Dentists

Pediatric Dentists are dental specialists who focus on the dental needs of children from infancy to the teenage years. This speciality involves additional training in an accredited institution for a period of 2-3 years. In the US, the national income average for recent graduates from these specialist residencies is between $250,000 to $300,000 per year. Most full time practitioners earn much more than the national average.

Yes, but to different extents. It depends on the the patient and the condition of his or her teeth, as well as their body's internal healing systems. Level of swelling is also determined by the skill of the operating surgeon.

Swelling is caused by a pooling of fluid in specific areas of the body. In the case of wisdom teeth removal, the body is producing a natural response to what it perceives as trauma. By saturating the area with fluids, the body is trying to allow the affected area to heal in a protected, nutrient-rich environment.

So, it is plausible that a skilled surgeon operating on a patient with an easy case of impacted wisdom teeth would produce little swelling. On the other hand, an unskilled surgeon operating on someone with highly impacted teeth would probably cause a lot of swelling.

there are levels of normal bad really bad a few things to look for, are your gums bleeding when you brush your teeth does it look like you have a build up on your teeth, do you have cavities if you do have any of these you need to go to the dentist to get checked out

for moderate gum disease they would do a deep cleaning and remove all the plack from your teeth, if you have a cavity go get it checked out if its a fresh one they will drill it and fill it if its bad then you would need to get a root canal all of this can be prevented by going to the d3entest and brushing your teeth more

When your tooth breaks nothing major happens. Go to the dentist and have it looked at. If its a big chip then the dentist will fill it in with a clear liquid that soon hardens and blends in with your tooth.. If the chip is small then nothing will happen unless it's visible.

About half an hour's wait should suffice before you take liquid orally, but make sure it is not hot and better still, make it cold. Hot drinks can precipitate bleeding. It would be a good idea not to wash your mouth vigorously after an extraction, lest you dislodge the blood clot.

It really depends on the person. There are so many different factors that decide this. To name a few: your age, how many you got taken out, how experienced the dentist is, whether you get dry socket or not, how you deal with the pain, and what you try to eat afterwards. My guess is anywhere from a few days to a week and a half. Also if you smoke, you increase the risks of having a dry socket, which causes intense pain.

YES!!
I have got my teeth pulled before, I got 3 teeth to be exact.
After they have been extracted from the mouth, the "itching" feeling means your body is naturally healing the blood clots. Don't worry, it will all be fine :)

I asked my oral surgeon at my appointment on Friday and flew cross country from California to Baltimore two days later on Sunday morning after having all four wisdom teeth removed. The pressure associated with flying doesn't impact your clotting or post surgery wounds and flying provided no additional discomfort.

Probably not. If you just got it and it doesn't hurt, wait a bit because braces work through subtle pressure and slowly tightens your teeth. If you have had them for a while, call your orthodontist because you might have broken it or something.

That really depends on what your main concern is. For many, money is the main concern. Dental care costs a pretty penny, especially for the oral surgery required to remove the widom teeth. If you need all four removed, it may be cheaper to just remove all four at one time. You will save some money on painkiller and the stuff they use to put you asleep (if you decide to be put under). If you do them all at the same time, you only have to pay for that once, but doing them separately means paying for painkillers each time. Pain is also a big issue with getting the wisdom teeth removed. I got all four of mine removed when I was 13, and I felt horrible for the first two days. I still wasn't completely better for probably a week. For people older than me, it will be worse for them. It may not be a considerable amount worse, but still, it's a possibility. No matter how you set yours up, you will most likely feel pain. Some say that by spacing it out, you don't have to deal with all that pain at the same time. Others say doing all of them together will make it easier because it's done and over with. After getting one or two removed and experiencing that, you probably wouldn't want to go through that again. In a way, it may be better to get all over with, especially if you can only take off so many days from work. All in all, this adivce doesn't and probably won't apply to everyone. To make the best decision, you should probably talk to your dentist or oral surgeon. Talking to other people who have gotten their wisdom teeth removed will also help you make a better decision.

No not at the time because they numb the gum so u pritty much can't feel anything. But after the drug wears off u have this constant pain it sort of feels uncomfortable more than anything. So u have nothing to worry about

Hope this helps

It depends on whether or not you will be put to sleep. If you are going to stay awake, then you are fine to eat right up until the surgery. Just make sure your mouth is really clean before you go. If you will be put to sleep, you are advised to not eat for 6-8 prior. Anesthesia commonly makes people nauseous and if you have eaten recently can cause vomiting. That is no fun with open sores in your mouth.

To Un-numb your mouth after having fillings done at the dentist you will need:

A glass of warm watter

Flour

Olive Oil

You will aply olive oil on the outisde of your mouht where its numb and wait 10 minutes. After that drink only a half of warm water (leave the rest for later).

Put flour inside your mouth and massage it gently from the outside only for 5 minutes . After this you put a little bit of flour on your finger tips and you jab the numbed spot for 2 minutes. After drink the other half of warm water and wait for 15 minutes and the numbing should be gone.

A tooth ache may indicate a serious infection. If left untreated these can kill you.

I believe that in certain situations~ a heart attack, stroke,or even aneurism can occur from extreme high blood pressure cause by stress,and strain brought on by the pain..

Yes !! for the most part. We get to smile a lot :-) Some days are ....well you know crazy. But we get to go home and forget about work. Most of us work four day weeks in our forties and with good planning we are financially secure.

It's interaction with a lot of folks and it's also about managing a business and being a doctor at the same time.

If the baby tooth is in good condition and is stable, it may be left alone. If its is not or is an aesthetic issue, then extraction and prosthodontic replacement(i.e..dental implant) may be a better or necessary option.

This is a difficult question to answer without more information.

If you are talking about your baby molars then yes, you lose them and they are replaced by the adult premolar teeth. You lose these between the ages of 9 and 12. At this time your adult first molars are usually already erupted and your adult second molars are just starting to erupt. See the tooth eruption chart below.

If you are referring to your adult molars then, no, under normal circumstances you should not lose them. We routinely extract the wisdom teeth (adult 3rd molars) however loss of adult teeth usually indicates some kind of disease process, such as Periodontal Disease.

Hope this helps!

The whole is most likely from a cavity so they will put a filling in it. Most likely the dentist will get you numb. When you are numb they will drill out any decay and then shape the whole so it will hold a filling properly. If it is a front tooth, you will get a tooth colored filling. If it is a back tooth, you could get a silver filling or a tooth colored filling. That depends on your insurance, the docotor and you. If you have more questions, the dentist should answer any of them before beginning the work.

It is called the alveolar ridge. =)

Because by the time you get them, you are old enough and smart enough to grab pliers and rip them out yourself instead going to the dentist and giving them a ridiculous amount to do it when you have all of the tools to do so in your shed.

This depends of the country you live in, and even the province or state. It also depends on the policy you have, even within the same provider. The best thing would be to contact your local dentist, or the dental section of your hospital, or your insurance provider and ask them.

There are also dental plans that are not insurance, but offer reduced rates that might help reduce the costs of extractions.

a hole forms in the enamel. it can be caused by many things. but decay begins and this hole progresses until it eventual reaches a nerve and becomes infected.
