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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allHey, 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

I noticed a small cavity starting in my tooth and really want to avoid dental surgery if possible. Are there any effective ayurvedic remedies for early-stage cavities? I've attached an xray for reference.
While Ayurvedic remedies can complement dental care and potentially help prevent further decay in early-stage cavities, they cannot fully reverse or replace professional dental treatment. For a small, early-stage cavity, consider these Ayurvedic approaches in conjunction with a dentist's recommendations:

I've been noticing some white patches in my mouth for the past few days and Im a bit worried. I've attached an image so you can get a better look. Could it just be a fungal infection, or is it something more serious? Since it doesnt hurt, bleed, or scrape off, and the size hasn't increased, I'm feeling a bit confused about what it could be. Should I be concerned about oral cancer? I've never smoked, drank alcohol, or chewed tobacco. Do you think it's serious enough to need immediate medical attention? This has been going on for about a month and I have them on both sides of my gums near my wisdom teeth. I dont remember hurting myself with my toothbrush, although my teeth might've bitten the same spot. Right now, Im using a multivitamin and Kenacort gel. What do you think?
May be a case of oral lichen planus. To help with this condition, you can try using a mouthwash containing chlorhexidine and applying a topical corticosteroid like Triamcinolone dental paste. Additionally, you may benefit from taking Vitamin B complex supplements to support oral health. It is advisable to consult with a dentist or an oral medicine specialist for a proper evaluation and management plan. Please continue with your multivitamin supplement and kenacort gel, but consider adding chlorhexidine mouthwash and Triamcinolone dental paste for the oral lesions. If there are any concerns or if the condition worsens, do seek medical advice for further evaluation and management.
