Do I go see a dentist or a doctor for this problem?

Firstd1mension asked:

I never had my upper-right wisdom tooth removed, even though it came out facing out at my cheek, since it usually never gives me any trouble. Well, somehow, a big gash formed way back there on my cheek, and I think my salivary glands have become infected because I feel a lot of pain under my jaw, quite a ways away from the sore itself, and it hurts to swallow. Is this a problem for a dentist or a doctor? Emergency room, Primary Care Physician, or Endocrinologist? And does anyone have any insight or suggestions for me? It hurrrts! Thanks!
I have State Employee insurance, so no matter what I do I won’t have to pay anything. And it’s not an infected tooth, it’s a cut that was caused by the misaligned tooth. =o/ ow!

Nicky asked:

To cut a long story short my dentist couldn’t fix a problem with a tooth I had infact it was much worse I had seen 2 other dentists in the clinic more than 5 times for the same problem. He removed a cusp off the tooth and after several efforts of drilling, grinding and filling it’s all been a waste. I was then told that teeth are very hard to work out what exactly is wrong with them sometimes so they can only try different things that they think will fix it. I was told to take a weeks worth of sudifed in case I had sinus problems – that didn’t work. If I get this tooth out I will have trouble eating it’s a molar and I have already had the other one on the other side out. I have been sent countless bills and let them know I refuse to pay as I’m in a worse situation to when I walked in there but they come up with maybe you need this or that. I have now been sent a letter stating they’ll take legal action Would you pay it to make them go away?
I’m sick of being treated like a guinea pig and I have been communicating with the owner of the business. If I was in their shoes I think under the circumstances I would let it go

He just wiped the tooth with gauze and applied some transparent stuff on top of that filling. Should I be worried? What is the mechanism of this method?

The dentist declined to perform a root canal until the generally healthy 60 year old patient had seen a specialist in internal medicine. Is this as ominous as it appears?

The Professor asked:

Dentist seem a lot less grueling and it is not as stressful having to be in control of people’s lives but I have a problem.

I brush my teeth twice a day but some of my teeth are crooked and my mom is way too poor to afford braces for me. I wanted to know if it will be a determing factor in my carreer?

Is it like one of those come as you are things that they say to you in church? You can come as you are but if you dress as you are people start looking at you funny even though it says come as you are?

I don’t want to be a dentist with crooked teeth. It would be like being a breast implant surgeon with flat breast or a very overwieght gym coach.

Should I try and get braces or can I wait till later to do all of that in college?

My bottom canine teeth areslightly turned about 20 degrees towards the outside of my mouth. There are also a few gaps between my top canine teeth and the ones next to it.

Will this create a problem for me becoming a dentist?

Micky asked:

I have no problem going to the orthodontist, but I get extremely scared when I have to go to the dentist. I don’t know why.

I have to go soon because my bottom gums are hurting me a lot. I’m really sore and it needs to be looked at.

But I’m too scared to go! Why am I scared?

karbob asked:

I recall dental visits used to be once a year for a cleaning and check up. Now 6 months seems to be the norm and most dentists are pushing return visits every 4 months. Is this just a business strategy or is there a valid reason for the shrinking timeline? I don’t have dental insurance and exam, x-rays, and cleaning can cost $150 to $200 each time.
