Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I would like to know if you remember any history of injury to the site? And how long have you been noticing this? Did it increase or decrease in size, or observed any color change? There are 2-3 probabilities in your case, as much as I can make out from the photograph/your attachment (attachment removed to protect patient's identity). 1. This can be a pyogenic granuloma. 2.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your query and can understand your concern. In general, there are two treatment plans for fluorosis. One is veneering, where thin flakes of teeth-colored material are attached to the original teeth up to the smile line, that is, the front upper and lower teeth, which is generally visible when we talk or smile. The other is capping with teeth color material, where teeth will be first trimmed slightly from all sides so that the caps fit in properly, or composite layering can also be done.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com I understand your concern and worry. But from the things you have explained to me, I believe your dentist is very skilled and did the most exact treatment that could be done. The sensitivity that you are still complaining of might be due to shaving off the tooth structure and filling that will probably settle with time. Sensitivity happens when the second layer of your teeth structure is even a bit exposed, and as you have lost the natural part, the filling will take some time. Continue using a night guard and an anti-sensitivity toothpaste.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your query and can understand your query. Yes, you can go for an orthodontic treatment and your teeth will be settled as you want them. Look for an orthodontist, get an appointment, and you will surely get all your satisfactory answers there. You may even go to two or three orthodontists before finalizing your decision as to which one is the best for you.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. That bump seems to be an abscess collection from your explanation, and the infection in your tooth has reached the pulp. You should go to your dentist at the earliest; he or she will get your X-ray done, and then treatment will begin. First, periapical abscess drainage is essential, followed by antibiotic therapy. Follow up after two days.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern, and based on your description, it appears that your tooth has already progressed to a deep infection. Therefore, it is important that you see a dentist immediately without delay. Your dentist may advise an intraoral periapical radiograph (IOPA), as this imaging helps in confirming the exact diagnosis and extent of the problem. Once done, you can also share a picture of your X-ray with us for further guidance.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. Your temporary bridge was just for the time being, so that your dentist might have thought a permanent one would take time for fabrication, so the temporary was only for your comfort and esthetic issues. Temporary is generally given if there is a delay in permanent and to check if the patient will be comfortable with the size, color, and all. It is good that your permanent bridge has been fabricated before time, you just need to take this much care that when tomorrow before fixing permanent finally you will be asked by fitting it in your mouth if it is proper in size and comfortable or not, so be very fair to yourself and your dentist and do tell him or her whatever you feel so after that it will be their duty to fix it up whatever problem may arise. I hope this helps.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern. I would suggest you get the affected tooth extracted as soon as possible because it is not merely an extraction; your dentist will first subside the collected abscess, and as soon as the treatment gets started, you will begin feeling better. Your question about whether other things are correlated, then yes, because the abscess is nothing other than infection, and you must know our bodies are working on blood vessels, lymph nodes, glands, etc., so it does not take much for a virus to spread.
Hello, Welcome to iclliniq.com. It is the beginning of gum infection you are talking about, and you need to get scaling done soon. Bleeding gums are caused by developing plaque at the gum line, which initially causes gingivitis or inflamed gums, but if left untreated, plaque will turn harder, and there is also increased bleeding over time, leading to periodontitis or problems in the periodontal bone, surrounding bone, or jawbone. Plaque, no matter how soft or hard, cannot be removed by toothbrushing, so the mistake is not yours. You can continue with your routine brushing twice a day, and get an appointment from a periodontist or any family dentist, and get full mouth deep scaling done.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. The gauze piece can be generally removed after one to two hours, provided everything is normal. Otherwise, you can change the gauze piece, along with the medication on it, and you can put fresh cotton. I do not know what your dentist had suggested to you. But I would suggest you can remove it and eat ice cream or cold beverages, but do not sip.
