I'm experiencing a burning sensation on my tongue that's been going on for about four or five days now. When I scraped my tongue today after brushing my teeth, a bit of blood came out, and I've noticed some redness in the middle of my tongue. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm dealing with a boil inside my cheek which I think started after I accidentally bit it, and I also have a B12 deficiency. Now I've noticed a boil on the other cheek too. It doesn't hurt much, but I'm worried if it's something serious. Should I see a dentist or an ENT for this? What do you recommend?

I've had a gum infection for the past 4 days near my lower front teeth and I'm also undergoing RCT treatment. My dentist mentioned that if the infection doesn't clear up with the RCT, I might need surgery. Is gum surgery really the best option for this kind of infection? I'm worried about what the procedure involves and if there are other alternatives I should consider first.

sx is option only.

The first four teeth in my upper jaw that show when I smile seem too big for me. They're not sticking out and are actually well-aligned, but they measure 10mm in length and 7mm in width. I'm not sure if I'm overthinking it, but it really affects my confidence I avoid open-mouth smiles and just do closed-lip ones instead. Is there a way to fix this? Can the length be trimmed down a bit, or would I need surgery to remove them and replace them with smaller artificial teeth?

This condition may require clinical evaluation to determine the exact cause and treatment. Some cases can be managed conservatively, while others may need surgical intervention depending on size, symptoms, and severity. Regular follow-up is important to monitor progress.
