I'm dealing with a mouth ulcer and picked up Dologel CT ointment from the chemist to use on it. I'm a bit worried though, since it's meant for oral use, and I'm wondering if swallowing a bit by accident could be harmful. Can you help clear this up for me?

My front teeth are shifting outward and my gums are bleeding a lot. Is RCT needed for these teeth and how much would it cost per tooth? Can this be fixed permanently? Also, will I need gum surgery for the bleeding? What kind of dental cap would you suggest for front teeth and what's the usual price for that?

I'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.

Can gum tone powder actually help with receding gums and bring them back to normal I'm curious how to apply it correctly should it go directly on the gums or the exposed tooth roots Also looking for any natural remedies that might work without needing surgery

Gum tone powder has no proven efficacy;focus on brushing/flossing and consult a periodontist for gum grafts if recession worsens.
