Can I permanently fix teeth gaps after braces and retainer?

Patient's Query

I have used braces for 10 months as I have gaps between my teeth and then used retainer for 1 year. And after one more year, now my teeth are moving same as previous and getting gaps between them. can you tell that you can fix this permanently ?

Dental Treatment

Answered by Dr. Ronak Shah

The retainer often causes this issue because it doesn't fit properly, allowing teeth to shift and gaps to reappear. You may need to see your orthodontist to determine if braces or a different retainer are needed. It's crucial to follow your orthodontist's instructions carefully to maintain the results of your treatment.

How to get rid of an abscess without going to the dentist

Female | 34

An abscess is annoying. You'll likely notice mouth pain, redness, and swelling. It occurs when bacteria enters a tooth. To help yourself, rinse repeatedly with warm salt water daily. This can ease the area, and reduce infection somewhat. However, seeing a dentist promptly remains crucial.

If he is experiencing blurred vision, it could be due to several factors, including swelling, infection, or simply a reaction to the surgery. It's important to monitor any accompanying symptoms such as redness or increased pain. For now, ensure he keeps the area clean and follows any care instructions provided by your healthcare team. I recommend consulting a doctor to get a proper assessment and guidance, especially if symptoms persist. They can offer the best advice personalized for his situation.

I am 19 year old female and I my gums are becoming quite soft and aching since 3,4 days and I have ulcers in my thorat and tongue...suggest me what to do?

Female | 19

You could have gingivitis. When your gums are red, swollen and bleed easily it is called gingivitis. Plaque builds up on the teeth and causes this. The sores on your throat and tongue may be due to infection. To relieve symptoms make sure that you brush and floss gently but often; use mild antiseptic mouthwash as well. Drink lots of water too so that spicy or acidic food does not irritate the mouth any further. Visit a dentist if there is still no change in the condition.

A.o.A Can we push back long upper teeth to improve smile through some dental procedure. Patient age is 32.

Male | 32

If your upper teeth appear prominent, it could be due to various factors such as jaw alignment or dental positioning. Options for correction include orthodontic treatments like braces or clear aligners, which can gently reposition your teeth over time. Consulting with a qualified dentist or orthodontist is essential, as they can assess your unique situation and recommend the best approach tailored to your needs.

In 5 years old boy Gums soiling one place

Male | 5

If you spot one area with a buildup of deposits on the gum, the reason could be dental hygiene problems, or maybe something got in there and stayed. This could then result in gum irritation. To be sure that your child is thoroughly cleaning his or her teeth, and the situation persists, consult a dentist for better treatment.

I had my horizontal wisdom tooth extracted. It's been painful for 4 days. Then the pain reduced. Then i noticed a hard lump near my jaw near the surgical site. It hurts a lot when i open my mouth and laugh.

Female | 25

It seems you probably suffer from a condition named dry socket that can occur after a tooth extraction. The firm lump near your jaw can be the clot that could not form the proper way. This, in turn, might be causing your mouth pain and the feeling of not being okay to move. In addition to applying a cold compress, try rinsing your mouth with warm salt water and you will be pain-free. Apart from these remedies get professional help from dentists.
