Me asked:
I am going to the dentist first thing Monday morning to have him look at what I am almost 100% sure is an abscessed tooth. I'm assuming that he will prescribe me antibiotics, but how long after first seeing me will he likely preform a root canal on the tooth? Is it possible that if I see him Monday, he will work on it by Wednesday? Obviously Thanksgiving is on Thursday, I have family plans on Friday and then I'm back to school on Sunday.

What are the chances of this? How soon will he work on it, most likely?

Teeth are examples of solid matter. When you eat hot food or
drink cold water, your teeth will expand or contract depending
on the temperature inside of your mouth. What would a dentist
need to consider when filling a cavity?

HoneyGirl asked:
I work at a preschool/afterschool program for troubled kids and we want to have a dentist come in and make a presentation about dental health. I'm not sure what my first step is. I've looked at the ADA website and my local dental society website, but didn't find anything. Should I just ask my dentist to do it? Or is there some other way?

Frosty-pants asked:
If a dental hygienist notices that a dentist forgot to put on a fresh pair of gloves between patients, would it be okay for her to say something to the dentist (in front of the patient)? What would be the best way to solve this problem? The dentist has done this on occasion before.

Here in the U.S. we have seperate oral surgery offices from the regular dentist, but most of the professionals have a DDS degree, so why are they a seperate practice from a dentist?

nyscof asked:
Insurance companies cover fluoride treatments at dentists' offices, usually without question. Fluoride treatments are only recommended for people at high risk of tooth decay. 80% of all tooth decay occurs in 20% of the population, mostly lower-income Americans who never actually see a dentist. So, I wonder how many unnecessary fluoride treatments are bought and paid for by insurance companies and individuals?

My question: What is the total cost of all the fluoride treatments administered in the United States, paid by insurance, government programs and/or individuals?
