Yes, you can use mouth wash with an abscess on your gums. Using antimicrobial mouth wash can also reduce the infection and should be used daily. Another option is to rinse your mouth with sea salt and water.

I don't think so... but if it is happening to you, it may be serious! Call a doctor!

It depends on what you mean by "shot" ~ if you mean freezing, then it is quite normal to have an increased heart rate and maybe a little hyperventilating. If it is quite severe, you may want to discuss it with your dentist to explore other options. I am thinking that you are perhaps sensitive to the epinephrine in the shot given for anesthesia. Epinephrine or pseudoepinephrine can make a person feel panicky, heart racing, jumbled thoughts etc. Just ask your dentist to use an anesthetic without epi. yes my 16 year old son has had shots from dentist before and this has never happend ,but this time it hit an artery in his gum instead and made his heart race bad and he could not breath well for a few ,well this went away but when he can home it got worse,he had the worse head pain and had fever bad diarrhea and has not been abel to brath right ,he had to go to hospital and now has scb fever,and has been really sick,i know it was from this shot some kind of bacteria got in his lung or heart,i hope this will go away can you help with some of my questions .thank you kyla rugrats@gtlakes.com please get back to me soon. ANSWER YES-Novocain should be avoided by ANYONE with an anx disorder-it causes the heart to beat slower and harder in most cases and is a derivative of epinephrine which most definitely will bring on a severe panic attack, that combined with the anticipatory anxiety over seeing the dentist and as an anxious person being much more attuned to bodily sensations is not a good combination. IF YOU SUFFER FROM ANXIEY TELL YOUR DENTIST, always take a sedative before hand (a benzo) and ALWAYS make sure that they use POLORCANE (not sure on spelling here but it sounds like POLAR-CANE, it is a non epinephrine derivative and will not cause the heart racing, but on the down side the numbing effect is much shorter lived than Novocain.

Everyone gets a bruised jaw from wisdom teeth removal. Ibuprofen is the best thing to take. Redduces pain swelling and inflammation. If you cannot take ibuprofen take acetominophen (paracetamol in UK) It's not all that unusual to have swelling and pain after extractions, especially wisdom teeth. For swelling use an ice pack. For pain try ibuprofen or Aleve, or see your dentist for a prescripton for a narcotic pain med. They can call in Tylenol with codiene (not that strong) or they can hand write a prescription for oxycodone (Percocet) [can't call in], which is what I would insist on. It's YOUR mouth. I believe that the degree of pain and swelling is directly related to the experience and competence of the Dentist, so don't fall for "take two Tylenol, you'll be fine". I had ALL FOUR wisdom teeth out at once and had almost no swelling. Two Percocet and back to work that day. THAT'S a GOOD dentist. My brother had his out by some hack dentist in the Navy and his face was the size of a basketball for 3-4 days. THAT'S not a GOOD dentist. Bruising and swelling after having wisdom teeth removed is quite common, depending on the skill of your dentist. A good dentist will cause less bruising and swelling. I took panadol forte, which is okay, but you need to eat something when taking it, otherwise you will feel dizzy and may faint, unfortunately the last thing I felt like doing after having wisdom tooth surgery was eating. Ask your dentist, if you have a good one, they should brief you fully and provide post surgery advice and support. Use ice packs the day of the surgery and take the pain killers drungs that were prescribed by your dentist, preferably non-ŝteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Bruising and Swelling is not always dependant on the skill of the dentist. My brother and I went to the same one and I was much more swollen than him. This is because the tooth had grown into the jaw bone more so he had to drill mine out. This is very common.

Math is a very important core subject and is always needed to apply for any good jobs our society. Science is also another important subject too if you want to be a dentist but maths is also strongly required to achieve this...

yup. you will experience swelling along the whole jaw which may make your other teeth feel a little sensitive. Just keep ice on it and you will be fine.

Yes but novacaine and/or liquid cocaine will be used to numb the area.

the wisdom tooth is the last tooth to erupt which erupts any time around 18 to 24 years of age.

If you're still experiencing severe pain, stay on Ibuprofen or any prescribed drugs. There's potential you could be suffering from a dry socket, where the blood clot in the wound was removed due to sucking or improper care. This exposes the bone and fragile nerve endings to food and air, causing serious pain. You may also have an infection or damaged your stitches. Make sure you rinse with salt water to avoid this. Severe pain shouldn't last for this long, contact your oral surgeon if you're concerned. I've had mine out for 3 days and all pain is gone with medication. Even though its been after 24 hours, icing def. will help with pain, not swelling. You can also wet tea bags and freeze them. Then bite on them where the surgery site is. I had a plastic surgeon share this with me and it's done me wonders. The tea will help heal the wound and the cold temp. will help with any pain. One thing many surgeons forget to say is that you need to stay away from hot foods, the gums are very sensitive after extraction and hot foods will hurt twice as much. Hang in there.

No Avelox is for some infections caused by bacterial.

Wisdom teeth should be extracted when they push and damage the 7th tooth while they grow, also when they develop a cyst or cause an infection, and wisdom teeth are removed if they're causing problems with prosthesis. Here's an interesting video about wisdom tooth extraction.

It's called disclosing solution.

Absolutely not

No, there is no way to get rid of a cavity other than going to a dentist. There are ways to help the pain temporarily if it's needed, but only a dentist can remove the cavity.

And even when you get rid of the pain it doesn't mean that the problems with the cavity have stopped. The bacteria that causes cavities are not removed by the pills that ease the pain. If you don't treat your cavities you can easily end up with total prosthesis by you're 50. You can see this video for more info on cavities -

The rule of thumb is one hour for every drink. That is about how long it takes your body to metabolize the alcohol. A "drink" is one shot, one 4-oz glass of wine, or one 12-oz beer. If you have been drinking strong mixed drinks, it may take much longer.

They assist the dentist. they help, take care of things the dentist does not have time for and in general are an extra pair of skilled hand to assist in dental care.

"Marks"? Confused. In the ordinary course of things, one must have (at least) an associates' degree --- preferably (today) a bachelor's degree. The disciplines must include organic/inorganic chemistry; at least 101 + 102 physics; biology 101 + 102, preferably in vertebrate/invertebrate biology; cell (biocellular dynamics); math through calculus; and have studied the "core ciriculum", as in English, humanities, social science, etc. The point being, that it is just as difficult to get into Dental school, today, as it is to get into Medical school. So do your homework and get your degree.
