Well this is kind of weird but I was born and never have had enamal on my teeth and they rot easy I have had almost every tooth capped filled or something to that effect and i%26#039;m only 20. I recently moved to texas and my job does not offer dental insurance i only make 5.50 an hour and cant afford to just go now ive got a tooth that is broke to the point you can see the root and is very painful and another tooth that doing the same and my front tooth has broke. Then to top it off now the area around the broken teeth is swollen and my entire face is swollen and it is extremely painful to the point of tears to eat smile or even talk. Any one have a clue where to go to get free or cheep dental work or a place to get insurance that is really cheep or for extremely low income? and what is causing the swelling so bad?
Bad Teeth and extremely painful gums with swelling?
Check with your city%26#039;s health dept to see if they offer free dental clinics, or check to see if there are any dental schools close by to where you are.
Reply:you have to floss so your gums wont swell,
but really you have to see a dentist, get a job to pay for it, or get a job that covers dental insurance
Reply:Yea there is healthcare for those who are low income, do a web search on goverment free healthcare, low income health care dental for your state - you should be golden - Your local hospital can refer you to where to go also -- The swelling is an infection, so yea go get some antibiotics - You can go to the emergency room, they can%26#039;t refuse to help you so you can at least get some pain medication and antibiotics - plus get referred to the where to go to apply for the goverment health card or whatever its called
Reply:I%26#039;m not a dentist but you may have a case of gingivitis which can lead to rotting teeth and eventually if left untreated, teeth that will rot and fall out. You may want to check the local public health clinics in your area. They%26#039;ll treat you and your cost will depend upon how much you earn. They use what%26#039;s called a %26quot;sliding scale fee%26quot; to determine what you%26#039;ll pay. In some cases, it%26#039;ll cost you nothing.
Check the public health centers in your area. Good luck !
Reply:you can go to mexico
swelling can be caused from an abcessed tooth. you need to see a dentist or doctor soon, because people have died from infection in their teeth. be careful.
also, you can use neydent toothpaste, and ionic toothbrush and amosan

Losing Baby Teeth?
My son%26#039;s bottom teeth are growing in uneven and they are making his back teeth push together and now my son keeps thinking he has something stuck in his teeth and now he is saying sometimes that his teeth hurt.
Has anyone else had this happen with new teeth?
Also He is 6 and hasn%26#039;t lost anymore teeth.
When do they lose there front teeth?
Losing Baby Teeth?
I don%26#039;t think it is unusual he hasn%26#039;t lost more teeth. I seem to remember there being a long time between losing the bottom and the top teeth - maybe as much as a year - and then another long period before more teeth were lost. Now, at 10, in the past month, he has lost 7 teeth! If you are concerned about the spacing and he is having pain, it may not be a bad idea to consult your dentist. Perhaps there are adult teeth coming in, or something else going on that is causing him pain. The dentist can tell a lot about what is going on by doing x-rays - ours told us our son would be losing a bunch of teeth all at once and soon, and she was right on the mark :) Good luck!
Reply:depending when he got them depends on when they will loose them...if they are all jammed in there right now %26amp; he doesn%26#039;t have many adult teeth, you may want to take him to the dentist to get some ideas. they may try a retainer to help with the comfort for him.
Reply:usually around age 6 is when they lost their front 2 teeth. Sometimes they need to be pulled. You may want to get him in sometime soon to see a dentist.
Reply:He should be losing his front teeth anytime. If he%26#039;s having a problem then you might want to take him to the dentist. If there%26#039;s not enough room for his new teeth they can probably go ahead and pull a baby tooth.
Reply:My son is almost seven and just lost his front teeth. I think that if he has pain, it would be worth checking on with a dentist. They do xrays that help you know what is coming and if they need help to get there.
Reply:Well I can only tell my tell. My son is 9 years old. He just got six baby teeth pulled at the dentist because they would not fall out on there on. He has two more teeth has to come out.
Before his next appointment in Sept or they will pull those to. Th dentist asked me your son is not a fan on pulling his own teeth. I told him no. Now I have a nephew who will pull his teeth out in a minute. It will happen soon enough on those front teeth. You know that%26#039;s usually the first ones to go.
Reply:My daughter lost her two bottom front teeth at the age of 6, almost 7. The new teeth were completely grown in before those two teeth fell out though so they were way behind. I went to the dentist and he said there is really nothing they can do about it at this point and he said in general they won%26#039;t pull baby teeth. So we just had to wait, they did fall out and the adult teeth have moved forward some but still aren%26#039;t completely in line with the rest of the teeth. The dentist said that just because they are crooked now it doesn%26#039;t mean they will be crooked forever. My friend%26#039;s son has really crooked teeth, at the age of 8 he had to wear what they referred to as an %26quot;appliance%26quot; for a few weeks, it%26#039;s all to start straightening his teeth and eventually get him ready for braces. My daughter is 7 1/2 and she just now lost one of her top front teeth, it%26#039;s been loose forever, I%26#039;m so glad it finally came out! Good Luck.
Reply:Get him to a dentist if he%26#039;s having pain. My youngest daughter%26#039;s permanent teeth came in before she lost her baby teeth and she was in agonizing pain from it because her teeth were being pushed all around. The dentist pulled 4 of her teeth and the pain was immediately relieved. He explained that some child%26#039;s teeth do not come in to the appropriate spot (misplaced) therefore they do not push out the baby teeth correctly.
Reply:You%26#039;ve got to get him in to see a dentist, so they can intervene if necessary.
Reply:Take him to the dentist.

