So what the problem is it?
i'dont think there's infecion cuz there's no bleeding or puss coming out.

do i have a cavity, tooth sensitivity or gingivitis?
i brush and floss every day, but for some reason i think i have a cavity. the gum directly above one of my upper back teeth hurts when i press and it hurts slightly in between but the teeth themselves don't hurt, don't bleed, and aren't particularly sensitive. its just the gum above it and slightly in between that hurts and its just that one little area. is it just a sore gum or a cavity? i am slightly worried about this. ( i don't normally get cavities.}
How to get whiter, brighter teeth?
I regularly brush and floss my teeth every day, but I find that my teeth still look somewhat dingy (I also don't drink cola or smoke). I have tried Crest White Strips in the past, but they didn't work! Any other ways that I can get a whiter, brighter smile?
I can't afford to have anything like zoom whitening done, either.
Don't like coffee, so I don't even have to worry about that one.
I think I have gingivitis (or even worse)…?
About four years ago I visited the dentist and had my last cleaning (I've been 95% cavity-free all my life), but had to return to see a hygenist and get my gums "scraped" (great fun that was). I went back to school for three years and now am having problems again. My gums bleed ALL the time, especially when I brush or floss (I brish often but, admittedly, have slacked off on the flossing the last couple of years). In addition, I have "old man" breath and it's getting to be embarrassing since I work in customer service. I will be getting dental insurance in about three months and want to wait to see the dentist until then. In the meantime, there are small white puffy patches above my two front teeth. The best temporary solution I can find is rinsing with hydrogen peroxide, but that's only temporary. What can I do in the meantime until I'm eligible for dental insurance?
Gums are bleeding after every brush, although brushing regularly?
I'm not sure what it is..I mean I brush and floss and mouthwash daily, so I'm befuddled, but its been going on for about a month. What should I presume with no dentist around?
Help and Facts with Tooth Health?
Okay, first off, I know most of this if not all is my own doing and fault, secondly I am going to see a dentist when I can afford to, as I have no insurance.
Now, I am 24 male, I have not had any cavities and only had one tooth pulled due to it being broken (molar) I got lazy in my teen years and early 20's and only brushed once a day, didn't floss or use mouthwash, and up until I moved out at 19, I had a dentist visit and cleaning annually. Now I am starting the new year right and I have been brushing twice or three times a day, 2 minutes each, with mouthwash and trying to floss every day (it is a pain though).
My question/concern is, my gums are VERY sensitive now and feel like I brushed maybe too hard? or they aren't used to me brushing so often? As well my teeth are clean and white but down by the gum line I can't get the plaque off no matter how hard I brush.
What is the best way to take care of my teeth, best products, and what NOT to do?
I use ACT mouthwash and Aquafresh toothpaste with a medium bristle and I have a soft bristle brush
Yeah could you message me on here through email or yahoo messenger? Since you are a dental assistant I would love to run some other questions and concerns by you! Thanks.
