You can talk to either your dentist and they might recommend an oral surgeon to go to so that they can check your wisdom teeth.  Even though it isn't causing any pain they might recommend having them taking out because it causes your teeth to shift (at least thats what happened to me).

call your dentist immediately could be an allergic reaction to medications.  or the pain medication could be your problem.  none the less nothing to mess around with.

You might have a bad tooth and not know it. See a dentist. Your teeth can also bleed from brushing to hard.

I know you don't want to hear this, but you must see a dentist.  You prob. have an abscess that needs attention. Putting off treatment by a dentist can put your health in danger, as well as your life.  Not getting help now will only make it worse.  I have once suffered a toothache from a hairline fracture in a wisdom tooth.  It was over the weekend and I thought I was going to go crazy from the pain.  No amount of Advil, oil of cloves, or any other remedy is going to help when it get's really bad.  I would never wish this kind of pain on anyone. There is nothing you can really do externally to help keep it at bay.  You need to have the infected tooth either extracted or opened up to let the infection drain out to relieve the pressure.  You also need an antibiotic to help get rid of the infection.  Don't wait, go as soon as possible.

Not after a month has passed.  Go back to the dentist before it leads to further problems.

You need to cancel your appointment... That is way too much for your mouth.. You are not properly healed from your oral surgery. Give it 6 weeks before anymore trauma in your mouth. Plus your heart does not need anymore numbing pain medication going thru your system this soon....

I had been in an accident that left me with shattered front teeth. I was self-conscious about it. Before I could get them fixed, some jackass (a complete stranger) walked up to me and very coldly said, "Your teeth look sooooo stupid. Why do you walk around looking like that? You'd better get those teeth fixed RIGHT NOW because your f**ked-up face is making me want to puke." I was really embarrassed. Did he think that I didn't realize that my dental work was messed up? There are little things called "appointments" that you have to make with doctors to get things done, you know. I had to wait until the dental clinic could get me in for that large a repair job, because it was going to be a rather long ordeal. Anyway, that comment was the absolute last thing I needed to hear.

Friday is one of the few holidays my company observes.  Howerver, there are many offices who like to keep a skeleton crew on Friday, day after turkey day.  To me, it's a waste of time unless you have a lot of filing or work to catch up.  The phones won't be ringing because most people (non-retail) are off on Friday.

I'm assuming you have a crown, and some of the porcelain has broken/chipped off? Is that correct....... \n\nIf so, you'll be fine over the holiday break... you wont have any pain, due to the crown it self hasnt broken. NOT to mention, you've had a Root Canal done. Your safe... just wait till dental office is reopened, and go see him. You can have a new crown done, if your worried about the looks. If your not worried about the looks, you'll be fine. Also, if theres a sharp point anywhere from where its broken, they can smooth it up for you. BUT, my opinion if the crown is still intact and isnt causing you problems and such... leave it. It wont hurt anything  by doing so. \n\nAlso, if its a NEW crown (up to a year old), your doc should replace it, for free. If its older than that, the cost will most likely be on you!

You need to go back to your dentist and make him fix this! NOW!\n\nIt should only have been open for 3 to 5 days.

Yes for these teeth you have prob. learned to late.  You can't floss every couple of days, it has to be everyday.  If you don't want more decay and rotten teeth, then floss everyday. You need to have these teeth extracted, abscessed teeth are nothing to play with, you can get seriously ill, or even die if you don't have them taken care of.  You need to learn to brush consistently and the right way.  You are not brushing as well on the lower because you are afraid of hitting the decayed teeth. You have to use a soft toothbrush and use small circular strokes with very little pressure.  You have used too much pressure on the lower, which has caused the recession.  I would suggest an electric toothbrush.  Flossing:  go in between each tooth wrap one side of the tooth like a "C" shape and wiggle up and down a few times and then do this to the other tooth in front, going all of the way around the mouth.  Again you don't have to use a lot of pressure, you don't want to injure or cut the gum tissue.  Decay is caused by bacteria and food debris which turns into acid, this causes decay.  Gingivitis and periodontitis are gum conditions.  The problem is you, you have to do the work in order to have a healthy mouth.  I know this is blunt, but you have to wake up and brush as much as possible, floss everyday, and see a dentist about your problem teeth.  Educate yourself on home care and about tooth decay and gum disease.  Use your search engine for help.

try goiing to a dentist

Lots of people are VERY frightened of the dentist. There are dentists who specialize in treating them. Some may even prescribe a little bit of a relaxing or calming drug to take before your visit. (Of course someone else would have to drive.) \n\nYour family doctor might know of one, or might even willing to prescribe that kind of drug for the visit. You could ask the dentist to do NOTHING\nbut look and talk the first time. (You're the boss.)\n\nAfter the first few visits, your level of fear will drop amazingly fast. Really! So do what it takes to get started, and I promise, it will get easier.

Whenever someone says this to the doc I work for, my response is, "And people wonder why dentists have a high suicide rate."  Don't worry, tomorrow will be better.  Just keep thinking about all the folks you are helping!   Always remember the patients who say that they can finally smile again with confidence thanks to you & your staff.
