3 teeth pulled out?

i had 3 baby teeth pulled out yesterday ( the adult teeth had grown already) well 1 came out completely and 2 came out about 3/4. its is all red and my gums are like halfway up my teeth like its swolen. how long does this take to go down? i got them pulled out at about 4:10 and its 6:40 the next day.

3 teeth pulled out?
A few days.





I had 4 teeth taken out so that I could get my brace, it took a few days for it to calm down and be able to eat solid foods again.
Reply:what do you mean 2 came out 3/4 s? did they extract them or not? I think you mean that your adult teeth were already emerging underneath.....keep an eye on the swelling...any sign of infection go back....meanwhile, wash mouth out with boiled water that u let cool down and add some salt....do this after food....careful brushing - avoid the area inflamed,,,,,asprin is not good...thins blood may lead 2 bleeding, use paracetamol based pain killer...should go down soon - call dentist and ask if u are really worried...

I'm 14 and my teeth are so loose they're about to start falling out. Now what do I do?

The dentist said they're all my adult teeth, which I pretty much figured. But he also said most of my front teeth probly aren't saveable and a lot of the rest are doubtful. It's from advance gum disease he said comes from a variety of things, like hormone changes, and other stuff at my age, and not brushing very good or flossing and whatever. I know I probly could have done a lot to keep my teeth in better shape like brush better or whatever, but now that they'll be coming out very soon one way or another, is it like a really big turn off for guys? I mean worse than bad looking teeth? or the same as bad looking teeth.? I already have really bad looking teeth, so I know most guys are turned off by them. what will happen when they fall out or get pulled out tho? What will guys think then?

i am also 14 and though noone enjoys toothless people, you might consider dentures for childern
Reply:You need to have you parents check their insurance to see if dental implants are covered. If they are then consider implants. See your dentist again soon and discuss with him what options are available to help you and also what he needs you to do to help protect the teeth you still have.
Reply:Why are you asking this question again?
Reply:Get false ones and don't tell them unless they ask...what made you at such a young age, lose your teeth ??? Bad teeth are a turn off no matter what your age. Sorry...
Reply:consult to your parents.....
Reply:I have moderate periodontitis. I have a similar problem and now I have the same fears! I hope that I don't lose all of them! But, you should be talking about this with your dentist. There are porcelin veneers that you can have put in! Expensive but they look and feel like real teeth!
Reply:You need to take large quantities of vitamin C several times a day. By large I mean a total of 10 grams per day or more and not miss a day for at least a year or more.


Worked for me by following the advice of the late Nobel prize winning Dr. Linus Pauling.
Reply:I am a periodontist assistant... You need to brush at a 45 degree angle starting at your gums and floss getting under the gums. You can get treatment go to a gum specialist. it is not attractive to have no teeth and people can't keep dentures in. You can get treatment. I have seen people come in with loose teeth and the doctor has done wonders for him. A regular Dentist cannot save your teeth a Periodontal Dentist can... It is worth it. SOme people have surgery which sounds like oh my god. but it really is not bad... People say they do not have pain really...
Reply:well , brush,floss,and use mouthwash every morning and night this might help prevent your teeth from getting to loose.massage your gums lghtly with your toothbrush but not to hard.if they get any worse go back to your dentist and explain ALL about whats happening to your teeth and ask him what he advises.if he/she dosen't know you might want to change dentists.

Dental question about milk teeth and braces?

A 15 yo has got 2 milk teeth (middle of the lower jaw, left and right side) where an xray supposedly showed that there wont be "adult" teeth replacing them.


The dentist suggests extracing the milk teeth and intends to use braces for pulling other teeth into the gap.


To me that seems a bit strange, esp. since these teeth will be used for chewing and have to take a lot of pressure for the rest of their life not being up straight after being pulled over...





Has anybody heard of a similar procedure being done already, or would anybody know where I could get more info on this?

