  • Can a toothache last for months?

    A toothache will last until it is fixed. But that all depends on where the pain is coming from. If it is a cavity it won’t resolve it’ll only get worse. If it is past a cavity and now is infected it will continue to worsen until there is no longer pain is the nerve days but then you’re in more trouble. Quick question for you why don’t you just go to the dentist? Dr Jensen READ MORE

  • Does massaging gums help toothaches?

    No. But fixing the issue will Dr Jensen READ MORE

  • Does lemon kill bacteria in the mouth?

    No, lemon will not kill the bacteria in your mouth. It will just make your mouth taste a little lemony. You need to use something that is an antiseptic. For example, Listerine or a product similar to Listerine. There are other products available that will kill the bacteria in your mouth, or at least help control them anyways. But unfortunately, lemon is not one of them, it just makes your water taste a lot better. Dr. Jensen READ MORE

  • What home remedy kills bacteria in teeth?

    First of all you, don’t want to kill all the bacteria in your mouth. There are bad bacteria that are harmful and cause oral disease. But there are also good bacteria that are essential at keeping your oral health balance. The best home remedy that I am aware of is to use over-the-counter Listerine. It has been shown to destroy many of the bad bacteria that causes the diseases, cavities, and plaque buildup. There are prescriptions that you can get from your dentist that will do close to the same job. Brushing your teeth with the fluoridated toothpaste will also destroy many of the bad bacteria. I know a lot of people are against fluoride. But that’s because they don’t have a good understanding of what fluoride is. It’s not toxic or poisonous and it won’t make you grow a third head. Without fluoride, there would be no existing life on earth. It is very good to use and safe to use. So, using a combination of toothbrushing with fluoride followed by a 30-60 sec rinse of Listerine and floss is the best way to prevent come disease, bone disease, plaque buildup, and the distraction of harmful bacteria. Most home remedies like lemon, essential oils, and other things that people make up do not work. I’d recommend sticking to known proven science. Speak with your dentist as well, that’s also very helpful with a nice personal conversation. Dr. J READ MORE

  • What helps with dental implant pain?

    Implants should not hurt. They may have discomfort the day or so after they are placed but not much after. If they hurt you need to see your dentist that placed them ASAP. C Jensen DDS MD READ MORE

  • How do you treat pus in the gums?

    If you have pus in your mouth you need to go figure out why with your dentist. Depending on cause treatments will differ. Pus is from infection, infection bad. Dr Jensen READ MORE

  • How long does it take for gums to heal after a root canal?

    Your gums should not be affected at all unless there was an abscess. In that case the guns typically heal in a few days if your a non smoker and have good home care. If not it can take much longer. Keep up good hygiene and you’ll be all healed up quickly unless there were other complications. Dr Jensen READ MORE

  • Is Invisalign best for sensitive teeth?

    The product used to straighten your teeth is not determined by sensitivity of your teeth. It is determined by the position rotations and angulation‘s of your teeth and how your bite is. Talk to your dental professional about the right product for you Dr Jensen READ MORE

  • Why does the dental drill hurt so much?

    Because your dentist doesn’t know how to use anesthetic properly. It should not hurt unless the tooth is infected or you're not numb. Dr. Jensen READ MORE

  • Are you asleep for wisdom teeth removal?

    You're asleep if you fall asleep. Just poking at you. You can do with or without sedation if you choose. Dr. Jensen READ MORE

  • Can you get partial dentures for back teeth?

    Of course. That’s why it’s called a partial denture. It can replace 1 to many teeth anywhere in the arch. READ MORE

  • How long does it take to heal from dental implant surgery?

    Depends on type of implant you get. There are several types. Also depends on your health. Most implants need to be placed and allowed to heal before finial crown is placed. That can cube up to several months. Talk with your dentist. They know you best and know what best option is. Dr Jensen READ MORE

  • Should you wet your toothbrush before brushing?

    It does not matter Dr Jensen READ MORE

  • Can I eat peanut butter after tooth extraction?

    Yes, eat all you want just not the crunchy type, Dr Jensen READ MORE

  • Should I be able to floss under my implant?

    No, as your implant is embedded in bone. You will still be able to floss around the crown that is attached to the implant. I'm sorry the dentist did not go over all the instructions.  Conway, The dental Guy READ MORE

  • Does coconut oil whiten your teeth?

    No, it does not. Dr. Jensen READ MORE

  • How successful are dental bone grafts?

    Bone grafting is very successful depending on a few things. Some are for example the type of bone or material used, skill of Surgon, health of patient and the ability of patient to follow the post op instructions. If the criteria are met the graft will have huge success rate. Talk with your dentist, do your research and pick a good provider. Dr Jensen READ MORE

  • Should you floss before or after brushing?

    Any floss is better than no floss. Floss like a boss before, after or whenever. Dr Jensen READ MORE

  • What happens if you don't get a cavity filled?

    It’s like a crack in you windshield, it just grows until one day the window just crumbles into a million pieces. But teeth have nerves and if cavities get big enough you get infection possible. Fix it while it’s small Dr Jensen READ MORE

  • Can a bottom tooth make a top tooth hurt?

    Yes, sometimes a rear bottom molar can cause what’s called referred pain to an upper tooth. Dr. Jensen READ MORE
