I understand your need for information about filling a cavity! to give you the most accurate answer about cost and time, i'll need some additional details:
1. Location of the cavity: knowing the location of the cavity (front tooth, back tooth, etc.) helps determine the complexity of the filling and its associated cost and time.
2. Size and depth of the cavity: similarly, the size and depth of the cavity influence the procedure's difficulty and length.
3. Type of filling material: opt...more

I believe there are two parts to this question a) if you got the correct advice
b) if its possible.
I'll answer the second first. Pediatric dentists handle children as young as 3 days old. Rct in 4 years old is very common and possible. However the child's compliance can not be predicted. Hence ait is strongly advised to get the procedure done by a pediatric dentist/pedodontist.
A) you have yourself written that the kid has cavities. I have no reason to believe that any wrong advice ...more

It's completely understandable to be worried about this situation. Leaving cotton in for 5 days after a tooth extraction can increase the risk of complications, so it's important to address it right away.
Here's what you need to do:
1. Contact your dentist as soon as possible: this is the most important step. Don't try to remove the cotton yourself, as this could further irritate the extraction site. Your dentist will be able to remove it safely and assess the condition of the wound.

You have heard wrong. Ther is no such ting as "cavity wave" it takes many years to develop cavities and it is a universal phenomenon. Cavity vaccines do exist but arent very effective.

Unfortunately, the term "cavity wave" is not a recognized medical term in the context of infectious diseases. It's likely a misinterpretation or misunderstanding of a specific condition or outbreak. To address your concerns accurately, I need more information:
source of information: knowing where you heard about the "cavity wave" in china can help clarify what you might be referring to. Was it news, social media, or personal communication?
Possible conditions: could you be thinking of a ...more

All food & drink containing sugar, sticky food, dry mouth, improper oral hygiene that includes improper brushing, flossing, & tongue cleaning can cause tooth decay.
There is no medicine or vaccines to stop or prevent tooth decay.
Rampant caries progresses at a faster rate in children and it involves multiple teeth. It’s also called nursing bottle caries as the decay spreads due to feeding milk during the night & putting the baby or children to sleep without brushing. Hence early diagnos...more