Dental question about milk teeth and braces?
Very common orthodontic procedure. Lots of times orthodontists will have the teeth that your 15 yo is missing removed to make space in overcrowding situations.





The teeth won't "pull over". The entire tooth will move forward, crown and root. The space will close completely.





There's a slight chance, it depends on our 15 yo's bite, that the orthodontist may recommend pulling the opposing upper teeth that match the missing lower ones to maintain a perfect bite.





The orthodontist that you choose should have before and after pictures of similar cases to show you to put your mind at ease.
Reply:There are many orthodontists who I refer to who practice this way. Many people need to have the adult counterparts of those baby teeth extracted to make more room, and then braces put on after. Your child is lucky, in a way, that those particular teeth are recommended to be extracted. Even when baby teeth are retained into adulthood, they very often are lost and need to be replaced anyway. If they are removed and the space is closed with braces, this may be the best alternative. Take your child to a different orthodontist for a 2nd opinion if you'd like, but it sounds like standard practice to me. Best of luck.

Did your child's teeth do this?? Please help. I am concerned.?

My daughter's bottom teeth protrude over her top teeth (underbite?) She only has four teeth on top and three on the bottom so far but when she closes her mouth, her top teeth are completely covered by her bottom ones. She has no trouble eating and no problem with her speech (just starting to talk, and what she says is very clear). My husband asked our neighbour who is a dentist about it and he said it is not a problem but I would like to know if this has happened to your child and if the problem corrected itself with time or when the adult teeth came in. Thank you for your help.

Did your child's teeth do this?? Please help. I am concerned.?
There is no need to concern yourself at this age (2yo?) - it is too early for any treatment.


When she has turned 7 and has had her adult 1st molars come thru at the back, then take her for an orthodontic assessment. They will be able to give you some idea of where she's going and possible treatment options.
Reply:My kids teeth were not like that, but I would listen to the Dentist, he is the edcuated one in this department.
Reply:If the dentist says it isn't a problem and she isn't having trouble eating, then I wouldn't worry about it yet. How old is she? Two-ish?





My baby didn't have an underbite when her teeth came in, but I've heard that some young ones can have an underbite phase that goes away with time.
Reply:Your daughter definitely has an under bite and there are two things you can do





1. Take your daughter to an orthodontist and get her braces at the age of 9 or 10 because at that age, her bones are still growing and the braces could shape the jaw/bone structure properly, fixing the under bite.





2. If you don't braces, she would have to get jaw surgery where they they push her jaw back so the top and bottom can meet properly.





I think braces is the better choice, but make sure that you treat this problem early and not later.
Reply:Keep an eye on it as she gets older. There is really nothing you can do at that age. It is very good that you have a dentist neighbor, I wish I did. I currently have an underbite and have had it since I was about 8 or 9. They gave me headgear to fix it, which it did, but took it off too soon and my underbite came back. I got braces on when I was 13 and now at the age of 17 still have them on, and currently waiting for my jaw surgery this summer, right after graduation. :( My problem is that I have an under-developed upper jaw so they are going to move it forward during the surgery.


Best of luck to your daughter! I hope it goes away but if not, get to the orthodontist when she is a little older.

Im geting teeth pulled and im realy freaked out please help.?

Alright I need some help. On Monday im having 2 teeth pulled. There adult teeth and there my top molers. They are mostly broken down to the gum and my dentist is calling this dentil surgery. Im 15 years old and have never had a tooth pulled I no it will hurt but how much and do you think theyl give me gas, a shot or put me to sleep. Iv never had a tooth pulled how do they do it. Will they give me mediction afterwerds and are there any special things I need to do before or after surgery. Please help me out i am very nervious.