Getting my teeth fixed PLEASEEEE READ!!!!?
getting my teeth fixed (closing a major gap) and this is what is going to happen -
-filing down of an obstructing tooth from the bottom
-filing the crookered tooth into a V
-placing a cap on the crookered tooth
-totally filing down of a tooth that has grown on the inside of my gums (this is my adult tooth as my baby tooth is remaining at the front)
with possible numerous root canals to avoid future pain
i havent had any dental procedures before so my question is...
IS THIS GOING TO HURT?? im scared!!
and how long is it likely to last??
any help or advise is much appreciated!
Getting my teeth fixed PLEASEEEE READ!!!!?
it probably will take a while they may do it on different days and the only thing you will feel is the antistesia in the shot going into your gums SLIGHTLY but you will feel it and then the pressure on your teeth but it wont hurt like your thinking
Reply:i hope it does that might make my nipples hard and sooo excited
Reply:Let your dental professional know of your anxiety...it%26#039;s very normal to have fears since you have never been thru this before. They will give you local anesthesia...so you should feel no more than pressure

Will my teeth go back to being straight like they were after I get my wisdom teeth pulled???
I am going to see a dentist in a couple of days to determine if I should get my wisdom teeth pulled since very recently my teeth are becoming more and more crooked and in the last 3-4 days even painful.
I%26#039;m really worried about how they are becoming crooked (it%26#039;s like the bottom front row of my teeth are %26quot;shuffling like cards%26quot;). This has only from what I have noticed started recently, like in the past few weeks. If I get my wisdom teeth pulled since my teeth haven%26#039;t been crooked for very long will they slowly go back to the way they were?
Also, how long does it take for teeth to become crooked, can it happen fast or does it take a while?
Please help!
Will my teeth go back to being straight like they were after I get my wisdom teeth pulled???
i had a tooth pulled.. it made my front teeth go forward, not back to normal.. need braces now
i hope it will be reversed for you
Reply:don%26#039;t worry because my friend pull them out she lost a lot of bold but ya it dos heart you might have to put braces
Reply:Your dentist must have seen you before deciding to extract your wisdom tooth. There must be lack of space in your jaw to accomodate your teeth in the jaw. After extraction the condition may improve or may not. Need to take measurements before any suggestion. So first remove the wisdom tooth then your dentist may decide what to do.
Good luck

Reply:A lot of research have shown that wisdom teeth do not cause front teeth to be crooked, n once crooked, they prob wont straighten unless with braces. Crooked teeth most likely are caused by a jaw too small to accommodate the teeth. N teeth do not move that fast.. it take quite a while. :) N braces dun hurt dat much. i had my braces out 2 mths ago n i didnt feel much pain really.. hehehe
Reply:Mine were pulled in my 20%26#039;s. Now 50%26#039;s and now my teeth are starting to drift apart.
If they bother you, have them pull them, if not, leave them. New braces now, no one can tel you%26#039;re wearing them. BUT $$$!
More the gaps, more the $$$
Then again, some older movie stars don%26#039;t want fake looking teeth so straight and white, %26quot;%26quot;its not natural they say.%26quot;%26quot;
Unless you are on a stage or in films or modeling, don%26#039;t worry about a little drift or crookedness.

White Teeth?
I have braces and I really want white teeth
my teeth have always been yellowy so I%26#039;m working on brushing
right now im using arm and hammer extra whitening
just started so i cant really say
i cant use white strips or any whitening thing either
my friends have white teeth but a couple of my friends who have had braces have literally solid white teeth while some just like like translucent white teeth..
what is your trick for white teeth? :)
White Teeth?
You have a dentist in the family and here you are on this silly forum getting answers from some people who know pretty much nothing.....weird huh?
There are NO toothpastes that will lighten the color of your teeth. They can only remove surface stains despite all of their claims [toothpastes are considered a cosmetic item and, as such, aren%26#039;t regulated]. The only way to lighten the color is with the Whitestrips [which you can%26#039;t use with braces] or with custom dental trays and professional materials [which you can%26#039;t do with braces either]. Sooo, your best bet, until the braces are off, is to just keep your teeth clean with your toothbrush and floss and go to the dentist for regular cleanings.
Reply:Your friends probably just had their dentist do something, somekind of whitening thing on their teeth XD I forgot what%26#039;s it called, anyways try this...
6 teaspoons baking soda
1/3 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons glycerin
15 drops peppermint or wintergreen extract
Mix together into a paste and store in a container you can get a toothbrush into. It%26#039;s very fresh tasting, though a little salty.
Hope it works...

