braces r not for life but mostly between 1 - 2 yrs for adults. Braces r used for re-setting

Hotdiamond: to avoid complications in the health of your tooth. It is advisable to visit your dentist at least every three months for check up. in naija most people visit the dentist only When they have problem with their tooth. Sad But true

Toothpaste won't help. If its recurrent there mite be a problem with the condyle, ligament or capsule (laxity) of his temporomandibular joint(likely causes)and dis usually require a surgical intervention i.e Eminectomy from a dentist specialized in oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. Buh if its not recurrent just follow your doctors instructions,u have nothing or less to worry about

Toothpaste is not the cure for bad breath as it were. You need to visit a dental clinic where a thorough examination will be done for you to determine the cause. It may be simple for instance the source is from the mouth, maybe you have a hole in your tooth or you have gum disease or you are not brushing your tongue which houses many odour producing bacteria. And then again the source of the odour maybe from the lungs or oesophagus. It may even be imagined. Do see a dentist first

When blood comes out while one is brushing does it mean that the teeth has infection?

I need an advise pls. Growing up I noticed that my right incisor (milk tooth) didn't leave for d permanent one to take its place. Den some years back I realised I had a growth behind d tooth. So I was forced to visit a dentist who took an xray den removed d milk tooth. After a while I visited d dentist again den took anoda xray which made d dentist realised d growth wasn't d permanent tooth as assumed earlier. D xray showed d permanent tooth far inside. So i removed d growth den settled for a denture after four months. Just few months ago, I started having pain, so I visited a different dentist dis time around who told me dat my permanent tooth moved to d surface and my denture is disturbing dat is why I feel so much discomfort. After taking anoda xray he noticed dat d tooth has no crown, it's a bad one according to him. Den he suggested I have a surgical extraction. My problem actually is I'm yet to go back cos I'm kinda scared of d pain d procedure will cause. So I'm asking a doctor, what other approach do u think will be a lot helpful and of minimal pain whatsoever? Thanks!

Any dentist that makes u feel pain in any procedure @ thiis time and age is not worth visiting. Change him asap

My younger brother often breed especially while brushing his teeth.

Kingspin: My younger brother often breed especially while brushing his teeth.

i tink he should change his toothbrush to a ''medium strenghth'' tooth brush...'' ask for a medium strength tooth brush in any good super market

samhay: Plz my broda woke up & yawned & could not close his mouth again

omo, this one na Gobe oo.

How wide did he open his mouth? I remember my parents do tell me not to open my mouth so wide again while I was a kid,because of one woman in our village in ur brotha's senario..I often open it so wide to yawn, that it makes a sound.

tell him to watch the wideness of his mouth when yawning....

@Op. Great work...I use hard brush,... Wisdom.....so my gums do bleed. I guess I'm use to it. I even feel my teeth aint clean yet till it bleed. I scrumb it real hard as well. .

Can you recommend a good softbrush?, because all these ₦200.00 own often bend after I use it once or twice..

Sir, Your Number Is Not Goin Thru.. Anyone Here??

Hello Doc, i have this oral issue that bothers me. It started few months ago with a metallic taste in my mouth and slight burning sensation on my tongue, it then progressed to some borders coloration(map like shape)on the tongue which changes in appearance, shape and position, and recently i started noticing some cracks on my tongue. In all, i experience no pain or any discomfort but i am worried and curious.

Hello there, I think you should see an oral pathologist(They should be available in teaching hospitals). They will carry out a 'biopsy' and tell you the exact condition and outline a treatment regimen. Do not delay much longer please. Goodluck.
