Hello, I understand your concern about your daughter's teeth grinding. Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, is a common condition that affects both children and adults. It is characterized by involuntary clenching or grinding of the teeth, usually during sleep. There are many possible causes of bruxism, including: Stress and anxiety Misaligned teeth or bite problems Ear infections Teething Sleep disorders Certain medications In most cases, bruxism is not a serious condition and does not cause any permanent damage to the teeth. However, it can lead to pain in the jaw, teeth, and face, as well as headaches and earaches. In some cases, it can also wear down the teeth and cause them to become chipped or cracked. If you are concerned about your daughter's bruxism, it is important to see a dentist to rule out any underlying medical conditions. The dentist may also recommend a mouthguard to help protect her teeth from damage. There are a few things you can do to help reduce your daughter's bruxism, including: Helping her to relax before bed by reading a story, taking a bath, or listening to calming music Avoiding caffeine and sugary foods and drinks before bed Making sure she gets enough sleep Talking to her about any stress or anxiety she may be feeling If you have tried these things and your daughter's bruxism is still a problem, you may want to consider talking to a therapist or counselor. They can help her to develop coping mechanisms for stress and anxiety. I hope this information is helpful. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Sincerely, Bard

Wisdom teeth usually make their appearance between the ages of 17 and 21, though it's possible for them to push through earlier or later. Referred to as your "third molars," these four teeth begin to push through the skin like any other tooth, which can cause pain. However, wisdom teeth are much more likely to grow in at an incorrect angle – even sideways – causing impaction that can radiate this pain to the teeth in front of it. Kindly get it extracted as soon as possible.

It is essential to recognize that engaging in sexual activities with pets is not considered normal or healthy behavior. The pain you experience during these encounters could be attributed to several factors, including: 1. Injuries or irritation to your vaginal lips and clitoris due to your dog’s teeth. 2. Infections or skin conditions that make the area more sensitive to the dog’s teeth. 3. Allergic reactions to the dog’s saliva or fur. Before suggesting any medications, it is essential to consult with a gynecologist or sexologist near your location to determine the root cause of the pain and recommend the appropriate treatment.

Please note that you will have to take balance diet and always maintain that. Practice meditation to relax yourself at least twice daily. Do take food at an interval of 2 hours everyday .but a small quantity of food each time. Never take full meal.in order to completely heal it will still take time. The thing is first to help yourself from worsening of the disease and then revert back to normal.

I'm very concerned about the symptoms you're experiencing, especially the combination of blurry vision, stiff neck, acidic taste, and fluid movement in your skull. These can be indicative of several serious conditions, and it's crucial that you seek immediate medical attention from a qualified healthcare professional, not just a dentist. Here's why your symptoms are concerning: blurry vision and stiff neck: these can be signs of meningitis, a potentially life-threatening inflammation of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Acidic taste and fluid movement in the skull: these can be caused by a leak of cerebrospinal fluid (csf), the fluid that surrounds and protects your brain and spinal cord. This can lead to meningitis if not treated properly. Fatigue, weakness, back pain, and hip pain: these can be symptoms of various underlying conditions, including infections, autoimmune disorders, and even neurological problems. It's important to understand that I am not a medical professional and cannot diagnose your condition. Delaying proper medical attention can have serious consequences, so please don't hesitate to seek help immediately. Here are some steps you can take: call your doctor or go to the nearest emergency room as soon as possible. Explain your symptoms and the history of your decayed tooth. Do not try to self-diagnose or treat your condition. Be honest and open with your doctor about your concerns and any other symptoms you may be experiencing. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully. Early diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve your chances of a full recovery, so please take action now. Remember, your health is the most important thing. I hope you feel better soon. Please take care of yourself and seek immediate medical attention.

Whether you should get surgery for your sideways-growing wisdom tooth depends on several factors, and determining the best course of action requires professional guidance. However, I can provide some information to help you understand your options: reasons for surgery: pain: if your wisdom tooth is causing you pain, especially recurring or severe pain, surgery to remove it is often the recommended course of action. Wisdom teeth growing sideways can irritate gum tissue and surrounding teeth, leading to discomfort. Infection: sideways-growing wisdom teeth are more prone to infection due to difficulty cleaning them properly. Infections can cause significant pain, swelling, and other complications, necessitating surgery. Damage to other teeth: sideways-growing wisdom teeth can push against neighboring teeth, causing crowding, misalignment, and even damage. Removing them can prevent these issues. Cyst formation: in some cases, sideways-growing wisdom teeth can lead to the formation of cysts, which are fluid-filled sacs that can damage the jawbone and surrounding teeth. Cysts typically require surgical removal. Alternatives to surgery: monitoring: if your wisdom tooth isn't causing any problems and isn't at high risk of causing issues in the future, your dentist may recommend monitoring it regularly. Pain management: while not a long-term solution, over-the-counter pain relievers and anti-inflammatory medications can help manage pain associated with an erupting wisdom tooth. Gum irrigation: proper oral hygiene and regular use of a water flosser can help keep the area around your wisdom tooth clean and reduce the risk of infection. Next steps: the best way to determine whether surgery is necessary for your situation is to consult a dentist or oral surgeon. They can assess your wisdom tooth through x-rays and a physical examination to understand its position, potential risks, and the most appropriate course of action. Remember, seeking professional advice is crucial for ensuring proper dental health and preventing potential complications.

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.
