I'm really worried because a little piece of my tooth in the upper jaw, close to my wisdom tooth, broke off a couple of days ago, and it just keeps hurting constantly. I've been taking Zerodol-P and Augmentin 375 like someone suggested to help with the pain, but it's not getting any better. Should I be doing anything else before I can see a dentist, or is there something specific I should ask them?

View allI've noticed these little holes inside my cheeks on both sides. There's no pain or bleeding, but when I touch them with my tongue, they feel like they're injured. It's a bit worrying since they're just there without any obvious cause. Should I be concerned or is this something normal? What could be causing them?
The small holes inside your cheeks, also known as traumatic ulcers or mouth sores, can be caused by accidental bites, sharp food, or minor injuries; since you're not experiencing pain, bleeding, or other symptoms, monitor the sores for healing, maintain good oral hygiene, and avoid spicy or sharp foods,

I'm dealing with a really stubborn mouth ulcer that hasn't healed in three days. I've been taking B complex tablets twice a day and using zytee gel on it, but there's no improvement. Can you help me figure out what's going on or what else I can do?
Given your symptoms, here's a suggested order of specialists to consult: *Initial Consultation* 1. *General Physician*: Start with a general physician to rule out any underlying medical conditions that may be causing the pain. *Specialized Consultation* 2. *Orthopedist*: If the general physician suspects a musculoskeletal issue, consult an orthopedist. They can assess and address potential issues with your bones, joints, or muscles. *Alternative or Additional Therapy* 3. *Physiotherapist*: A physiotherapist can help with pain management, improve mobility, and strengthen muscles. They can be consulted in conjunction with an orthopedist or as a follow-up appointment. *Pain Specialist (Optional)* 4. *Pain Specialist*: If your pain persists and is severe, you may want to consult a pain specialist. They can help manage chronic pain and develop a customized treatment plan.

I've noticed a thin film of deposit building up near my gums, and my gums seem to be receding a lot compared to before. Even though I brush gently twice a day and use mouthwash, the deposits keep coming back, and now my gums are much lower than they used to be. I first saw this last year, but brushing used to help now it's not enough. I'm really worried I might lose my teeth. Is there anything I can do to stop this without needing surgery or procedures that could make my teeth more sensitive?
There are a number of factors that can cause your gums to recede, including: Periodontal diseases. These are bacterial gum infections that destroy gum tissue and supporting bone that hold your teeth in place. Gum disease is the main cause of gum recession
