I have been looking into the mirror and noticing my teeth they were turning yellow! I took a picture of myself and you could see a yellow blur were my teeth are! I need to clean them. I have a scrapper to get like the chunks out, a electronic tooth brush with these modes,
clean, soft, polish, massive.
I also have been using Crest Pro Health (not the night time one)
Eww! Yellow Teeth?
Do you drink coffee? that could be the cause
Reply:Keep brushing, the teeth wont turn white after a couple nights of brushing. Keep brushing after each meal on a daily basis and before you go to bed which is really important. Not smoking,drinking strong color juice will also help. Try buying whiting strips, dont sure if they work but Crest makes them. Good luck and give it a few weeks.
Reply:Sorry, what's the question? Seriously, try using a whitening toothpaste like arm and hammer, or a pre-brush mouthwash. You can also get whitening gels and strips at the drugstore. I don't know if this answers your question, mainly because I'm not sure what your question is.

Get braces or dont get them? (pictures included)?
Get braces or dont get them ?
Im very insecure about my teeth. Theyre not extremely crooked, but yeah they are crooked. My friends say they dont notice, and a few people who already notice still say I have a great smile. Im not boasting, but Im not bad looking. However, my looks dont makeup for my teeth so at times I feel unconfident. Should I get braces anyways ? Im 16 =/

Get braces or dont get them? (pictures included)?
I have just turned thirteen and I got train track braces in December after having really annoying/sore overbite braces (they made you look like you were giving permanent sniders plus all your food got stuck in the top plate).
I say get them! I can't view your pictures because I'm not a member of Blog Spot but I say even if they are slightly crooked get them because in the end they won't be just slightly crooked - they will be straight!
Heres some things you should know.
It doesn't hurt when you first put them on it hurts about twenty minutes later and lasts up to about to two weeks afterwards depending on how sensitive your teeth are (mine lasted for about three days).
If you don't like school you will like it even though it's painful because you normally get about two days off each time it's tightened because it's so painful (so painful you end up crying half the time just to let you know).
Sorry if I'm scaring you but I thought you should know the honest truth.
I've never had a tooth ache as I have had brilliant teeth hygiene all my life but I think it is probably worse considering you get mild tooth aches and very very painful tooth aches.
They gave me one ulsar because at one side my orthadontist left the wire too long but it soon goes away as your gums adjust.
I've never had the colours changed but when i had them put of the first time (the same as changing them) it was painless it was the most relaxing bit of the treatment.
I would suggest buying the little floshing brushes to use in your braces and use the water pik aswell. I use both and it helps bad breath and stuff like that.
Also stock up of mouthwash and toothpaste for obvious reasons!
Always carry mints and a little compact mirror for bad breath plus food stuck in the braces. It's really not nice for people to see or smell.
Since I am bored I will explain what happened to me e.g. how he put it on.
First obviously you lie back in the chair and put these speacial UV protection glasses on.
He first cleans your teeth with something simmilar to a water pik.
He then puts green gel stuff on your teeth so the braces will stick better (they are glued to your teeth BTW). Don't put your toungue on the gel it tastes digusting and leaves you with a horrible taste in your mouth all day.
He gets the brackets (the bits the colour goes on) and sticks them with special glue on your teeth. One per tooth.
He now cuts a bit of wire and clips that in to each bracket to form a brace. He know asks you what colours you would like. I would suggest green and pink as it looks super cool in your mouth but it's your decision.
He puts the colours in (you can ask for three colours one after the other, two colours one after the other or first on the top set second colour on the bottom set).
Now he explains your brushing routine and gives you dental wax to helps your gums and tongue (you can basically throw thi in the bin when you are home - it is hopeless and doesn't even stick to your braces).
I forgot to mention that while he is doing this you have a vacuam type tube in your mouth so you don't choke on your saliva or the water out the water pik thing.
I have pink and green at the momment they are very cool. They are very bright! The green is lovely. I have these colours until March I want black and purple in March.
The black is super cool too I think and doesn't make you look like you have rotton teeth. Since in March it's nearly easter time I suggest "Easter colours" like pink, yellow, green, light blue, lilacs. Any soft/pastal colour is like a "Easter colour".
If you are scared/worried tell your orthadontist he/she should then take you through what they are going to do to make you feel at ease.
Good luck and hope your better soon if they end up sore.
Feel free to e-mail me about anything to do with dentists or braces.
Hope I helped!

