So ive only just noticed one of my bottom front teeth is slightly out of line. like from the left of my mouth up until the first front bottom tooth my teeth are in line. Then that tooth is more forward and then the rest of my teeth are in line with that tooth. that gum on that 1 tooth is a little bit lower than the rest of the teeth at the bottom and i think its because of the positioning as i dont brush hard, yes ive gone to sleep alot without brushing my teeth and the most ive gone without brushing is 3 days because i get low moods. I dont have gum pain or anything. Ive always had sensitive teeth ever since i was little. i read somewhere that the braces could re line the gums or something. Im asking will my gums be the same length. I also got one of my teeth at the top thats come down wonky if you check my recent posts. Im worried that if i have braces tho it will cause recession.

I have horrible jaw pain that my dentist said I may need surgery to correct. He doesn’t think I would need double jaw surgery, just single jaw surgery – my lower jaw is pretty wack (slight overbite but it’s asymmetrical as well). Currently waiting for a consult with the surgeon until after this quarantine is lifted. I’m in a lot of pain daily and getting migraines from my jaw pain so it’s pretty important I get this fixed, but I’m also a nursing student so I can’t just take off for like three months to recover lol. The pain keeps me up at night.

Most people seem to have double jaw surgery so I can’t really find a lot of info on the internet about this one… So my questions are:

1. Do I need braces for single jaw surgery?

2. What’s recovery like for this type of procedure? Should I expect the whole mouth wired shut thing?

3. Are there alternatives to correcting overbites and asymmetrical jaws in adults (I’m 24) besides surgery?

4. My jaw hadn’t given me any problems until my wisdom teeth came in about a year ago. It’s been about a month since their removal and I’m still having daily pain. What could cause the sudden change, if it wasn’t the wisdom teeth? Or did my wisdom teeth cause permanent damage that only surgery can fix?

5. My dentist said to take up to 800mg of ibuprofen when I’m having pain… but I’m always in pain. I have ulcer disease so this is very unsustainable for me. Are there any other pharmacological interventions I can use until this gets sorted? I’m also on triptans and topamax for migraines but they don’t really help when I get the kind of migraines that stem from jaw pain. It’s been confirmed I have

A month ago my dentist gave me a Toxavit (found on the internet that Depulpin is very similar to it) to kill my nerve. I had to get it out after 2 weeks but due to the coronavirus pandemic, my dentist canceled it and later I couldn’t reach her on her phone.

I had to travel in another city and after 3 weeks due to the coronavirus government announced quarantine. Now I’ stuck here on an island and dentists here won’t admit me since they say it is not urgent. But my gingiva has swollen now around that tooth and I can feel a taste of Toxavit.

Also I read that it shouldn’t be in the tooth for longer than 1 month because my mandibula can start necrosing. How dangerous is it really and is there I way I can ge it out on my own?

Dentists here says via telephone to me that it can stay in my tooth for 3 or more months but I’m scared

When I was younger I did not maintain my teeth well. I am now in my early 20’s and have since realized the impact of oral hygiene and now have a good routine. However because of my lack of hygiene as a child my teeth are very yellow, noticeably yellow. It cause me so much embarrassment now and makes me never want to smile. I would really like to get my teeth whitened professionally but I have a few questions..

1. How much does it usually cost (if it varies too much depending on location disregard)

2. Is there a point where teeth are too yellow and won’t whiten?

3. Will I have to get my fillings replaced? Thank you in advance!

Hey guys had my wisdom teeth removed a few days before shelter in place order for California and I’m pretty sure I have dry socket but my dentist is closed. My dentist did say if I had complications to call him and he would open up to work on my teeth but honestly I just feel too bad. I’ve gotten the pain in control with the use of extra strength Tylenol but the taste and smell is soo gross. Anyways anyone have any at home tips
