Hi. Good morning. Thanks for approaching Lybrate. There might be an infection. Check if you have diabetes. Or do you have any habit of tobacco. Because using tobacco causes infection in cheek hard palate and tongue. Tooth paste changing usually won't cause this much infection or discomfort. Follow me up with your oral habits and intraoral clinical picture. Take tablets antibiotics for three days. Follow up to know the antibiotics name. You can apply topical metrogyl gel in gums mildly for three ...more

This is used after normal brushing with any paste. Then spread it to all your teeth with soft brush. Leave it for 5 mins or so. Rinse your mouth.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

I have got a hygiene clean and didn’t know she did a scaling and polishing on me. I regret going to that specific dentist and should have probably just used a better recommended mouthwash for the little tarter I had built up. She ruined my front bottom teeth because I had no gaps and the gum she cut it off because it was pointy and attached to my teeth in between but it’s all of a sudden and half the amount after I left the appointment. I’m so shocked and it’s kn two places that she did and one worse than the other. I’m 100 percent sure my gum was not was it receding in anyway. Please if you can explain what happened and what did and if my gum will grow or get better. It was done on monday and it’s been thee days I don’t see an improvement and I feel like it’s getting worse. Please help me and what I can do to fix this too.

Always remember
scaling and polishing will never create gaps in the teeth.
Scaling and polishing will never cut the gums.
There is a reason why
1. The instrument that is used to do scaling is a vibrating machine, it vibrates at 120000 rpm i.e speed and some even more. So a vibrating instrument will only vibrate the calculus which you call tartar, and thus the calculus get removed.
2. The instrument that is used to do scaling has no cutting surface, so in no way it can cut gum...more

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
These white spots are caused by dehydration of the enamel surface of your teeth. Once saliva hits the teeth they will rehydrate and the white spots will disappear.

Hello. Welcome to Lybrate. If you feel like the color doesn't match with adjacent teeth, you can do restoration again. Check if you have any discomfort regarding the filling done. Do you feel any sensitivity. There are possibilities for this. So verify it. If you have further doubts. You can ask me. Thank you.

Dear lybrate-user, relax and calm down. Most likely you have impacted wax in your ear which is why you have pain, also chronic inflammation/infection of the middle ear. Please consult your nearby specialist so that a proper examination of your ear may be done using otoscope (like stethescope, and a proper diagnosis be made, so that appropiate treatment can start.
