Hello, I've been to the dentist twice for a check-up. They did a DVT x-ray and a 2D x-ray for my wisdom teeth. However, I've noticed a significant swelling under my tongue that's very visible and palpable. Could it be cancer or something else? An important question: Would a tumor have been detected during the…
Hello, My friend (m26) had a gum transplant a week ago. Gum tissue was taken from the upper palate to be transplanted to the lower row of teeth. The whole procedure was performed under sedation, and he was prescribed painkillers and antibiotics as a precautionary measure. It's been a week now, and yet I still…
I'm having some molars extracted soon (oral surgery under general anesthesia), and I'd like to know what you ate during the first three days and the days afterward. When did I start chewing again? Is decaffeinated coffee with oat milk okay? Soft toast with liverwurst or egg salad? Or just baby food? I'd like to…
I have a bill from an oral surgeon for €200 and a bill from my dentist for €150. I receive a citizen's allowance, so I get some from the state, and my parents don't work. They're different at both dentists. The oral surgeon performed a root canal on me, and the other dentist will soon…
Hey dear ones, To be honest, I'm sitting here crying like a baby. In the evenings, the worry keeps coming back and this topic torments me unbelievably. My little son (1 1/2 years old) has had a lump on his palate since he was a newborn. At first, it was a pin-sized dot, then it…
Good evening everyone, I just had my wisdom tooth surgery today and will be taking 3-4 weeks off. I had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled. Striking and boxing will also take 6-8 weeks off. But what do you say, can I start BJJ, wrestling, and grappling again in 3 weeks with this head protection?
Hello, I had all my wisdom teeth removed six days ago. The lower ones had to be cut out. So far, I haven't had any major problems, except for a hard swelling on one side of my jawline. It hurts a little when I press on it, but nothing else. I'm going to the doctor…
Is it possible that cytokines are released during this process? The source has not yet been determined… Mercaptans and thioethers are significantly increased. Thanks!!
I'm having my wisdom teeth removed soon. They've already taken an x-ray to see if they really need to come out…will they take another x-ray afterward?
The question is, what's it like if you have, say, a neurological, in this case oral, problem. Let's take sialorrhea, the excessive production of saliva in the mouth, as an example. I couldn't find any results on Google. To counteract this, you stick atropine or scopolamine patches behind your ear to reduce saliva production. So,…
Dear community, I recently discovered this lump on my baby's palate (see photo). Of course I have a doctor's appointment, but I'm so nervous about it that I can't stop thinking 🥺. Do any of you know this / have experience with something similar? Thank you so much ❤️
Hello, my dears, My molar already underwent root canal treatment. Unfortunately, the lower part of the tooth has now become infected. The dentist has prescribed me antibiotics and referred me for a tooth extraction. Now to my question: Is there any other way to save this tooth? Are there any herbal remedies that can help…
