Why does a patient who underwent surgical removal of the wisdom tooth experience pain in the evening and at night?

Hello doctor,

My wisdom tooth was removed surgically. Today is the ninth day, and I have been experiencing pain for the past two days. It starts in the evening and increases at night. I do not have pain throughout the day. What could be the issue?

Will an erupting wisdom tooth interfere with teeth alignment using aligners?

Hi doctor,

I have crowded teeth and a wisdom tooth coming in the lower jaw and the back side, which has not grown fully. It is only on the surface, and just a little bit is beneath. Will it cause an issue, or should I wait for it to come? There are no major symptoms or issues with it, but I am starting my aligners treatment by next month, so I just wanted to confirm if there is an issue with these teeth. But there was some redness for a few days some weeks back. Please help.

Hello doctor,

After getting veneers, can I eat anything I used to eat with natural teeth? Will I be able to brush my teeth normally? After putting veneers, do they fall? Can you please explain the procedure for veneers?

Can dental injections be painful?

Hello doctor,

I am 17 years old and have always been terrified of needles.

I have a cleaning appointment tomorrow.

I know that I have a small cavity.

Not sure if they are going to get it filled.

So I wanted to know, what does the dental injection feel like?

How painful is it on a scale of one to ten, and does it even go deep into the gum?

I want to ensure what to expect from the dentist, as it has also helped in the past.

Kindly help.
