Brushing excessively or too hard is not good for your teeth or gums.
Start sprinkling baking soda on your toothpaste when you brush your teeth
That should work?
With time you will see results.

Open Question: How soon should I go to an endodontist?
Ms.Kitty Member since:July 31, 2008Total points:852 (Level 2)I went to the dentist last week and he gave me my dental plan. Basically, my X-rays show that I might have two abscess (one on my top front tooth and one on my bottom front tooth), BUT he told me that I need to get fillings on 3 of my teeth before going to the endodontist. I'm just wondering why I would need to get the fillings before going to the endodontist and if I should just go to the endodontist first. The root of my upper tooth is really starting to hurt.Answer Question

Open Question: Is it normal to have cracks in your teeth?
However, it's protected by enamel and it's sort of uncolored (a little bit white I suppose), and it holds the teeth in place. They may not be cracks, but more so of a rough line caused by erosion.
Don't worry, everybody has them.

Open Question: Jaw pain a month after wisdom teeth removal?
On Monday, they took x-rays, cleaned out all the medication that was in the socket, told me I was healing very well, and sent me on my way. They said it might be a little sore, but it felt great. On Thursday, all of a sudden, things changed. I noticed that my lower right jaw was hurting quite a bit and was swelling a little. The area is very tender, but I don't think it's red or warm.
I'm wondering what's going on. Suddenly, the range of motion in my jaw has decreased significantly and I can't chew on that side of my mouth again. It feels like a deep bruise.
According to the thermometer, I don't have a fever, but I feel as though I have one, and my stomach started hurting a few hours after my jaw started.
So, what gives? Do I have a virus, and my jaw is just a lingering effect of the dry socket? Or might I have a bone infection, and my pain tolerance is high?
I was on two rounds of antibiotics, and it felt 100% better, including my jaw, which had regained full range of motion. All of the pain just randomly started up again.
