I had 2 bottom wisdom teeth extracted on thursday, today is sunday. I didn’t have any pain until saturday night, is that normal? Also it is mainly on the right side. I thought that the next day would be painful but it wasn’t. It is berable pain I was prescribed percoset & motrin. I only have taken motrin.

I do everything your supposed to do. I brush my teeth, I floss, I use mouth wash. But I can still feel my bad breath after just moments of brushing my teeth. Please help, it would mean a lot.

Rude answers: block & report.

I am scheduled to have my upper left wisdom tooth extracted next Monday. I am very nervous. It is not impacted, and I will be keeping my other 3 wisdom teeth. The one getting extracted has decay and is broken. I will be awake for the procedure. (I was given the option of IV sedation but the oral surgeon said he thinks all I need is oral sedation so he gave me a presciption for a sedative called Halcion that I am to take 1 hour before the extraction, and an antibiotic that I will be starting the day of the extraction.) The surgeon warned me that I may feel about 20 pounds of pressure while he is extracting the tooth, which sounds so frightening to me. He also warned me that the tooth will probably break as he pulls it. I am very nervous and don’t know what to expect during & after the procedure, and if I should be worried about any side effects with Halcion. Also I have a very senstive gag reflex and am wondering if I should be worried about that. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

so i have cleft lip and palate.
& i have to get 2 implants on not my front 2 top teeth, but the ones next to them.

i have 2 questions about that.

1) do you think i will be asleep like they do for surgeries?
or will they just use novicane?

2) how bad does it hurt afterwards?
im aware that it will hurt alot because of the fact they drilled into my bone. but will it be unbearable, excruciating pain? or will it be an aching pain when it hurts really bad to eat, like after getting braces tightened?

this is my 8th year having braces(im only 14), and i have experienced alot of dental pain with them.

thnks!

Can it get worse? Do you loose your teeth eventually? What eventually happens? Have you had the grafting done and how did it turn out? How many teeth? How much did it cost & how much did your insurance cover? I have no gingiva on 2 back molars.

I don’t want to lose my bad breath. I see it as a sign of my unique personality. Can you good people give me pointers on how to KEEP my bad breath for my own personal enjoyment & contain it in my own personal space?

I had my molar, the one next to my wisdom tooth removed five days ago. It was extracted due to unsubsiding pain after I’ve had taken a lot of different medicines.Before the extraction they had my teeth x-rayed and saw that my wisdom tooth is soon to erupt from the gum but unfortunately it cannot because my molar is blocking it.It was an impacted wisdom tooth(but not in a very bad condition).Now,after my molar was extracted,the gum where my wisdom is,started to swell.I developed a clot but half of it now is gone because the gum was stretched when it swell.I am experiencing pain in the area but not much.It comes & goes just like lightning.Is it normal?Or i may develop dry socket?Please help.. this is really bothering me considering this is my first tooth extraction ever..Thanks a lot!

I got my wisdom teeth removed last Thursday at ten am. I went through all the usual pain, all that jazz, & now, on the sixth day after removal, the only thing that’s really bothering me is pain in my other teeth on the bottom right side of my mouth. When I bite down, they’re extremely tender and sore. My molar furthest back is the one that’s causing me the most pain. Is this normal, & is there anything I can do to ease the pain?

My family & i found a stray dog, she is a puppy. But her breath is very bad, i was thinking at first she may have just been eating odd things since she came off the streets buts its been about a week and it is very bad. It is not typical dog breath, more of a stench. Could she be sick? Is there a way to get rid of it? I tried dental chews but they did not help at all.

I had my 2 upper teeth, and my lower left wisdom tooth removed 3 weeks ago. My dentist said that my lower tooth was very hard. The left side of my mouth still hurts a lot of the time, both top & bottom are in pain. It feels like the molars that are still in my mouth hurt, but I can’t really tell, it may be my jaw. Is this normal?

I was given a course of antibiotics before extraction of ma upper tooth but now i believe the tooth next to it is infected & am on antibiotics again, why is this? how does infection generally set in after extraction, i always thought once you complete a course there doesnt be any infection even after extraction, any input plz, thanks.

Recently I have had severe bad breath, I brush & rinse several times a day but it wont go away. I have had 2 teeth pulled (no infection). I have also been diagnosed with high dysplasia on my cervix (more test on the 15th). does anyone know what is suddenly causing the bad breath & what can I do about it?

In the back of my mouth espcially my gums are covering up my teeth, like almost the whole tooth & its really irritating & painful.
is this somethin that needs to be looked at or somethin that will come & go?

I have a friend who has been complaining aobut his breath lately. He says that he brushes his teeth really good and scrubs his tongue with a wash cloth and it helps for a while but the bad breath comes back. He has used almost every toothpaste & mouthwash that is designed to fight bad breath but still no luck. Can anybody help

I am scheduled to have my upper left wisdom tooth extracted tomorrow morning. I am 35 years old, but feel like a baby because I am so EXTREMELY nervous. It is not impacted, and I will be keeping my other 3 wisdom teeth. The one getting extracted has decay and is broken. I will be awake for the procedure. The oral surgeon gave me a presciption for a sedative called Halcion that I am to take 1 hour before the extraction, and an antibiotic that I will be starting the day of the extraction.

I am very nervous and don’t know what to expect during & after the procedure, and if I should be worried about any side effects with Halcion. Also I have a very senstive gag reflex and am worried about that. I am also worried about the crunch noise, and about how they get the tooth out if it breaks.

Besides the normal…brushing & flossing…
what home remedies do you know of…
AND…if you met a cute guy or girl with bad breath would you date them? Would you tell them that their breath smells?

I’m guessing the foods that are most responsible for bad breath are meats, dairy products, and processed foods. What CAN a person eat besides fruits & veggies all the time if they want to keep their breath fresh?

Ok like really bad breath & have to deal with it all day.
Should I just flat out tell them?
Leave a bottle of Mouthwash on there desk?
Sneak some mints in there coffee?
Any other suggestions greatly appreciated.

Pain from getting your teeth pulled out & immediate dentures put in also to promote healing in my mouth. I already know about the salt water thing.

the whole left side of my face has been swollen for a few days. my wisdom tooth has been trying to come in for the past few months & it hasn’t. instead it will just hurt for like a few days & then the swelling will go down & it’ll be normal again. my question is what can i do to stop the swelling & pain? i dont have any health insurance & i am not in the position to pay out of pocket for this procedure.

He is taking breastmilk & formula during day time and only breastmilk during the night. He need to be fed three hourly.His tooth has not appeared yet. Will it be decay if he keep nursing during the night?
