When I brush my teeth I basically put the tooth paste on my brush, and brush all of my teeth, i brush the gums real good, the inside behind my teeth, and all around my mouth twice then I rinse.

Does rinsing make the tooth paste less effective to whiten teeth?? If the tooth paste is tooth whitening, is there an amount of time you should let it sit on your teeth without brushing at all???

My molars on the back of my mouth have grown in. The tops ones are basically grown, and the two on the bottom are half out, and a little low to my gums. I am 13 years old, when do you think my molars will be grown out ?

I had my wisdom tooth extracted on Monday morning. No stitches. It is Wednesday and the gums around the extraction site is still swollen and tender. How long does it take for swelling to go down and for gums to heal? Is this normal?

Had a wisdom tooth taken out 6 weeks ago and there is still a hole in my gums. My dentist told me that it will eventually fill in with gums and bone, but it’s been 6 weeks! Is it possible to have a permanent hole in your gums after an extraction? or… am I just being impatient?

I recently went to the dentist after a strike out of not going for over about 4 years. It was pretty bad, and my current state is dental restore.

I have to have fillings, pretty sure I’m getting the composite resin colored ones. (Pretty much on all my teeth I need a filling)
Most of my cavities are under the gum line and come out from it, so I guess near the roots, only one or two are actually ontop or not near the roots/gum line.

It was hard enough going for a exam and cleaning. I guess I’m phobic you could say. I’m extremely nervous and worried about my next visit which is in a week and is the fillings.

I don’t know what to expect about what their going to do, I’ve read up on the fillings themselves and I’m pleased.

Also my teeth are highly sensitive, when I got my cleaning they did use a numbing gel, but for my cavities teeth, pain shot sharply through my tooth and seemingly to my roots.

Any advice,tips,stories would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Thanks everyone for the advice!!!!

My dentist so far seems very nice, I only got to speak with him for a brief moment, my hygienist did the cleaning and everything else, although she could use a few smiley face stickers. I don’t think my dentist does the relax, dope you up stuff. Because before hand I explained to them how nervous/phobic I was and how sensitive my teeth were at this state and all I got was a numbing gel.

I’m brushing 3 times a day with toothpaste, and brushing in between meals without tp. Flossing once a day, and using special little brushes to help with the flossing. Also using mouth wash once a day and it has fluoride.

But my gums are still very red and sensitive, and bleed alittle bit after brushing. I need braces and its really hard to keep the plaque off and out of all the crevices.

My anxiety is mostly over, the pedicure, the pain, the after experience.
I’m phobic of needles and blood, hate the taste and seeing it, sometimes I faint