Im geting teeth pulled and im realy freaked out please help.?
I had four done in one sitting. It's not so bad. They will likely give you sleepy juice in needle form. They use a topical anesthetic too so you won't feel much. It does not hurt at all. Just a little pressure and a sore stomach from swallowing blood. Just enjoy the days of ice cream afterward. Nothing to worry about.;
Reply:I got all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled and it didnt hurt a bit its just wierd cause you can feel everything but it doesnt hurt cause of the pain shot! I didnt even have to take the pain meds afterwards but be aware afterwards youll be sleepy and take a nap you might wake up to a blood stained pillow and it freaks people out but dont worry about it!
Reply:They will give you gas or a shot, so it won't hurt. You might feel a little stick if they give you a shot, but if they do that, they will put a numbing agent on it first.





Just remember to close your eyes before they start working and don't look over at all the tools, you will be fine.
Reply:they give you really good drugs, you probably won't eat for a day or two but almost everybody has their wisdom teeth pulled, it's not a big deal
Reply:Its actually not too bad. I had it done with just novicane and was just fine.





I asked for no gas...cant stand the stuff.





The procedure was done so fast I hardly realized it.





It did bleed a little for about 2-3 hours. Pain was very minor. 1 advil was able to relieve the pain.
Reply:dont worry, dentists are a millions times easier to bare with while going there for stuff like this





they'll either give you 'happy gas', medication, or a shot that will help numb the mouth so you wont even feel it.





you'll be fine, its just fun to get put to sleep w/ that happy gas, and having your mouth go numb is cool cause it feels so funny that you cant feel it





so dont worry, it'll be over and done with with no pain at all
Reply:Don't worry, You really will be fine. You won't feel a thing. I got my widsom teeth pulled. It's such a trip. My dentist gave me a mask (maybe laughing gas?? can't remember, but doesn't really make you laugh, just makes you go to sleep) and told me to count backwards from 100. I got to 98 and I was out. When I woke up I was groggy and later my mouth hurt, but it was fine. Not EVEN as scary as it sounds. They really do know what they're doing. You might get a shot beforehand, but it won't be that bad. It's like a filling shot. Just close your eyes. Good luck! I hope it's not too bad for you.
Reply:Stay calm and don't freak out. It's not that bad. You'll probably get a shot or maybe 2 to numb the pain. Just a little stick. Doesn't hurt that bad at all. Not as bad as the toothache. Afterwards you'll probably get a perscription for anti-biotics to keep infection out and you'll probably get some good pain killers too. It's been my experience (i've had 3 pulled) that you might need one or two of the pain killers that day and then you won't need then anymore. Just remember it's mostly in your head and the dentist knows what he's doing.
Reply:Did they give you any instructions whatsoever on what will be done. If not, ask them. They are your best resource. When I was in high school I needed my wisdom teeth pulled, and I never had teeth pulled before. For me, they had to put me under. Each person is different, though, and it depends what your parents decide. Sometimes health insurance won't cover the gas but they will cover a shot. I've never had anything done with a shot before. I am pretty certain you will be given pain medication afterwards, though.


And it's ok to be nervous. Just don't freak out. Easier said than done, right? Just try doing some yoga, and on that day, see if you can bring in some music you can listen to on headphones or something.


But again...the best resource is to talk to your dentist. Keep in mind they are professionals and they will do what they can to help you and inform you. If they don't, you ask them. It's your family hiring them, remember. They're paid to serve you.
Reply:Well, for braces, I had to get 4 pulled. Im 13, never had novacaine or anything, so I was like seriously freakin nervous. For me (idk if its the same for you but it should be about the same) here is what they did:





1) Numbing gel on gums


2) Shot *wait to numb about 10-15 mins*


3) Wiggle tooth back and forth


4) Its out!





*You dont feel much, just a tiny bit of pressure when they are pushing and wiggling the tooth, but you dont even know its out when it is! Since you have molars that are broken, it will probably be a little different. Good Luck!

