Hi, Its not milk but the subgingival plaque and calculus which gives you bad taste. Still to confirm and rule out other conditions, we need to evaluate the clinical conditions. Regards Dr Amruta

Hello Lybrate-user, sensitivity is sharp, shooting type of sensation in teeth on contact of extremely cold or hot food which usually lasts for a few seconds and disappears completely after that and re-occurs again on such stimulus. Treatment plan for sensitive teeth goes as follows: 1. You can use any commercially available desensitizing toothpastes such as colgate sensitive /sensodyne /Sensodent KF / Sensoform R/ Shy NM/ Vantej /Senquel F /Shy XT /Pepsodent pro sensitive (many more are available in market) as first line of treatment. If it reduces your sensitivity substantially you can continue brushing with toothpaste in long run to avoid further sensitivity. 2. If you don't get any relief from desensitizing toothpastes it indicates a more severe problem which will need further treatment like layering/coating the damaged tooth surface OR filling of the tooth if there is big cavity OR root canal treatment in extreme cases. Getting proper treatment leads to permanent relief in sensitivity problem. And you can eat and drink cold food items without getting jerks while eating or drinking. Regards

If the bonding is done correctly and you do not use your front tooth to bite into things like apple and all there is no reason for worry at this stage you need not get a crown done, if the tooth would have been too weak the dentist who did your bonding would have suggested a crown/cap.

Getting a good night sleep before the root canal treatment is the best way to go as it would reduce anxiety and maintain the overall well being.

Yes you should not worry at all, mild pain is quite normal after a root canal filling for few days.

To close the gap. You can go for cosmetic work which is full coverage crown veneer or laminate. Or else braces treatment to overall to correct the teeth. You can use colgate paste.

Kindly get an X-ray done of the tooth having pain. May be that you have to get root canal treatment done followed by a crown/cap. Brush your teeth twice daily using correct brushing technique to maintain your oral hygiene.

Kindly get scaling done and use gum paint twice daily for 15 days. Brush your teeth twice daily using correct brushing technique.

Tooth pain could be due to number of reasons. It could be because of infected tooth, fractured tooth or mobile tooth it is important to know the underlying cause before we do any treatment.

There must be some infection in gums. get scaling and polishing done of teeth. This will solve your problem
