My friend has an underdeveloped left maxilla and mandible causing a deviated smile and nose. He's considering orthognathic surgery but his parents are really anxious about it now they're both asking me to help convince the other. I'm trying to understand what complications could happen during or after the surgery and how long the post-op care might take

View allMy wisdom tooth is growing sideways under the gums and pushing against my other teeth. The dentist recommended surgery for removal, but I'm wondering if homeopathy can help avoid surgery since the tooth isn't even visible. Are there any homeo treatments that might work for this?
While some may explore homeopathic options, for an impacted wisdom tooth causing issues like misalignment and pressure on other teeth, surgery is generally recommended as the most effective solution. Homeopathic treatments haven't been proven to be a reliable alternative for such dental problems.

I'm trying to figure out how much it might cost to have an oral fibroma surgically removed. It's on the inside of my cheek and developed because my braces keep rubbing against it. Any idea what the cost could be?
The cost of surgically removing an oral fibroma can range from 5,000 to 50,000 or more, depending on factors like location, surgeon's expertise, hospital or clinic fees, and the complexity of the procedure, and in your case, since the fibroma is caused by friction from braces, your orthodontist or oral surgeon may recommend a simple excision procedure under local anesthesia.