Get your freaking parents to get you to a dentist that will refer you somewher to get dentures or post for fake teeth. No guys like teethless women. Well at least I don't think so.
Reply:Umm i don't realy know
Reply:maybe u can go to the dentist %26amp; ask for fake teeth to replace the ones that fell out.
Reply:Kinda scary, maybe I oughtta brush better! Its a turn-off hun, sorry. I dont brush and my teeth are in... odd.
Reply:the only answer is to get false teeth and there will be plenty of guys who like you for you not your teeth
Reply:dont care what guys think
Reply:Get bridges... Permanent ones.
Reply:There is not a lot you can do about it now. Get a second opinion from another dentist to see which ones can be saved or if at least the root can be saved in some so you can get dental implants one day.
Reply:put braces fast and use listerine always.
Reply:you will need dentures. sorry you didnt take better care?
Reply:Don't worry, Dentists are great at what they do, they aren't going to leave you with no teeth! They'll probably find some false ones they'll stick on or something. But to answer your question.... sorry girl, I don't think guys would like a girl with no teeth more than a girl with bad ones. Good luck sweetie =)
Reply:well you are 14.. dont worry about it. guys cant even really "get it up" at 14 .. the most that will happen is a few people (like me in high school) will pick on you for a while
Reply:you can get dentures of partial and people will never no the difference.








my ex had baby bottle gum diease and all his baby teeth rotted out and then his adult teeth from beign put to bed with milk and juice as a baby. he got dentures and unless you told you bout them you would never no. Dont worry shitt happens just find your way around it and move on!
Reply:The dentist is not going ot leave you with no teeth! They will do what they can and you may need partial dentures or some crowns, etc. There are a lot of things that can be done and then you will have nice looking teeth and no one will be the wiser.


I am sorry that you have to be going through this! How horrible at your age! I feel for you.


But once they are all fixed then you don't have to tell anyone that they use to be bad teeth! It will be OK.
Reply:teeth are very important for your appearance...go to the dentist IMMEDIATELY!!! they're your only hope





gud luck ^_^
Reply:i have somewhat the same problem = after i had my daughters my teeth started cracking - they says it was due to a loss calcium during my pregnancy --- my only options are implants ($1200 each tooth) or dentures - i am going w/ the implants





I'm sorry, but i cannot go w/o my teeth -- #1 general appearance - #2 general health issues
Reply:the way you feel about bad teeth is probably the same as others would feel. talk to the dentist about things he can do to help. 14 is too young to have to deal with having no teeth or bad teeth. you have many years ahead of you. if you are getting them taken care of dont worry how others feel about it. as soon as your treatments are done youll feel better and look better and wont have to think about others opinions.
Reply:my best friend lost all of her teeth when she was 16 but it wasn't from not flossing or brushing enough it came from when she was a baby she was allergic to the milk and the formulas. yes it is a big turnoff to guys but you can get a partial or even dentures that look like real teeth and noone will even be able to tell the difference. she has dated a lot of guys and is now married and til this day none of the guys ever knew, including her husband that her teeth are not real. besides i would rather have fake teeth than rotten ones that may be something you may want to consider doing especially if it bothers you that much
Reply:you have to go in for a fitting in order to get new teeth that work for you and also try if you can to take better care of your personal hygeine nobody wants a person that seem to not care about themselves

Does Oral sex make your teeth shift and become crooked?

Becuase you know how you hear how it's bad for kids to suck their thumbs becuase it makes their teeth come in crooked. What happens if adults suck penises alot. Will that make my nice teeth shift and become crappy.





I would think not since we have our adult teeth and they are fully in but just want to make sure.

if you live with a dick in your mouth then you will need to take it out once and in a while so your teeth dont shift...but other wise no its fine...
Reply:oops last word was thought not though Report It

Reply:Only if you use your teeth during oral sex.


And only if you do it as often as a child sucks his thumb. And also, adluts teeth can shift just like anyone else's. Otherwise braces would be pointless.

Reply:~~~ No. Stop. You could go blind. ~~~
Reply:Any repetitive motions, our bodies shift to acomodate. This would probably include oral sex over time.





Adult teeth, if not properly cared for, can shift about in the gums and rot out as easily as baby teeth.
Reply:No, it will just make your teeth turn brown from the acid. Pops
