Hello! We recently had a medical examination at school and the dentist gave me a note saying that I have caries and should visit a dentist as soon as possible. I had already noticed a black hole myself, which seemed quite deep. The dentist told me that it looks only superficial, but is probably deeper. I would like to

Hello, I have a problem with the aesthetic appearance of my upper front teeth.

Visitor asks:

For some time I have had problems with the upper left second premolar. When I pointed this out to my dentist, he X-rayed the tooth and said that I had exposed enamel, but otherwise there was nothing wrong with the tooth.

Hello, I would like to ask how long this tooth hurts when a wisdom tooth is erupting. My gum is very tense and it can barely push through the gum, and I have severe pain. What can I do now — should I visit a dentist, or what do you recommend? Please let me know as soon as possible. Sara

Visitor asks:

I have periodontal disease. Less than a week ago my dentist performed a rough removal of dental calculus. I now brush my teeth with a soft toothbrush three times a day and rinse my mouth with salt water twice a day and once with mouthwash. However, my gums hurt a lot during and after brushing.

Visitor asks:

Hello. I would like to ask for your opinion. I had my upper left central incisor left open for two years, and after two years I finally found the courage, because I have an abnormal fear of dentists, and went to a dentist. He started cleaning the canals; he also had an X-ray of the tooth and decided that we would try t

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.

Dear Sir/Madam! Given that the tooth was left open for two years, its prognosis is very poor. It is always worth trying, but in view of the clinical picture you describe, I believe it would be best to remove the tooth. A final decision can only be made after examining the X-ray,
