    I have been getting reoccuring white pimples on my gym, only in one area. i floss/brush my teeth and i bought oraldene. but they spots are still coming back, they burst and go away, they don't hurt either, just wondering if anyone knows what could be causing this.

    thanks in advance

    Could be an abcess, or Fordyce Spots, or a mucocele best visit a dentist when they are up and check them out....

    ha i am spending far to much time in the gym, its going to my head. :D

    I have a question?

    I have to get root canal treatments & then a crown. Now the nerve is already dead, as it turns out a dentist did the first part of a root canal without telling me or get this NOT charging me.

    i got a filling replaced by him, a mercury to a white one, a few days later i was in agony. he took out the white filling and replaced it again. but in the process he killed the nerve and did part rooth canal, he never told me, he just sent me on my way without letting me know what he had done.

    now i have to get it competed. as i have something called a sinus infection.

    now to the cost €800 for the crown €475 for the rooth canal:eek:

    does this price sound right, i have no money and no denal insurance.

    and i am kind of upset that the previous dentist did this without telling me. i mean the tooth was perfect before i got the mercury filling replaced

    are you sure he intentionally killed it??

    white fillings are very technique sensitive, and can cause a lot of sensitivity afterwards. if the filling was already deep, then the added trauma of getting the old one drilled out, along with the white filling could've caused the nerve to die off itself.

    erm, and the tooth wasn't perfect before you got the mercury filling replaced. it had a filling in it!

    the new dentist said there was a cotton peg inserted into the tooth and he said the 1st stage of root canal was done. regardless of the tooth having a filling already, or the trauma to the tooth after getting it replaced with a white filling, he should have told me what he was doing.

    it appears to me and the new dentist i visited, that the nerve was intentionally killed. and i was none the wiser