I had REALY bad buck teeth from being youg up intil about a year ago (when I was 15 Years Old)?
So all my school photographs and holiday photos and photos with my friends have my teeth looking awful on them. What I was wondering is when I get a boyfriend (a serious one) and we look at each others photos..how would they react to these old pictures!??
I had REALY bad buck teeth from being youg up intil about a year ago (when I was 15 Years Old)?
You look at pictures of how you used to look and laugh.. and if people take the mickey you laugh and agree because you know you looked silly. I've never met anyone who fell out because of what they used to look like as a kid.
Reply:i wouldn't show those photos unless i wanted to know how vain he is. people always want to show how far they've come, because of their pride, which is understandable. but if you do it too early on in the relationship people tend to focus on what that person used to be like, and it can distort things a bit.
Reply:Don't worry, Ken Dodd and Esther Ransome made a fortune with their prominent teeth, nobody laughs at them. well Ken Dodd apart. But you know what I mean buck teeth can be very appealing.
Reply:just laugh about it. He will be interested in the person you are and shouldn't be bothered about how you looked when younger. Its a shame people put so much emphasis on what they look like . Some really good looking people have personalities like dead fish. I would rather be with someone open hearted and good natured. good luck to you.
Reply:Old photographs of anybody always raise a smile, buck teeth, stupid expression, bad hair......we all have them and nobody cares very much it seems about anyone else's because they know their own are just as bad if not worse - don't waste any more time worrying about this.

