I've been dealing with some painful mouth ulcers and even have one on my tongue. Should I be taking rinifol tablets for this, or would a B complex supplement be more effective? I'm not sure which one would be better to try first and want to make sure I'm on the right track. What would you recommend?

Rinifol tablets, containing vitamin B complex, folic acid, and iron, can help with mouth ulcers and tongue ulcers, especially if caused by nutritional deficiencies

I've noticed a gap between my upper teeth and I'm really curious about what the process is like to fill it. How long does something like that usually take? And also, what should I expect in terms of cost?

To fill the gap between your upper teeth, your dentist may recommend options like dental bonding or veneers. The procedure usually takes 30 minutes to an hour per tooth, depending on the treatment. The cost can vary widely, typically ranging from $100 to $800 per tooth.

I'm on an antibiotic course for a tooth cavity issue, and due to the lockdown, the dentists can't do any root canal procedures. They've given me Augmentin 625 Duo, Ultracet, and Pan D to take for the meantime. But now, after 24 hours, I'm starting to feel feverish. Could any of these medications be causing the fever?

It is unlikely that these drugs would cause fever. The fever might be due to your tooth infection. If the fever persists or becomes high grade, please consult your dentist.
