I do visit dentist per year once at least. So in 2019 during my covid treatment, I had some complications of palate as well as below my tongue near lower right wisdom teeth. Co incidentally my dentist (oms) he is the person who treated me for my oral issues, than he suggest me after recovering from all issues in 2020 january that I should quit smoking.

Kindly consult a dentist in person for further suggestion. We need more investigations with clinical examination to decide upon treatment. You may need coronoplasty (smoothen teeth edges) along with multivitamin cap, for five days in the morning after meals & antiseptic ointment or gel (turbocort) on the area of ulcer until then. Mouth sores are common and rarely cause complications. Most go away in about a week, but it’s important to monitor any mouth sores you develop. If you are concerned, or...more

Hello lybrate-user.
Yes at times it does happen that grafted bone does not grow 100% & hence your tooth is still weak. You can either wait & check if the bone healing improves or you can get a smile design done which will improve your smile to some extent. It is not an alternative to braces but in some cases smile design gives better result than braces.

Symptoms you said donot always say about fracture, it could be due infection in the extracted site or due to maxillilary sinusitis or there are many causes.
Do not jump to fracture directly

No it's not due to those medicines, it may be due to something else, well you have to avoid fatty foods, avoid oily food, do regular exercise, you need proper homeopathic treatment for this purpose, well you have to extract the teeth.
