That is very unpredictable depends on many factors. But prevention is better than cure. Avoid eating very hard and sticky food. Brush twice a day religiously.

I'm sorry to hear that you had a tooth removed during the covid-19 pandemic. I understand that you're now considering getting an implant, and i'm here to help you understand the factors that will affect your success rate. The success rate of dental implants is generally very high, with a success rate of over 95%. However, there are a few factors that can affect this rate, including: your overall health: if you have any underlying medical conditions, such as diabetes or osteoporosis, these conditions can make it more difficult for your body to heal and integrate an implant. Your jawbone health: if you have lost a significant amount of bone in your jaw, this can reduce the amount of bone available to support an implant. Smoking habits: smoking can reduce the blood flow to your gums and jawbone, which can make it more difficult for an implant to heal properly. Your oral hygiene: if you don't practice good oral hygiene, this can increase your risk of infection, which can also lead to implant failure. If you're considering getting an implant, it's important to talk to your dentist about your individual risk factors. They will be able to assess your overall health and jawbone health to determine if you're a good candidate for an implant. They will also be able to give you specific instructions on how to prepare for your implant surgery and how to care for your implant after surgery. In general, it is safe to get an implant after you have recovered from covid-19. However, it is important to wait until you are fully healed from any covid-19-related complications before undergoing any elective surgery. Here are some additional things to keep in mind: the cost of dental implants can vary depending on your location, the type of implant you get, and the complexity of your surgery. The recovery time for dental implants is typically a few weeks. There is a small risk of complications associated with dental implants, such as infection, bleeding, and nerve damage. I hope this information is helpful. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

I understand your concern about the new canine teeth growing behind your existing ones. However, I cannot provide medical advice or diagnose your situation. Deciding whether to remove your baby canine teeth for the new ones to grow properly requires a professional assessment by a qualified dentist. Consulting another dentist for a second opinion might be beneficial before making a decision. Here are some points to consider when discussing with your dentists: x-rays and examination: dentists will likely want to take x-rays and examine your teeth closely to understand the exact position and angulation of both the new and existing canine teeth. Alternative options: depending on the specific situation, there might be alternative options to extraction, like orthodontic treatment to gently guide the new tooth into its proper position. Potential risks and benefits: both dentists should discuss the potential risks and benefits of removing the existing canine teeth. Risks might include infection, damage to surrounding nerves or tissues, and delayed eruption of the new tooth. Your personal preferences: ultimately, the decision of whether or not to remove your existing canine teeth is yours. Be sure to ask questions and clarify any doubts you have before making a final decision. Remember, seeking professional dental advice is crucial in such situations. Do not hesitate to schedule consultations with dentists to get a comprehensive understanding of your options and make an informed decision about your oral health. I hope this information helps! please prioritize seeking professional medical advice for your situation.

I understand you're experiencing unbearable tooth pain due to a cavity for the past three days, and pain medication hasn't provided relief. This sounds very uncomfortable and requires immediate attention. Here's what I can do to help: 1. Seek urgent dental care: given the severity of the pain and lack of response to medication, seeking immediate dental care is crucial. Delaying professional intervention could worsen the situation and lead to serious complications. Don't hesitate to visit an emergency dental clinic or contact your regular dentist to explain your situation and schedule an urgent appointment. 2. Avoid self-medication: while over-the-counter pain relievers may offer temporary relief, they are not a substitute for professional treatment and can mask the underlying problem. Focus on receiving proper dental care as soon as possible. 3. Gentle pain management: until you see a dentist, you can consider gentle pain management measures like applying a cold compress to your cheek or using warm salt water rinses. These can offer some temporary relief without interfering with diagnosis or treatment. 4. Avoid irritants: until you receive professional care, avoid hot/cold food or drinks, acidic substances, and any activities that might aggravate the pain. This can help prevent further discomfort and facilitate proper diagnosis. Remember: your oral health is a priority, and experiencing severe pain for multiple days warrants immediate professional attention. Delaying proper treatment can lead to additional problems like abscesses, nerve damage, or even tooth loss. A qualified dentist can accurately diagnose the cause of your pain, assess the severity of the cavity, and recommend the appropriate treatment to alleviate the discomfort and address the underlying issue effectively. Please don't delay in seeking professional help. Take care of your oral health and prioritize seeing a dentist as soon as possible to find relief from the pain and receive proper treatment for your cavity. I hope this information helps you navigate this situation effectively and find relief from your discomfort. Wishing you all the best! bard ma.

Unfortunately, I cannot provide medical advice or make diagnoses. Deciding whether an apicoectomy is the right course of action for your situation requires expertise and information that I do not have access to. However, I can offer some general information and suggestions that may be helpful in your decision-making process: 1. Consider getting a second opinion: since your current doctor is unsure about the apicoectomy, it's advisable to seek a second opinion from another qualified dentist or specialist, preferably one with experience in dental implants and apical surgery. 2. Understand the risks and benefits of an apicoectomy: an apicoectomy is a surgical procedure that removes the tip of the tooth root and surrounding inflamed tissue. While it can be successful in eliminating pain and preserving the tooth, it also carries risks like infection, nerve damage, and failure to resolve the pain. 3. Explore alternative options: depending on the cause of the pain and the condition of your implant, other options might be available, such as re-treating the root canal, replacing the implant, or extracting the tooth and considering alternative restoration options. 4. Ask questions and gather information: don't hesitate to ask your current doctor and any potential second opinion providers detailed questions about their diagnosis, the recommended treatment plan, potential risks and benefits, and alternative options. The more informed you are, the better equipped you will be to make a decision that's right for you. Here are some additional resources that you may find helpful: the american dental association: url/ the american association of oral and maxillofacial surgeons: url/ the national institute of dental and craniofacial research: url Gov/ remember, your health is your priority. Do not hesitate to seek additional opinions and information before making any decisions about your treatment. I hope this information helps you navigate this situation and find the best solution for your pain and overall dental health.

Tooth which pain might need RCT and a Crown over it. Some might require just a filling. And those severely decayed and damaged might require removal. An X ray is a must to come to some conclusion. Cost will depend according to different treatments done on teeth. Hope this helps!..

When medicine do not work and cannot control the toothpain, then it is high time that you visit the dentist. First dentist will find out the tooth. Second dentist will take the xray. If the pain is due to caries, then high chances the carioes have reached the nerve and is giving pain due to infection. So dentist will in that case open the tooth and open thetooth door and then pressure inside the tooth will be released out and as soon as the pressure due to pus is released the pain will subside. But for all this you need to visit the dentist. Then in subsequent follow up will try to save the tooth via rct. Third if the tooth cannot be saved via rct then removal of the tooth, not on the same day though. If it is not due to teeth and entirely pain arising out of gums then dentist will do scaling, curettage, root planning, give you gels to apply. But for anything you have to visit the dentist. Right diagnosis is the key.

I will give you better answer after showing your x-ray or opg. Can you send me x-tay or opg? If it doesn’t cause any pain or any such problem then no need to extract it.
