old filllings can be covering up progressed decay, because bacteria or food particles can become trapped, the tooth may have cracked, and this can cause all kinds of discomfort and pain.

Why is it problematic to change large old amalgam fillings to composite fillings?

It is problematic to change old large amalgam fillings to composite fillings because there may not be enough tooth structure left to support the new filling. If this is the case, the tooth will probably fracture soon after the new filling is placed. A better, safer alternative in this situation would be to place a porcelain crown instead of a filling.


When can you dive after fillings?

Sure. I just wouldn't eat sticky candy. In the old days, if fillings were badly done, some air might be trapped between the filling and the teeth, which could compress and cause pain whilst diving. However, with modern dentistry, this is a problem that rarely occurs any more.

You have an old nose injury that caused it to slant to the side and you want to know if your ear and sinus problems are related to it and if they are will insurance cover a surgery for your nose?

If you have had a broken nose in the past you may have a deivated septum, which simply means that the bone dividning your nostrils is skew. This skew bone can cause sinus oncgestion problems as mucus is not able to drain properly through your nose and results in a blockage. When your sinuses become congested they ussually create pressure in your head and can also lead to ear problems. The ears and sinuses are connected via the eustaschian tube and this what can cause these complications. In order to rectify this problem you will propbably have to udnergo surgery. I think that the medical aid should cover this procedure as it is not for aethetic purposes (beuatification) but rather it is due to health problems.

What would cause my 12 year old daughter to have in the last year a sore throat feeling hot red cheeks headaches stomachaches and faint weak muscles almost every day?

It seems like your daughter may actually have a sinus infection and post nasal drip. Post nasal drip is a condition that occurs when the body cannot drain the mucus normally and is forced to drain mucus down the back of the throat. When the mucus is infected and is drained down the back of the throat it can cause a sore throat and even nausea. It may even be the cause of your daughters sore stomach. The headaches are probably caused by sinus congestion. This happens because the blocked sinuses can create pressure in the head and this pressure can result in headaches and facial pain. A sinus infection (sinusitis) can cause fevers and weaken the body's immune system leaving a person feeling tired and lethargic. You can visit sinuswars.com as they provide good remedies for sinus problems and it is also a very informative site. *Post Answer* High Temperature (the degree of hotness or coldness of a body) is one of the symptom : Infection (medicine) the invasion of the body by pathogenic microorganisms and their multiplication which can lead to tissue damage and disease...."feeling sick and weak muscles"It also may be related to dental problems, which in turn can cause sinus like infections
