There are no signs.  If you wait till there are signs it's usually too late.  Regular check ups keep your dental work simple.\n\nLuck 2 U

Floss your teeth every day, too.  Once every 24 hours is enough.  Flossing gets the crud a brush can't reach, and that crud supports bacteria that can give you bad breath.

Call your dental Insurance company and tell them that the wait is jeopardizing your health and can they send the claim through as soon as possible.  Be sure and talk to a supervisor at the Insurance company, and write down the name of the person you spoke with,the day and time, and keep for your and your dentist's records.

=I would call the dental office because usually they will re-schedule the surgery if you have a cold, however I have also heard that if they can start you on antibiotics within 24 hours of the surgery you age good too go. Best of Luck and better call right away

It depends on the personality of the child.  If the child is very clingy to the parent or shy, I recommend 4 years old.  If they aren't shy, go ahead & try them at 3.  Don't push the child to do too much at the first couple of visits, going to the dentist is FUN!! If you make it seem like a scary place, the child will develop fears over nothing!!  I've worked on children as young as 3, doing fillings & such, & they love coming to see us because we make it fun for them.  I ALWAYS recommend that after the first visit or two,  let the child go in the room by themselves.  Children have a tendecy to act up more if a parent is there with them. Good luck

You can wait. Dentists have this thing where they try to "catch a cavity early" even if it's not serious. That's just more money they're putting in their pockets to have it filled. I brush, floss, and rinse after every meal everyday and when I went to the dentist last week, they just happened to find two cavities. My teeth have not been bothering me at all. Unless it starts to bother you, then you can probably wait.

Hello! I'm an NHS dentist.\nOn a typical day  (8.30 to 6) I will treat/ see around 25 patients, sometimes more. Some will just be coming in for check up and a clean (15mins for adults, 5ish for a young child), others for fillings (about 25- 30mins for an appointment, although you can get several done in that time). I will probably see a couple of patients who need dentures made (10-15mins per apppointment) and maybe some more complicated procedures such as root canal (endodntics, 45mins per appointment) or crown/ bridge work (also 45mins for the drilling, maybe 15 to fit the work).\n\nMost patients are lovely, but the few problems we get concern either unrealistic expectations of the patients, or money. I guess we don't ever really see people at their best as most are worried about real or imagined pain/expense, but most of the time as long as the dentist explains, doesn't hurt and the fillings stay in, people are happy!\n\nHope this helps.

I would not recommend putting off getting a filling if you have decay in your tooth.  If not treated the decay will only get larger and eventually spread into the nerve of the tooth causing infection.  If the decay reaches the nerve of your tooth, a mere filling will no longer be adequate... rather, you will have to have a root canal and a crown performed which are both quite costly procedures.  So, regardless of your personal reasons, get your tooth fixed as soon as possible.\n\nAs for recommended oral hygiene, you should be brushing 2-3 times per day using a soft toothbrush.  You should always be flossing at least once per day.

300 - 700.  Depends on the dentist and which treatment you go with .  The fastest is the most expensive where they do it in the office that day with light and chemical... and the other is whitener you have to take over weeks and leave on your teeth for 30 minutes at a time.

It's hard to say.  Need more info. on the work you need done.  Not only that, but all area's charge different prices.  \n\nYour best bet is to go to the dentist.  He/She should give you an oral exam and a full mouth series of x-rays to diagnose any problems.\n\n Usually a consult will be free if you plan on having the work done at that office.  A consult will consist of presenting your treatment plan to you, going over it (to make sure you understand why the work needs to be done), and also to discuss payment options.  The office I work in (like many offices) has an intraoral camera which takes still frames of problem areas.  This is a great way to show patients that work is necessary!  \n\nAs a dental assistant....I feel obligated to let you know that oral hygiene is important!  It not only effects your mouth....it can cause other damage to your body.  Brush atleast twice a day and floss once a day.  That is a start....b/c after having alot of work done in your mouth....you want to keep it that way.\n \nSorry I can't help out more than that.

your dentist can decide. i only had mine on for 11 months, but my friend had hers for 3 and 1/2 yrs. it depends on how much work needs to be done.
