No worries, as Kitty has been seen by the Vet and was given a round of antibiotics to ease gum swelling after the break. Can Kitty still chew gum now that the antibiotics are completed?

Is the instrument suppose to be there? They want me to go to a root canal specialist. Is this necessary?

I need a root canal done on tooth number 3, the second to the last molar and was wondering how much it might cost, it is under a bridge too. and how long do root canals last and what could go wrong with them?

Please let me know.
Do they put you to sleep to fix a toothache?
What is the procedure like for a toothache fix?

My dog has a front tooth that is broken pretty much in half. She is showing absolutely no signs of pain, discomfort, etc. But what if anything can vets do about it? There’s now way I’m letting her go under anesthesia. Ive heard too many direct accounts of people’s dogs dying from too much anesthesia. So if we do nothing, will the tooth just rot out?

I’m sitting here with a really bad toothache and a swollen jaw, and I can’t get to the dentist until after the New Year. I’m taking Ibuprofen and lots of hot salty water, so it’s bearable.
But it just occurred to me to wonder, given that in the past people could die from tooth problems:-
What do people who live in the jungle or the desert or any of the other inhospitable places on the planet do?
Do they have remedies we don’t know about, or perhaps they don’t get tooth problems because they have such a natural, unrefined and unprocessed diet.

I have a broken tooth that has decayed some and is now giving me unbearable pain. I feel even feel the pain in my ear. I cannot afford to gog to the dentist till next week. Will they be able to do anything for me if I go to the hospital emergency room? I can’t deal with the pain anymore. I would rather die.
