Dentists in the house please I need your help, sometimes ago I accidentally chewed stone while eating beans prepared by me, and ever since I have developed severe tooth ache that I couldn't chew anything with that region of the teeth, I endured it for a whole year...fast forward to last week the pain became severe, the only option I had was to remove it, though it wasn't actually shaking but it ached seriously. And So I removed it at last.

This week same thing happened on the other region of the teeth and at same spot as the other and I can't chew anything with that region without feeling some sharp pain, pls help a brother.. I don't want to remove this one again. what can I do, I am a student

Stop taking sugar and milk.

Desist from drinking cold or chilled water and cold drinks

Mix a tiny teaspoon of salt in warm (not hot) water and gaggle Morning and last thing at night. Don't swallow.

Take antibiotics like cyprofloxaxin and Flagyl but with doctors prescription.

If you do these you won't experience toothache or tooth extraction for life.

There is a particular sensodyne toothpaste that can correct it. You should be fine after using a pack.

uhmmm how do i give u the leaf that cures toothache now? I'm in Akwa ibom currently and the leaf is abundant here, i have never seen that plant in another state

I don't know the English name either

Snap it and upload here. Someone will identify it.

Op, please see a dentist.

Don't suffer and still have to extract the tooth later.

Most people who use all sorts of herbs, petrol, hydrogen peroxide still end up in the dental surgery, and will complain about costs, ignoring all the money spent on herbs.

The treatment depends on how badly fractured the tooth is.

*If the fracture isn't that bad and it is possible to save the tooth, you can have a root canal therapy done (you can read about this) and then crown the tooth though the procedure is expensive anywhere (government or private hospital)*

If the tooth can't be saved, I will advice you just have an extraction.

It is honestly not easy, you must be scared but most drugs and all only offer temporary relief.

Also, ask your dentist about preventive measures so you don't have a similar issue again.

Avoid chewing hard foods, brush twice daily(morning and night before bed) with a medium bristled brush(not hard).

Your teeth may be weak, some may have hairline fractures and other issues already, these are the things you need to sort and you can also go for a dental check up once in a while(shouldn't exceed 2,000 in a year once you have a card)

you should NEVER remove a tooth, and instead simply fix it.... go see a proper dentist!

You can try our product, Norland toothpaste

For the Norland toothpaste call or chat me 07061812663

There is nothing absolute in medicine.

This is to correct the notion you have about extracting teeth.

In saner climes, prevention of dental diseases, conservative and restorative dental treatments are the mainstay of treatment.

Here in Nigeria, most patients present very late when teeth can't be treated and will need extractions to get rid of the pain and infection.

Reasons for late presentation include;

Dental fear/anxiety, fear of pain, cost of treatment.

Most people would rather buy herbs, visit pharmacists, buy 'fix-it-all' toothpastes that provide temporary relief. You will be amazed when you hear what people put in their mouths to get rid of toothache, even petrol!

Then when the tooth breaks, has an abscess or pain is unbearable they run to a dentist, claim treatment costs are expensive, ask why they need to pay for cards bla bla bla.
