I feel my wisdom teeth coming out (and I have been getting occasional fevers) — I even feel the ridge of one of them. I’m not entirely sure if it’s impacted or not, I’m getting an x-ray in a couple of days at my dentist. How quickly (if it does) can a wisdom tooth move neighboring teeth? I have never had braces and my teeth are straight.

My gums and cheek became swollen because of a toothache I went to the dentist and they said to take my medicine but it seems like my face is getting even more swollen. How do I reduce the swelling quick?

I had a mild case of gingivitis (but no dentist in my area has an open appointment) so I started vigorously brushing, flossing, and using mouthwash. It has caused a lot of bleeding and pain, but I saw an improvement in my gums and their color. However, now my gums hurt like hell! It has been four days and I am popping ibuprofen every four hours to suppress the pain. How long does that pain usually last for? I have not been able to eat anything solid for a week now.

I went to my dentist for a cleaning on Wednesday, and he found two tiny cavities hidden in the crevices of my teeth. He booked me to get them worked on next Wednesday, the 23rd. He showed me a model of a tooth and said that the cavity was near the surface and most likely not at the nerve yet.

What I’m wondering is, how fast will the cavity grow? If it’s small now, could it become serious (as in root canal serious) by time I see him again?

When you have a cavity on one of your front teeth, how does the dentist fill it? because the front teeth are like, thinner. and would you even notice it after it got filled?

I was just wondering. Haha.
Lol, and I don’t have a cavity on any of my front teeth. I was just wondering.
