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?

Hey, so I've been dealing with this really uncomfortable pain on the left side of my forehead and my upper left gumsteeth. It became worse overnight, and now the whole left side of my upper face is aching like crazy. I even feel a bit feverish. I tried taking some crocin pain relief this morning because it was just too much to handle, but I'm still struggling to eat on my left side without pain. Chewing is especially tough. The gumspain hasn't gone awayany idea what might be happening or what I can do?

Your symptoms, including sudden severe pain on the left side of your forehead, upper gums, and teeth, accompanied by feverishness, suggest a possible dental issue, such as an abscessed tooth or infected gums, or potentially a trigeminal neuralgia or sinusitis; schedule an urgent appointment with your dentist
