I'm dealing with a pretty painful ulcer in my mouth, called a chaala in Hindi. It's been bothering me for the past three days. Can you suggest any drops or medicines that work fast? I really need some relief.

I'm 22 and have a gap between my teeth and gums, with pus around just one tooth. My periodontist suggested flap surgery once a week for four weeks after seeing my OPG. My front four teeth are loose and keep shifting is there any way to save them without losing them? Can flap surgery be done in a single sitting instead? Are there any advanced treatments to stabilize my teeth?

A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.

I'm really worried. A couple of days ago, I accidentally hit my wife on her right cheek, and now her jaw on that side is swollen. It was starting to get better, and she didn't have any pain for about two weeks. But suddenly, yesterday, she's in a lot of pain again, and the swelling has increased. Should we see a dentist, or would a regular doctor be better for this?

visit a surgeon it would be better

My dad is 67 and has aggressive periodontitis with only 17 teeth left. The doctor recommended flap surgery and bone grafting but we're unsure about skipping it. What could happen if he doesn't get the procedure done?