Super scared about wisdom teeth removal this Friday!?
So I am having oral surgery this Friday to remove all 4 of my wisdom teeth. The 2 up top are poking through but not completely...and my bottom ones are impacted. The 2 up top are the ones bothering me and irritating my cheeks/gums. My bottom ones I don't seem to have any trouble with. *BUT* if I am going to go through this I'd rather only do it once and go for all 4. Anyways, I realize that millions of people have gone through this and that it's a common thing, but I am 100% petrified! I was ok when I made the appointment but now that is only days away I'm freaking out. My stomach is in knots and I know it will only get worse closer to Friday. And I know that looking up pictures and reading experiences on the internet is only making me more scared. Can I can get some words of encouragement and some non-scary stories to try to help me calm my nerves!!! Thanks ya'll!
Super scared about wisdom teeth removal this Friday!?
it is honestly the easiest dental procedure possible for you. i am terrified of the dentist! but this was the greatest experience ever! i went in, got a small prick in my arm, counted backwards from 10(i only remember getting to 9) and then i woke up and was done! if only ALL my dental visits could be this easy!
discomfort afterwards was VERY minimal and i have like ZERO pain tolerance, even after 3 kids!
good luck and seriously dont worry!
Reply:i got it done about 6 months ago, they knock you out with nitrous and you wake up an hour later with swollen gums. it is kind of painful for about a week or so afterwards, but with the painkiller meds they give you, its bearable...
Reply:Ok. I had mine done when i was 17. So did most of my sisters. They put me on that gas (what do they call it laughing gas for pain?) so i was still awake but couldnt feel anything.. I was in a chair mostly in sitting up position. It was quick.. pretty easy and feels much better after than having those things poking threw. After you will get rest %26amp; sleep. Having tonsils taken out was worse.. this will be pretty easy for you.
Dont worry %26amp; quit doing research on it lol. Just let it be:)p
Reply:I had two bottom wisdom teeth removed. The surgery itself is not painful.....you will be given a prescription for pain medicine for afterward, have it filled asap - to avoid unecessary discomfort. It's better to have it done now, than to wait. - besides, it will most certainly benefit you and prevent damage to your teeth and gums.
Don't worry, just relax - it will all be over soon. :)
Reply:I enjoyed getting those stupid wisdom teeth out. I kept biting my cheek, obviously no room in my gums for an extra set of teeth!
They will knock you out and yeah you will be sore for a few days, but you'll be fine. Best wishes!
Reply:First make sure that your dentist is using the strongest knock out stuff he can use. The ones that give you a pill , or an IV and then a ton of Novocaine are the best ..for me once the procedure was done...the rest of it was not so bad 'cause I knew it was over! Your mouth willbe swollen and hurt bad foabout 48 hours. If you have anything that will help you sleep that would be good. He will send you home with pain medication..(an Rx) ask him to prescribe the strongest med. he can and also something to help you sleep. BEA BIG BABY!! This is one thing you don't have to be tough about! I don't know who you have taking you .. but they better be really nice!! You will need someone really nice!!! Anyway...long story, short version. It's not fun...all you should feel when they pull the teeth is pressure. If you feel anything else YELL...you don't have to have pain during this part. You will have enough after(I'm sorry ..I just had to say that..)....but just keep thinking "this is as bad as it's ever going to be...I did it I'm done..I went to the mountain and conquered it!!! good luck...email me tomorrow ..(if you're not dead) and tell me how it went. I'm kidding you shall not die! ♥ ♥
"this to shall pass" ♥
Reply:Yikes! Do not look at pictures on the internet! Thank God it never occured to me to look up the procedure. All I know is that I am terrified of the dentist in general, and put off having my wisdom teeth pulled for years because I was so anxious. This despite the fact my cheeks bled every time the teeth came in, and I could hardly chew because of the pain. But I'd heard everybody's horror stories (especially my mother's, as she got up in the middle of her procedure and left!), and was certainly no glutton for punishment. I stressed and put off doing it for a long time, told myself it was too expensive, freaked out before I went, couldn't sleep the night before, etc. But, as it turned out, the whole thing was completely fine! It was totally one of those "what was the big deal about that?" sort of events. I had hardly any soreness after all four were pulled. I had it done on a Friday, and my cheeks were ridiculously puffy afterwards, but I felt fine the whole time. I drank smoothies, slept a lot on Saturday, and by Sunday I even looked normal. My husband told me that when he got his pulled he went to a party that same night. It was a complete non-event in my life, and I honestly hadn't even thought of it again before I read your post (I happened to be looking up orthodontist information for my daughter!). You will be completely fine! Take advantage of the time to get some rest, watch old movies, and just take it easy afterwards!
Reply:I had all 4 wisdoms removed and all were impacted.
You will be in pain for about 1 week to 10 days. But your doc will prescribe you some good pain medication. As long as you take the medication as prescribed you will be fine!!
Don't forget to take your pain meds because once the meds are out of your body it becomes hard to control the pain again.
Its not that bad. No seriuosly it really isn't!! You will need to ice your face for the first 48hrs.
My advice is eat lots of foods before this Friday. Pack on some calories because once the teeth are removed you will be only able to eat soft foods for a while.
Make sure you get rest, and lots of! This will def speed up the healing process and deminish your pain. Just make sure you sleep on 2-3 pillows and don't lay flat or the swelling will increase.
In just a week you will be much better, and in two weeks you will be great.
Stop worrying you will be fine.
Reply:Dooont worry i ve had maaany friends who've done it my mom has too all u have to do is rest ur pretty head on the dentists chair and in 1 hour ull wake up prety numb and u might get pain after the numbness goes which takes a while ur dentist should give u antibiotics (however u spell it) so take them before the numbness fades away and in about 2-5 days ull be juuust peachy keen fine xP

