Perfed, now non-restorable
So, a patient came in with tenderness around #9 in August 2022, obvious PARL, tenderness to percussion. I recommended RCT and thought I could do it. Rx: AMX and told her to come back ASAP. She scheduled for the next week.

Access wasn't a problem. But then I was having some trouble negotiating the canal. Eventually got to a length similar to what I expected based on pre-op radiographs. But I couldn't get a dry canal. Place CaOH and had her come back to obturate another day.

Obturation went ok. She had some soreness afterwards, but otherwise recovered quickly and had no other issues. Until April. Follow-up xray at a hygiene visit looks really off. So I refer her to endo.

Got a call today from the endodontist and he's gentle, but basically says I shouldn't be doing endo anymore because of how bad I perforated this tooth and now there's not facial bone remaining. And the tooth is non-restorable and needs an implant. Also #10 might need a root canal (he hadn't tested vitality yet).

I guess I'm wondering if he's right. I know that I'm supposed to be able to deliver care up to the standard of an endodontist, and without a CBCT I didn't recognize how off I was. I've read a lot of other dentists here wondering if they're really cut out for the job, and now I'm in that boat. I've had tons of other root canals go fine, but this looks really rough. Thoughts anyone?

Wisdom Teeth concerns
Last Thursday I felt a sharp pain on my upper right wisdom tooth, it was like hell a 9 out of 10 pain my opinion. Took advil, tylenol, and put that benzocaine on my tooth and ice. I was scheduled today to see my dentist and he said I should get all 4 of my wisdom teeth out and he said that all of them are impacted. He referred me to an orthodontist for the extraction.

2 of my upper ones are cracked open. I don’t feel pain when I don’t do anything, I only feel a dull pain when I am chewing on my right side with hard food. No lingering pain at the moment.

How serious of a problem am I facing and how bad are my wisdom teeth, my dentist made me paranoid. Thank you in advance for all the input and suggestions. I attached the X-ray taken today.

Isn’t she beautiful :’)
My first lower six as a new grad, didn’t really get a good contact distally but my more experienced colleagues advised me not to crown it since it will be hard to get the distal margin in the tooth and the prognosis is kinda iffy. You guys agree?

Please help me😭😭😭😭😭
What can I do to help? I’ve been without insurance for years and I can’t afford payment plans. I’m so lost, I can’t even afford the state dentist school in Indiana😭😭 I’m in so much pain everyday, I wake up and cry from this. I can barely eat, I can barely sleep. Idk what to do at this point. I know I need them out but I can’t afford anything. I make to much for state insurance but I don’t make enough to get insurance from my job. What can I do😭😭😭😭😭 I’ve tried salt water rinses, cloves, orajel. Idk what else

periodontal disease
Hi I am a 28F with periodontal disease. I have endometriosis and also got surgery earlier for that this year. Unfortunately no matter what I did I could not save my bottom four teeth due to inflammation in my body. They put a temporary fixed bridge on top of my two canines and now I have a permanent fixed bridge with two crowns on canines. They say my Perio is stable. I will be going to the dentist every 3-4 months and I have a good oral routine down along. I just want some peace of mind that I am not gonna lose the rest of my teeth for my life.

17f X-ray.
I’m 17, was never took to the dentist past 10 years old due to a indecent, just found out I have a extra tooth under my nose so I need surgery, I was hoping to avoid surgery however I cannot get braces without as my teeth will not shift, take a look at my X-rays, I have a lot of problems, if u saw my teeth, there even worse in real life, am I at risk of oral cancer gum disease?? I’m terrified to get a proper cleaning by a dentist as I’ve heard teeth they are very bad can infect your heart when entered the blood stream and I already have arrhythmias.

10F daughter found this on roof of mouth last night
I posted in a different sub Reddit and was advised to ask here. My daughter was brushing her teeth last night and found this. No symptoms other than an upset stomach but I think that’s from something else. She just got back from her mom’s house yesterday so I’m trying to gauge my level of concern. We also have a baby and want to make sure this isn’t something serious and contagious. Any advice would be appreciated!

UPDATE: viral infection. She will be sick for about a week. Thank you to all that were concerned

Can anyone identify these things in my gf’s teeth?
I’ve been dating my girlfriend for about 8 months now, and i noticed these things in her teeth. She has them on every premolar and molar (all 16 teeth in the back) They look like dark silver, looks shiny, and feels round according to her. I asked her about them she doesn’t know what they are. We live in Singapore and the schools offer free dental in dental clinics (this will be important later). When I asked her about them she remembers being 10-11 (we are both 17) she went to the clinic because of this toothache she had. And they used the dental drill to drill her teeth and they also used other tools to “put pressure on the tooth” she also said the dentist didn’t numb her and it was painful. She also remembers a metallic taste and spending a lot of time at the clinic that day/week. Are they cavities? Does this have anything to do with her having really bad sensitivity to cold/hot stuff on those teeth? She also has toothaches from time to time in those teeth. Sorry if this sounds weird English isn’t my first language and I have no dental knowledge since I am pretty young.
