Flap Surgeries

Questions
Doctors

My left wisdom tooth has been growing in side ways, but has not been able to come in fully. It started hurting about two days ago. I did not think anything of it and thought it was just growing in more. There was a flap of skin/gum covering part of the tooth. When I went to brush my teeth this morning, I noticed that part of it (underneath where the skin covered before) was now a blackish color. I got a sore throat and swollen lymph nodes only on the left side of my throat around the same time my tooth started hurting. Are these related? I have a dentist appointment in a week. Is there anything I can do to help it to make it better or ease the pain? It hurts to chew on that side of my mouth and it hurts when I swallow. Will my tooth be okay until I get to the dentist and what will be done by the dentist? Do you think my tooth is infected? Will I have to take antibiotics?

Dear Patient,Normally if proper approximation is achieved during primary closure and the wound closure has taken place ie after 40 days then there is no further need for for a flap surgery or Z-Plasty if the whole tooth has been removed. That will take care of the Oro-Antral Fistula.The pain and swelling is associated with the surgical part and shall dissappear within a week. Use cold fomentation along with the medicines prescribed to you by your dentist and wait. ...

Hi, Till the time you are on heavy antibiotics you can take a drug which will help reduce acidity , if pantocid does not suit your need then you can take omeprazole or rabeprazole or even tab ranitidine suits some people . First you should try tab ranitidine 150mg twice daily empty stomach . For constipation high water intake is one , but also you should take high fiber diet like have plenty of salads and fruits like papaya which will help you with your bloating sensation and specially you will ...

Hi. I am 22, female. My wisdom teeth (both top and bottom) are growing on the right side of my mouth. But the bottom tooth has gum flap over it and I'm suffering with tooth ache, unable to open my mouth fully and so unable to eat properly. My dentist gave me moxikind cv625 (for 3days) and hifenac mr (for 5days) to be taken twice after breakfast and after dinner. This gives me relief for 3-4 hours and then the pain starts again. What should I do?

If the pericoronitis is limited to the tooth (for example, if the pain and swelling has not spread), treat it by rinsing your mouth with warm salt water. You should also make sure that the gum flap has no food trapped under it. If your tooth, jaw, and cheek are swollen and painful, see your dentist right away. ...

Hi Judging by the terms used by you to describe the problem it seems that either you are related to the medical field or done enough research on the net . Having said that ,you know it's a problem and has to be done ...so always the earlier the better .As you do not have any symptoms now ...you can plan and schedule it appropriately .Later it may become an emergency and may trouble you when you least expect it or are busy with something really important . Don't wait too long ...get it done . ...
