I got into an accident a while back, and my tooth broke. They managed to fix it, but that was 8 years ago. I'm a bit worried if there's something I should watch out for or if anything needs checking up now. Any advice?

View allI got a tooth extracted yesterday, and then I fainted a few hours later. Should I be worried about that? Any idea why that might have happened?
The red skin, bump, and pus around your nose piercing are likely signs of an infection or irritation. Given your upcoming wedding, it's essential to address this issue promptly. Here's a step-by-step plan to help your piercing heal faster: *Immediate Actions* 1. *Stop using antibiotics*: Since you've already used antibiotics without seeing improvement, it's best to consult a doctor for further guidance. 2. *Clean the piercing*: Gently clean the piercing with saline solution (14 teaspoon of sea salt in 8 ounces of warm water) 2-3 times a day. 3. *Avoid tight clothing*: Keep the area around your nose piercing free from tight clothing, which can irritate the piercing. *Promote Healing* 1. *Tea tree oil*: Mix a few drops of tea tree oil with coconut or olive oil and apply it to the affected area using a cotton swab. 2. *Aloe vera gel*: Apply aloe vera gel to the affected area to reduce inflammation and promote healing. 3. *Vitamin E oil*: Massage a few drops of vitamin E oil into the affected area to promote collagen production and healing. *Medical Consultation* 1. *Consult a doctor*: Schedule an appointment with your doctor or a dermatologist to assess the piercing and provide personalized guidance. 2. *Get a piercing aftercare product*: Your doctor may recommend a specific aftercare product to help your piercing heal faster. *Wedding Day Preparations* 1. *Temporary removal*: If the piercing is still not healed by your wedding day, consider temporarily removing the jewelry to avoid further irritation. 2. *Makeup coverage*: If the piercing is still visible, consider using makeup to cover the area.

I've been having pain while chewing and got two different opinions one periodontist said I have deep pockets and infection needing flap surgery, but another dentist looked at a local xray and said RCT is enough instead of surgery. Can you check if the xray shows a tooth infection or gum issue and what treatment would actually help?
X-ray can't confirm flap surgery need alone; deep pockets mean gum surgery, while periapical infection near root suggests RCT—CBCT imaging can clarify.

I've bitten the inside of my lip by mistake, and it's gotten pretty swollen now. It's really making eating and talking tough. What should I do about it?
You can try using an over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication like ibuprofen to help reduce the swelling and pain. Additionally, you can apply a topical oral gel containing lidocaine to help numb the area and provide some relief. Make sure to eat soft foods and avoid spicy or acidic foods that may irritate the area further. If the swelling persists or worsens, it would be best to consult with a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.
