how much does it usually cost to get an oral fibroma removed from the inner cheek mine happened because my braces kept rubbing against it and now i'm worried about the surgery
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The cost of oral fibroma removal can vary depending on location and the healthcare facility, It's a minor outpatient procedure done under local anesthesia and usually takes less than 30 minutes. Since it developed due to irritation from braces, removal is safe and recurrence is unlikely if the cause is addressed.

I'm a bit worried because I recently had my wisdom teeth removed on June 17th, and just got my stitches out on June 24th. There's this gap now that seems quite visible, and I can even see a part of the tooth in there. The dentist didn't say much except to come back in 15 days, but I'm wondering if this gap might lead to an infection, especially with my eating habits. Could you tell me what I should or shouldn't be doing in the meantime?
The visible gap and exposed tooth fragment after wisdom teeth removal are common concerns; to minimize risks of infection or complications, avoid chewing hard or sticky foods, brushing too aggressively, or using a straw for 2-3 weeks; maintain good oral hygiene with gentle saltwater rinses and soft-bristled toothbrush; and schedule a follow-up appointment with your dentist as recommended to assess healing progress and address any concerns

I'm really having a hard time with my wisdom teeth coming in since there's no space for them. It's tearing my skin in the mouth and I've also been dealing with some painful canker sores right next to that tooth for the past few days. My right jaw is a bit swollen, and the pain is just unbearable. I feel feverish with a mild headache. What should I do to get some relief?
It sounds like you're experiencing a painful situation with your wisdom teeth, possibly leading to infection or irritation. I recommend rinsing your mouth with warm saltwater to soothe the pain, using over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen, and applying a topical ointment for the canker sores. However, given the swelling, fever, and persistent pain, it's important to see a dentist or oral surgeon as soon as possible to assess if theres an infection or need for extraction.
