I noticed a small cavity starting in my tooth and really want to avoid dental surgery if possible. Are there any effective ayurvedic remedies for early-stage cavities? I've attached an xray for reference.

While Ayurvedic remedies can complement dental care and potentially help prevent further decay in early-stage cavities, they cannot fully reverse or replace professional dental treatment. For a small, early-stage cavity, consider these Ayurvedic approaches in conjunction with a dentist's recommendations:

View allI've been dealing with bad breath a lot, even though I make sure to brush my teeth twice every day. It's really bothering me since the problem sticks around all day long. I'm starting to wonder if this could be a sign of some other medical issue. What could be going on here?
See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I've been noticing some white patches in my mouth for the past few days and Im a bit worried. I've attached an image so you can get a better look. Could it just be a fungal infection, or is it something more serious? Since it doesnt hurt, bleed, or scrape off, and the size hasn't increased, I'm feeling a bit confused about what it could be. Should I be concerned about oral cancer? I've never smoked, drank alcohol, or chewed tobacco. Do you think it's serious enough to need immediate medical attention? This has been going on for about a month and I have them on both sides of my gums near my wisdom teeth. I dont remember hurting myself with my toothbrush, although my teeth might've bitten the same spot. Right now, Im using a multivitamin and Kenacort gel. What do you think?
May be a case of oral lichen planus. To help with this condition, you can try using a mouthwash containing chlorhexidine and applying a topical corticosteroid like Triamcinolone dental paste. Additionally, you may benefit from taking Vitamin B complex supplements to support oral health. It is advisable to consult with a dentist or an oral medicine specialist for a proper evaluation and management plan. Please continue with your multivitamin supplement and kenacort gel, but consider adding chlorhexidine mouthwash and Triamcinolone dental paste for the oral lesions. If there are any concerns or if the condition worsens, do seek medical advice for further evaluation and management.

I'm using Ornigreat gel for my bleeding and swollen gums and I'm also undergoing some screening treatment. Is this gel okay to use for my symptoms? Is there anything else I should be doing?
Continue same treatment.