Having 4 Wisdom Teeth Extracted Along with 5 other teeth...?
In a little less than two weeks, I am going to be having oral surgery to have all four of my wisdom teeth removed... one has already grown out of the gums, one is still in the gums, one is impacted and one is beginning to break through. Along with having my four wisdom teeth removed, I am having the tooth next to each of my wisdom teeth removed and a tooth three away from the wisdom tooth that has already grown out of the gums... I will be under IV sedation and will have stitches that dissolve. I am wondering what my recover time may be for having so many teeth removed at the same time. And, how easy will I have to take it on talking? I am planning to have four days of recovery after the surgery from work. I work in a juvenile detention center and at times I have to raise my voice... as well as occasionally having to talk a lot. During intakes, we have a lot of paperwork to go through with a juvenile. How quickly will I be able to raise my tone and talk for extended time?
Having 4 Wisdom Teeth Extracted Along with 5 other teeth...?
With having 4 to 9 teeth extracted, recovery time will take longer than 4 days. You will be quite sore, and not able to raise your voice.
Give yourself 6 to 7 days, even with pain medications. Then re-asses how you feel.
Good luck!
Reply:I had my wisdom teeth out about 1 month ago. Under sedation you will probably go home and rest for a couple hours after. You will be so drugged up you won%26#039;t care how you feel. Most Dental Surgeons will prescribe a pain killer for you, so have a friend pick that up while you sleep. You should stay pain free for a couple days then it wears off.
Just wondering why they are removing those molars? Usually they don%26#039;t take teeth out unless they are decayed beyond belief. Check into that. Good Luck
Reply:Sounds somewhat similar to what I had done, except mine was all 4 wisdom teeth, and only 1 additional, but, close enough, I also had IV sedation.... same as you will.
Pretty much, as soon as the wounds stop bleeding you%26#039;ll be able to take the gauze out of your mouth and talk. For me, when I got home it had stopped bleeding, some have bleeding for longer, but if you do, you can also try applying a used teabag to the wound, and theres something in the tea that will help it heal.
Other than that, as long as you%26#039;re on painkillers, you should be able to talk normally without any problems. The problems come when you%26#039;re off painkillers, since youll have an extremely limited motion of your jaw, and it will hurt to move it. I would suggest trying to stretch it out as much as you can while the painkillers are working, since that will help with your range of motion. I noticed, that full range of motion in my jaw didnt come back for about a month (give or take a week), so that could limit how loud you can talk comfortably, but, it pretty much comes down to.... with painkillers (i was taking vicodin and ibuprofen) youll be fine, without, might be a month or so.

My two front teeth are fake and huge.and i still have my real teeths im only 18 years old this is how it all?
started.when i was 8 years old i was riding a beycicle and crashed into a pole and my 2 front teeths fell off, so my mom rushed me to the dentist and i was there for like 4 hours for them to make me 2 fake tooths and when they put it on they were huge and they are not like those removable tooths that you can put on and off, there stuck. anyway when i had my real tooth i had a gap between and when they put the fake there was no gap anymore because they were fake teeth.is it possible that my dentist can put my real tooth back on becuase i look ugly when i smile and when i laugh i cover my mouth infront of ppl and i hate that i want a nice smile and not act wierd when covering my mouth and laugh.can i dentist put my real tooth back and let it stick there for ever acting like it never came out.i really want my small teeth back i hate those huge chipmonk tooth.i dont feel normal when i think about it.when i speak to girls they like me bcuz im good looking %26amp; when i smile they look at it funy
My two front teeth are fake and huge.and i still have my real teeths im only 18 years old this is how it all?
You%26#039;re pretty much screwed. Maybe you%26#039;ll think twice next time, before riding into a pole.
Reply:your real teeth are long gone.Have other implants put in that are smaller.
Reply:Your dentist is the best person to discuss your front teeth problem. I can tell you, working on an eight year old who has come in with two front teeth broken is a night-mare for most dentists. It%26#039;s a blessing that he even tried to build up your own teeth from scratch, instead of recommending pulling both teeth and giving you a plastic removable denture with two fake teeth on it. That you would have learned to hate, I assure you.
Ask him to check the nerves in both teeth first, then ask for replacement crowns to be made using porcelain, if everything checks out fine with the nerves. Otherwise root canal treatment may be needed before crowns (caps) can be done.
You and he will work together to get the exact look you are looking for as pertains to color, shape, length, gap or no gap, etc.
Hope this answer helps. Take your parent with you to discuss costs. take care.
Reply:I am assuming you have a permanent bridge in place if this incident happened 10 years ago.
There are a couple of options:
Implants - which once the surgical portion is placed, you have to wait approx 6 months for healing before putting on a new smaller tooth/teeth (some newer style implants require only 3 months of healing, but that is up to the Oral Surgeon to decide on how long to wait to %26quot;load%26quot; the implants
Flipper or partial denture - a flipper can be made with smaller teeth and more of a space in between the teeth, but your bridge would have to be cut off and you may acquire a lisp for a while, while you get used to wearing a flipper/partial.
