What needs to be done if your 8 year old's top lateral incisor is coming in at almost a 90 degree twist?

first and foremost x-rays should be done.if space won't be enough,i recommend using myofunctional appliance if space is not enough and afterwards use braces to turn the tooth.

It could correct itself, but I would take him to a dentist to have it looked at. You can wait until it is all the way in to be sure it won't twist the right way on the way down, if you want. There are lots of things that can be done if it doesn't correct itself. If you don't have dental insurance, the average fees for this type of visit will be about 85 dollars for the exam and one xray.

Don't worry--it is a common problem for teeth to come in at angles. Go to your dentist/orthodontist and get an evaluation (this usually includes having a few x-rays and photos taken). After that, braces will most likely be the next step taken. Think about 18 months. The only catch is that you will most likely have to wait until your 8 year old has all of his/her permanant teeth.

Many people say that they encounter lots of problems right after their wisdom teeth grew Do wisdom teeth always cause problems?

No. If there is enough room they will usually come through into a useful position and cause no more problems than any other tooth. Often there will be some slight discomfort as they come through, but this is only temporary and will disappear once the tooth is fully in position.

Does drilling and filling hurt?

To me it felt like someone was drilling and spraying cold water in my mouth. I was numb so I didn't really feel any pain.

Will people be able to see the holes in your mouth after getting teeth pulled?

Depending the area where you are having your teeth pulled people may only see a space but the actual "hole" where the tooth was pulled from heals over and is just like a regular gum area. Depending on WHERE they are pulled, no. The holes will close and your teeth will move up to fill those holes. If it is teeth in the back, they will eventually close. Usually they stitch the hols with dissolvable stitches.

Who earns more vet or dentist?

It depends on where you are located, what your clientele is, and what kind of procedures you do. I do know that the vet's patients complain a lot less, so that has to be worth something -- (just kidding, even though it's true). Both professions make an above average income, and generally do quite well. If you are asking because you are trying to decide what career path to take, I would say do what you like, and not choose based on which one you think will make more money.

If you have a broken tooth can you put on a crown and leave the tooth in your gums?

yes, you can get a crown on your broken teeth. But, i recommend you to try and get the broken tooth pull before it cause problems in the near future. It can cause nerves problem and then you will have a bigger problem.

If you're getting all 4 of your wisdom teeth pulled and they are not impacted and you're really scared should you be put under or what?

Don't sweat it. It is unique to the individual. Since they aren't impacted, the odds are even better that it is no big deal. There is nothing to be scared of. There will always be a certain amount of discomfort in your life. Getting all worked up over it will not help, but probably make it worse. So relax. At least your getting them all done at once. the discomfort is no worse with one , than three. I know!

Can the teeth in a Valplast partial break or break out?

break out

The teeth (usually made from acrylic) are bonded to the partial using mechanical interlocks. When properly fabricated, the bond is extremely strong. But in some cases the teeth themselves might crack or weaken and can then separate.

In those cases, a dentist can send the partial to a qualified dental lab to have the tooth reattached or replaced.

What to do if a 4 year old girl fell on her face and is bleeding from her gum?

My 4 year old niece fell hard on the ground and hit her face. When she got up she was bleeding from her gum right over her 2 upper front teeth. She keeps saying her teeth are hurting but I'm not sure if she really means teeth or she just doesn't know the difference between teeth and gum but either way should this be something to worry about? Her teeth seem normal though, just some tumering from the fall.

What should be done in such case before considering taking her to a doctor/dentist?
