Although I am not familiar with this, the problem isn't with your teeth - its in the gums.  Try proper brushing techniques.

1) The FIRST thing that comes to mind is the medicine or vitamins that you are taking.. when did the metallic taste start? Did you start taking any particular medicine at that time.. did you start taking Any particular vitamin at that time?\n\n2)A possible solution might be to eat some yogurt or buttermilk containing live cultures.  This will help restore a normal bacterial colony to the GI tract and get rid of the symptoms... I have heard of this being done before.\n\n3) Another thing that comes to mind but doubt if it is done nowadays.. long ago(not too long ago) dentists would do fillings with mercury and this would leave a metallic taste in the mouth....\n\nAll in All... take a look at the medicinal angle.. Did you recently start taking something new???  I wish there was a way to find out what you did to figure out what was wrong but with these Yahoo answers.. theres does not seem to be any way to follow up

Sounds like a really bad case of gingivitis to me.   You probably needs to rinse with a salt water solution several times a day.  Use a soft tooth brush.  See your dentist again.

yellow orange discolorations on the tongue side of his upper teeth is the hall mark of baby bottle tooth decay.  If your child has teeth they should see a dentist.

I was always told that it was the 1st sign of gengivitis. Try using a small amount of peroxide mixed with your mouthwash. It will bubble up (naturally) but it will help.

It is very rare to actually get shards of amalgam that get lodged into your tongue when they are being drilled out; however, stranger things have happened!  Try rinsing your mouth thoroughly and see if the pieces still remain.  Often small pieces can be left and just adhere to the tongue and soft tissues.  If they are still there, call your dentist tomorrow and have it checked out.  Leaving them there will cause an irritation that could get worse.  It they are stuck in there, your dentist will be able to easily remove them with small Sterile pliers.

If you regularly use an antibacterial mouthwash, then that could actually be what is causing the spots/fuzz. It disturbs/changes "the natural balance of mouth flora." (According to this month's (March 13, 2006) issue of First magazine, (page 26).) It says to discontinue use of mouthwash for 10 days, while continuing with brushing your teeth and tongue (with a soft bristle toothbrush, gently back and forth 15 times. (Your tongue should be pink and back to normal at the end of this 10 days...)Then, it says that you can go back to using mouthwash ONCE a day. I hope that helps to relieve any worries you have and solves the problem!

Cavities need three things to form: Bacteria, Sugar and Your Teeth!  It sounds like your mouth already has the bacteria inside of it (and it sounds like you might also have teeth!).  Because you already have two of the factors, you need to decrease the amount of sugar you take in.  Every time you eat something sugary, the environment in your mouth becomes acidic because the bacteria uses the sugar as food and produces an acid that causes your teeth to become decayed.  The more times you eat sugary things in a day, the more time your mouth is acidic and the more chance you're giving for the acid to make holes in your teeth.  Thus, reduce your sugar intake or at least decrease the amount of times you have sugar per day.  Sipping on soda all day long or grazing on candy can really cause a problem!  Lastly, keep up the diligent brushing every time you eat any sugar.  Good luck!

See your dentist.  You could possibly have periodontal (gum) disease which causes severe halitosis (bad breath).

Cracks at the side of the mouth aren't all that normal, they can be a sign of anaemia, particularly if they look like this;\nhttp://www.dentistry.leeds.ac.uk/biochem/lectures/nutrition/Intro/angular.jpg

There's sometimes a natural small space in the back of your mouth. It normally goes away pretty soon. Retainers (unless they're specially made) won't do anything.

looks like your on the beginnings of gingivitis..lasting bad breath is one of the symptoms.  When youre brushing..actually use a tongue scraper and start as far back as you can in your mouth.  Should help, along with like Listerine..for the bactereia

Yes, they will stop hurting.  Our tongues actually "fill in" and conform to the space they have over time.  Your tongue WILL adapt to it's new environment, you will start speaking better, and it will stop hurting.  For now, there is a special orthodontic wax you can use on the "hot-spots" where your tongue is particularly sore or cut even.  Call the dentist offic to find out about it.  Especially important to keep teeth/braces very clean since when you put the wax on, you are also trapping in any food particles or plaque, which will accelerate decay/cavities.

If I were you, I go see a doctor now. It is not a good thing to have red spots in the mouth area. Better be safe than be sorry later.

Frequent flus, mild body aches, growth of hair like structures on the tongue.
