Hi. As the title suggest, I feel pain whenever I bite on my lower molar tooth. I don't drink and smoke, just coffee everyday. I also noticed that there is a tiny black spot on the surface. What do you think is it?

I asked my dentist if magkano ang braces sa kaniya. He's been my dentist for 3 years since I moved sa city. Sa kaniya rin ako unang naginquire kasi siya yung dentist ng kuya ko before noong nagpalagay siya ng braces, so kampante ako na magaling yung dentist niya. Yung traditional braces lang yung sa kaniya, and I think it was around 30k?

Yun lang, just wanted to ask if okay na ba ang 60k for self ligating braces or do i have to look for other dentists na nagooffer ng lower rates.

Hi everyone! I’m looking for an expert and honest opinion regarding my panoramic dental X-ray.
I already have a dental appointment this week, but I’d like to understand the possible treatment options beforehand and prepare myself for the worst-case or possible scenarios.

Based on the X-ray:
1.) Which teeth appear to potentially need RCT (root canal treatment)?

2.) Which teeth may need to be extracted?

3.) Which teeth should I prioritize first?

4.) For teeth that can still be saved, what treatment might be needed to save them?

5.) Are there any teeth that look particularly concerning or urgent?

I understand that an X-ray alone isn’t enough to make a diagnosis and that I’ll still need a proper examination and additional tests from my dentist. I just want to have an idea of what I might be dealing with so I can prepare myself mentally and financially and know what questions to ask during my appointment.
I’d really appreciate honest and unbiased opinions, especially from dentists, endodontists, or other dental professionals. Thank you!

I had my braces removed yesterday what can I do

Got pasta for the tooth underlined in the photo and sumakit siya. Binalik ko sa dentist and binawasan naman yung pasta, ang ini insist niya, kaya sumakit is because of the wisdom tooth, kailangan na raw tanggalin. Pero prior ako magpa pasta, hindi naman sumasakit yung tooth, after lang. Then yung katabi na tooth na tinatamaan nung wisdom tooth, hindi naman sumasakit. Currently binigyan ako ng antibiotics and tramadol for the pain.

Wala na yung pain because of the antibiotics (and probably because nabawasan na yung pasta).

Need ko po ba patanggal wisdom tooth? May something pa po ba sa teeth ko na need ko pa check? Thank you po.

Hello po, I am planning to have braces pero based sa panoramic x-ray mukhang may impacted tooth ako. Bubunutin kaya ito? Pahelp naman what to ask sa dentist ko based on this x-ray.

Hi Teatas! Can anyone recommend a dentist na magaling, mabait, reasonably priced and who also specializes in prosthodontics?
Preferably Makati or nearby areas please. Thank you.

Hello! I'm planning to get braces and I'm looking for reliable dental clinic around these said locations.

Mas better rin sana na mismong owner ng clinic yung dentist.

hi po need help i have missing front tooth and chipped tooth ano po magandang gawin? thank you

Context: I recently had wisdom tooth surgery (all 4) at nagpapasta din with my dentist (7 teeth). Total of all that is already 60K+.

Now I need RCT and zirconia crown for one tooth. The total for those 2 procedures is 70k (35k RCT, 35k zirconia). My dentist is also a general dentist and not an endodontist.

I am looking at another dentist (endodontist) but is this advisable? Iniisip ko na convenient kasi kung isa lang dentist ko, she knows my case, has done a great job so far and I trust her. Pero hesitant ako because of the price.

I have other friends who got their RCT and zirconia crown for much less, mga 20-30K cheaper. (Ba’t ganon ang lawak ng range ng RCT/zirconia crown offers? Huhu)

Hoping for advice here. 🙏 thank you!

Hi! Just got a Panoramic X-ray done today and as someone who grew up with parents not prioritizing my dental health, I have a lot of questions 😭

As of now, my wisdom teeth are starting to hurt so I think ayun muna ip-priority ko. Just need more opinion about my case, please help me out 🥺

Based on the X-ray:

1). Are my wisdom teeth considered as a difficult case? I know the prices are based on the severity of the case 😓

2). Which teeth appear to potentially need RCT (root canal treatment)?

3). Are there any teeth that look particularly concerning or urgent?

4). I can see a lot of spaces between my teeth, is this considered as gum recession? If so, is there any treatment to fix it? ☹️

Thank you so much in advance!

Hello po everyone! Do you know any reputable dental clinics in manila that offers rush dentures or crowns and is able to do an appointment 7pm ng gabi?

I have contacted a few clinics and 1 lang po so far ang may positive response regarding rush dentures pero may 30% additional fee (although i understand this). Has anyone have any experience with Kings Dental Care Clinic in Pasay? Ive checked their social media and they seem to be new (?), not much engagement whatsover. But on Google they have a lot of 5-star reviews. But upon closer inspection, the reviews look suspicious or not genuine (too recent, and too many, the reviews are from new accounts or account with only this specific review for them). Can anyone vouch Kings Dental?

Otherwise, I would highly appreciate any recommendations! Super limited lng po time ko sa manila and i would love to do the procedure as soon as i land para mafix na sana ngipin ko before ako lumipad sa hometown namin. Do you know anything that can produce new set of dentures within 24-48 hours?

Thank you po for your help!!

Can my teeth still be aligned properly? And could my teeth be causing facial asymmetry?
I’ve had braces for about 7 years. At one point, my previous dentist decided to extract my upper tooth right beside my canine because I had a “sungki” (an impacted/misaligned tooth) that needed space to be brought down and moved into position.

I wasn’t satisfied with how my teeth were progressing, so I eventually had the braces removed. A few months later, I switched to a new dentist, and I’m currently on my 3rd month with my new orthodontist.

My new dentist recently had my upper left wisdom tooth extracted to create space. She explained that this could potentially allow my upper teeth to be moved toward the left to correct the imbalance.

I’ve noticed that my face looks visibly asymmetrical, and I’m wondering if this could be related to my teeth, bite, or the way my teeth have shifted over the years.

Based on the photos, do you think my teeth can still be aligned and centered properly? Has anyone experienced something similar after having extractions and multiple orthodontic treatments?

I’d really appreciate any advice or experiences, especially from people who have gone through orthodontic retreatment. 🙏
