. but its just not helping... what should i do.. dental costs sooo much i cant afford it.

Amazon- bit.ly iTunes- bit.ly Lyrics- I brush my teeth And look in the mirror And laugh out loud As I'm beaming from ear to ear I'd rather pick flowers Instead of fight And rather than flaunt my style I'd flash you a smile Of clean pearly whites I've been to the dentist A thousand times, so I know the drill I smooth my hair, sit back in the chair But somehow I still get the chills Have a seat He says pleasantly As he shakes my hand And practically laughs at me Open up nice and wide He says, peering in And with a smirk he says, "Don't have a fit, this'll just pinch a bit" As he tries not to grin When hygienists leave on long vacations That's when dentists scream and lose their patience Talking only brings the toothaches on Because I say the stupidest things So if my resolve goes south I'll swallow my pride with an aspirin And shut my mouth Golf and alcohol don't mix And that's why I don't drink and drive Because, good grief, I'd knock out my teeth And hafta kiss my smile goodbye I've been to the dentist A thousand times, so I know the drill I smooth my hair, sit back in the chair But somehow I still get the chills
Would my dentist have told me that I have gingivitis (or something else) if I had it?
I went for a scale and polish yesterday and my dentist didn't tell me that I had gingivitis, when I thought I might have. He did mention about decay on one tooth (which I wasn't surprised about) and that I should get braces.
I'm just surprised that he didn't tell me I had gingivitis or something worse, would he have told me or since I just paid for a scale + polish (and NOT an examination) he wasn't paid to tell me?
Probably a silly question, but I have only one experience with dentists!
I didn't asked him, I'm just surprised he never mentioned it.
Is this a sign of gingivitis? Please answer…T.T?
Okay, so i'm having my braces for more than 2 years....and while i was watching a movie just now....suddenly my teeth started to itch(bear in mind, it was only a single tooth which itches..n that tooth was previously decay but i had treatment n filling before)....i went to check my teeth in the bathroom, there wasn't anything....so i ignore it.....but after when i had my dinner n before i go to bed(there was nothing wrong with my teeth)...but the minute i went to the bathroom...gugle my mouth, spit it out...there was blood....so i panicked....n my teeth was itching again...so i brush my teeth....it was bleeding excessively( i could taste the blood, ewww)....after i stop brushing.....it stopped bleeding......am i going to get gingivitis??......
How can I avoid tooth decay better?
Every time I visit the dentist I seem to have to be given a filling. I clean my teeth twice a day and eat foods which are generally healthy.
The dentist says that my molars are very deep set which makes this kind of decay more common, but no matter how much I try (new toothbrush, etc) I can't seem to get over the problem.
Anyone have any knowledge on this?
