Hi there. I m gum specialist. Bleeding from gums is mostly due to deposits/tartar on teeth. Your cousin needs a professional cleaning which will also reduce the bad odour. A mouthwash after cleaning will solve this issue. You can direct me your further queries in private question section.

This prob is common with dentists. Maintain proper working positions n give rest to your neck at regular intervals n do some neck excercises at these intervals. Sleep without a pillow.

Cost of implant cannot say but generally will be 25k. (10k for prosthesis) Advantages: replacement of missin teeth with fixed implant.If you don't have a posterior back tooth for support and are unable to place a bridge, better than the bridge because you don't have to grind the neighbouring teeth. Disadvantages;: cost.

Most likely you have periodontal problems. For this, you need to hurry to the dentist with opg x ray for either curettage or periodantal flap surgery (depending on the degree of bone loss). Please do not delay as this will end up with loose teeth (as the foundation of your teeth i. E, gums and bones will be infected). Since you r young, the treatment prognosis will be good if you follow the instructions properly.

•Eat a healthy, balanced diet and avoid eating strongly flavoured or spicy food. •Cut down on sugary food and drink, as it can increase the amount of bacteria in your mouth. •Reduce your alcohol consumption. •Stop smoking. •Cut down on coffee. •Drink plenty of water to help prevent your mouth becoming dry. •Chew sugar-free gum after eating, to stimulate the flow of saliva. This will help clean away any remaining food particles. •Don't use toothpaste to clean your dentures, as it can scratch the surface and cause stains. •Clean your dentures thoroughly using soap and lukewarm water, denture cream or a denture-cleaning tablet. •Use a separate toothbrush to clean your dentures. •Make sure you visit your dentist for regular check-ups. Having regular dental check-ups will ensure that any plaque is removed from your teeth, particularly in areas that are difficult to reach. •Your dentist can recommend the best way to clean your teeth and gums, and point out areas you might be missing. They can also identify any signs of gum disease and ensure early treatment. •Gastritis, lung & sinus infection may also be the cause of bad smell in the mouth. 90% of bad breath is due to a dirty tongue. •If your bad breath is caused by a gastrointestinal problem, such as an H. Pylori infection or gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), you may be referred to a gastroenterologist. •Persistent bad breath or a bad taste in the mouth may be a warning sign of gum (periodontal) disease. Gum disease is caused by the buildup of plaque on teeth. •You may need deep cleaning & fill tooth cavities with artificial enamel filling. Rinse your mouth thoroughly with a mouth wash until then. Advance procedures can be done with laser too.

OK, so you have just had a tooth removed, or are about to have this procedure. What do you need to do to give yourself the best chance of a speedy and painless recovery?
Your dentist will give you instructions on what to do at home, before you leave the surgery, following an extraction. It is important that you closely follow any tooth extraction aftercare instructions that the dentist gives you.
The advice is aimed at reducing any problems that may occur after the treatment, i.E. Giving you the best chance of an uncomplicated recovery. Pain and bleeding are the two main possible problems which need to be controlled.

Then many different types of gap closure can be done either with Crowns or tooth colour filling materials. The fees will be again from Rs. 2000/ to 8000/

Brutish is a grinding habit and happens when a patient is under some sort of emotional disturbance. Only way to break the habit is to get a night guard made which is to be worn while sleeping. This way your teeth would be protected from attrition and sensitivity which may occur in future with regular grinding of teeth.

Dear Lybrate user, your vitamin B-12 levels are absolutely normal. Recurrent mouth ulcers can also be due to stress, dehydration, smoking, excess alcohol consumption or some underlying medical condition. Get your blood sugar also checked once. Keep yourself hydrated by consuming plenty of water and fluids. You may also consult a general physician for further queries.

Crowns for sensitivity? I dnt think so. 1st the reason for sensitivity should be diagnosed and then they can b treated with conservative methods like filling.

normally ulcers are due to Vitamin deficiency or bad digestion. other causes are trauma from teeth, allergies to certain foods n medicine, change in lifestyle, increased body heat, consumption of spicy and oilly foods. Start taking vitamin supplements. eat healthy and balanced diet. avoid oilly n spicy food. increase your water intake

Hello Always make a habit of getting your teeth clean in the month of your birthday.

Teeth pain may be due to various reasons like infection, sensitivity or trauma. If your teeth is decayed it is better to get it filled or treated by a dentist. If you are opting for root canal treatment do not forget to get a crown on the effected tooth. If you want to go for only medicinal treatment so let me tell you only medicine are not going to be very effective untill you get this treated by a dentist.

Hello, broken teeth may be due to many reasons, either injury, cavitation, etc. Broken teeth may repaired by root canals, post and core and finally placing a crown. For all this you need to visit your nearest dentist as he/she will be in better situation to clinically access the situation.

Ya measure problem is diabetes you must need to control diabetes first n proper maintain oral hygiene n use mouthwash like hexide mouthwash.

Dear ones,
Tooth brushes should not be kept near a toilet, the airborne particles from a flush can travel upto 6 ft so it can easily contaminate the tooth brush which is bad for oral health.
Take care, regards

Namaskaar Manav! Agar aapke daanto ka peelapan tambaku ke kisi bhi tarah ke prayog karne se hai to aapko uska prayog band karna hoga tabhi upchaar kaamyab ho sakega. Iska upchaar hai ek yogya dant chikitsak dwara daanto aur masudho ki paradhwanik yantrik safai. Taduparant bhi peelapan barkarar rahe to rasayano dwara dant chamkai ki prakriya puri ki ja sakti hai. Apke mukh se badbu aane ka bhi ilaaz yahi hai. Saath hi aap koi mukh kulla drav bhi prayog kar sakte hai jaise chlorhexidine or listerine itayadi. Ek padha likha gyani dant chikitsak aapko gharelu nuskhe se daanto ka peelapan door karne ke salah nahi dega jaise ki neebu ka ras, khane ka soda ityadi. Ye sab galat tarike se prayog karne pe daanto ko kshanik laabh milta hai aur baad me jyada nuksaan hota hai. Isliye hey mitra aap gharelu nuskhe pe dhyan na de aur ek bhingya dant chikitsak se sampark karen. Dhanyawaad.

Avoid sticky sweets, such as toffees, soft candies and pastries. These types of foods stick to your teeth and feed decay-causing bacteria. When you do eat sweets, eat them after a meal. When candies are eaten alone, they are more likely to remain stuck between your teeth.

Dear Lybrate user, Please visit your dentist and get the tooth checked. The pain could be a reaction to the impact and may subside in sometime, or the tooth could be damaged, which will be apparent after an X-ray. There is no tablet that can treat the condition. Please visit your dentist at the earliest.