I got my teeth taken out when I was 17 ..so that was two years ago. I had all four taken out....yay me....
Anyway...I wasn't actually scared about the surgery ...well not as much as having them stick an IV needle in me. I'm so scared of needles!! Well what I did was stay up all night watching movies and enjoying myself as much as possible until 10 A.M. when I had to get there. I was so dog gone tired that it didn't really bother me to have her poke me. I was just like "give me that drugs already so I can sleep". The only thing bad for me was it took her three tries for her to get the needle in me. I thought I was going to strangle her...but I was so tired that I just started laughing. ....Then I closed my eyes and focused on sleep. I think I woke up around 6-6:30 P.M. I felt actually pretty good ...it was the next day when I puffed up that was hard for me.
I CAN'T STRESS THE NEED TO SLEEP WITH YOUR HEAD ELEVATED....IT WILL REDUCE YOUR SWELLING.
Continued....
When I got home I had to use ibuprofen to kill the pain because my mom refused to let me have the stronger stuff. Of course that didn't kill the pain at all ....well at least not for the first two days or so. So it was kinda hard for me I guess. But I think having trouble eating was the next hard thing for me. I was so scared to eat anything for fear that it would get infected. My doc told me to swish warm water with salt disolved in it to clean my stiches. Do this after you eat....or more if you want to. Mine didn't get infected and I didn't puff up that much either...but just being slightly puffy is enough to make me unhappy.
Oh I forgot to mention when you go ...go in your most comfortable sleepware. ....your just going to sleep all day anyway.
***My doctor drilled a hole all the way through two of them so I kept them and put them on a necklace as a reminder. I thought I'd keep them because it's like wisdom on a string.
I know it's kinda weird....
GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Are my maltese's teeth normal?
When it closes its mouth and doesn't have his tounge out, like he usually does, his bottom teeth sort of stay out in front of his lips and he never keeps them in, when closing his mouth. I've seen other maltese dogs in pictures on the net and haven't seen this in them.
Are my maltese's teeth normal?
nope, that's not normal. your dog has a serious underbite. hope you didn't pay a bunch of money for him and i REALLY hope you aren't planning on using him for stud
Reply:some dogs have bad alignment of their teeth. it's a breeding issue. you should not breed him if you were planning with this type of malalignment. aside from that take him to the vet and make sure there aren't too many teeth, like he has retained his baby teeth or the teeth are decayed and that's why they're sticking out. if it's just how his teeth are keep an eye on them and make sure he gets his teeth checked at yearly vet visits. but most dogs that have this issue do fine. they chew with their back molars so as long as they are aligned right shouldn't cause any problem. he'll just have a toothy smile.
Reply:It's not the breed standard. He has an underbite, but it's nothing to worry about if he is a pet. You wouldn't want to breed him.
Reply:he just has an underbite...no worries...it can be sort of cute sometimes!
Reply:I don't know if its normal or not, but my maltese has the same problem with his teeth. But the underbite doesn't seem to bother my dog at all, so I think its not a health issue, just crooked teeth.
Reply:IT IS NORMAL for Maltese. They all have it. I have two Maltese dogs %26amp; they both do too.
It is also NORMAL for them to cough. It sounds a bit like they are choking, but they are not. It is just something Maltese dogs do.

If your maltese is very young it might correct itself, you should ask your vet, there may be a overcrowding of teeth.

I'm 22 and I still have 2 baby teeth...Implants? or a Bridge?
Ok, so both of my K-9's are baby teeth. I went to the dentist and he told me that my perminents were impacted in my gums and that they were coming down horizontally and would eventually knock out all of my front teeth. Needless to say, I had them removed when they went in for my wisdom teeth. I know my options are implants or a bridge, but what is the better option? Bridges kinda freak me out, but if I go with an implant, I will have to do a bone graft. I need some advice from anyone who has been there,.... I am getting married December of 09' and I want to have a beautiful smile in my wedding pictures!

bridges are less painful, and there is no recovery time.
Reply:Implants would look best. If you are going to get a bridge you would probably need to have the crowns of the bridge extend to all front teeth, in order for it too look the best, which will add greatly to the cost of the bridge. I would recommend the implants, they look great and last well as long as you take care of them and keep them cleaned regularly by professionals. The graft is a good thing, this helps insure that it will not interfere with your sinuses and that it will last.
Reply:Both are good restorations. The implant is the best option, because it is more like a natural tooth. A bridge can be difficult to clean around, you have to use special flossing techniques. It may be fine, if you are disciplined. An implant will also look better. Even the best bridge looks like a bridge to the trained eye. If I had the two options, and could afford the implants, I would definitely choose the implants.
Reply:Implants are definitely the best way to go as far as long term. Also, you do not have to damage the surrounding teeth! You should go have a consultation regarding the implant process and costs. Implants are a lengthy process, even more if you need to have the bone graft but the results are fantastic. Make sure to weigh all pros and cons before you make your decision good luck!
