Hii lybrate-user its better to avoid braces in loose tooth as it may get worst during the orthodontic treatment. Visit your dentist first you fix your loose teeth than you can go for ortho treatment after around 3 months. Thank you .wish you speedy recovery!

Hello Lybrate user. The crooked teeth can be treated with orthodontic braces. The orthodontic treatment takes up to 1 to 2 years for complete cure. The cost of braces ranges from 16k to 25k.
The trimming of teeth more will cause sensitivity. Even after trimming due to malocclusions, the teeth come to previous position. I advice you not to become stressed and consult a general physician regarding the anxiety you have. Consult me for further details. Thank you.

Filling procedures causes exposure of dentin layer of the tooth resulting in temporary sensitivity. Apply a desensitizing paste (sensodyne tooth paste) on the teeth. Wait for 10 to 15 min until you brush your teeth with the same paste. Applying it overnight will be better. Advance procedures can be done with laser. You may consult me in person. Dental tips: - visit a dentist every six months for cleaning and a thorough dental check-up. Limit sugary food to avoid tooth decay. Gargle your mouth th...more

Hi. All mouthwash are almost same, best is home remedy of rinsing with lukewarm water and salt in it. Use medium tooth brush, though more than the type of brush it's the brushing technique which plays more role. Use any sensitive toothpaste like elsenz, acclaim, thermoseal ra for sensitivity and switch over to normal toothpaste once sensitivity settles. Take care.
