The sensation of teeth being "too high" after a filling occurs when the filling material is placed too close to the tooth's biting surface. This can happen if the tooth needs to be appropriately prepared before the filling or if the filling material shrinks as it hardens.

A toothache is usually caused by inflammation or infection in the tooth. The pain may be sharp, dull, or throbbing. It may be constant or may come and go.

Some home remedies may help soothe a sore tooth, including rinsing your mouth with warm salt water, using a cold compress on your cheek, and taking over-the-counter pain medication. You should also avoid eating hard or chewy foods and carefully brush and floss your teeth. You should see a dentist if your sore tooth does not improve after a few days.

It is not uncommon to experience gum pain after a crown is placed. This is typical because the height is slightly thicker than the surrounding tooth structure and can pressure the gums. However, the pain should resolve itself within a few days.

There is typically some discomfort when getting braces as your teeth and mouth adjust to the new hardware. However, this should go away after a short period. If you experience persistent pain, you should consult with your orthodontist.

The best time to visit the dentist is every six months for a routine cleaning and checkup.

The only way to know if your insurance policy covers dental work is to contact your insurance provider directly and ask them.

There is no definitive answer to this question as various dental insurance plans are available, and each one offers different coverage. For example, some good dental insurance plans may cover 100% of the cost of preventive care and basic procedures. In contrast, others may have a lower percentage of coverage or only cover preventive care. Therefore, comparing different dental insurance plans is essential to find one that meets your needs and budget.

Most patients report minimal pain during and after the dental implant procedure. However, each patient is different, and some may experience some discomfort.

There are a few reasons your dental implant might hurt when you chew. The most common sense is that the implant is not fully healed yet and is still in the process of osseointegration (fusing with the jawbone). It is also possible that the implant is placed in an area of the mouth under much stress when you chew, such as the back molars. In rare cases, the implant might be loose or have an infection. You should consult your dentist to find the cause of the pain is severe.

There is no definitive answer to this question as the cost of prosthetic teeth can vary greatly depending on several factors, such as the type of teeth being used, the dentist or dental technician performing the procedure, the location of the system, and the patient's insurance coverage. However, the cost of prosthetic teeth can generally range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars.

The cost of a tooth extraction can vary depending on the type of tooth that needs to be extracted. Simple extractions performed on teeth visible in the mouth can cost between $75 and $200. However, if the tooth is impacted or is not visible in the mouth, the cost of the extraction can be significantly higher.
