Is it normal to have gum pain after getting crown?
It is possible and is dependent on where and how the Dr. designed the crown to fit on the tooth, the closer to the gingiva (gum) the more likely there will be some inflammation afterward. This is expected to resolve quickly with cautious home care. READ MORE

Why is my tooth sensitive to cold after a crown?
Cold sensitivity is often a response to trauma, yes even Dentistry is traumatic but the healthy tooth should recover and become less sensitive. All natural teeth should respond to cold normally but hypersensitivity = trauma. ** if the sensation doesn’t go away quickly (lingers for minutes) then there might be concerns over the health of the tooth.

How do you clean a tooth fissure?
By fissures I’m guessing you mean grooves and we call them anatomy- the way to clean properly is with a nice new toothbrush (regular or electric) as long as the bristles are straight; once the bristles are curved outward it’s pretty useless. READ MORE
How long does pain and swelling last after dentures?
If you are new to dentures and had extractions before the immediate placement of the dentures then an adjustment may need to be made soon, with anti inflammatories swelling will subside in a few days, healing will proceed dramatically over 7-14 days; frequent relines will help the fit and speed healing further; complete healing (bone) in 6 months. If no extractions but just new dentures then need to relieve any high spots (inside) and check / adjust the bite for stability- READ MORE

If a BAD taste and BAD breath is accompanied with fever and pain in the area it could well be osteitis or ‘dry socket’- need to be on antibiotics right away; and seek your Dr.’s follow-up care READ MORE
What is the best toothpaste for gum disease?
In truth the best toothpaste for gum disease (periodontitis) is the one you use 2x a day!! I like fluoride (sodium fluoride rather than stannous fluoride - less staining) soft bristle brushes (electric brushes better), floss and even a Water Pik. - AND 3-4 month periodontal. Check-ups and cleaning. READ MORE
How long does a root planing and scaling take?
RPC (Root Planing and Scaling) signifies Non Surgical Periodontal treatment (lots of tarter and inflammation) Treatment depends on the severity of the case (1 quadrant at a time = 4 appointments; Half mouth = 2 appointments etc.) This requires anesthetic and are a little longer and involved procedures than regular cleanings.

What is the best treatment for receding gums?
Surgical intervention may provide the most noticeable improvement but the usual reasons for recession are clenching and grinding habits followed by over aggressive home care READ MORE
Is it normal for gums to bleed after a crown?
Some crowns are fitted close to or even slightly under the level of the gum tissue so there may be irritation after treatment. Irritation many months afterward should be evaluated for possible sources of inflammation. READ MORE
How do they remove wisdom teeth under the gum?
The straightforward answer is surgery. Impacted 3rd molars (wisdom teeth) often require sedation and surgical intervention to safely remove them — easy removal = faster and less challenging recovery. READ MORE
