Periodontal decay with an abscess tooth possible cause for seizures?

---

I've been wondering this for some time now, but I recently had a first molar pulled and have been getting over something doctors have not be able to explain, outside of a mental disorder *rolls eyes* and a sinus infection (something I have never had before). I was wondering if the abscess and periodontal which was only found on xray could have caused so many problems?
No its not a cause  (+ info)

tell me something about hypertension type2 to consider periodontal abscess?

---

i dunno exactly what you're asking
but if you're asking whether it's safe to have an operation for periodontal abcess if you have hypertension and diabetes, the answer is yes if your blood pressure and glucose are well controlled.
An operation can be performed safely if your blood pressure doesn't exceed 160/90 and blood glucose is below 180-200. But each doctor who performs an anesthesy knows when it's safe or not to do it.

an infection can cause blood sugar to go up, and also the blood pressure.
hehe, next time be more precise when you're asking a question  (+ info)

Can bruxism cause a periodontal abscess?

---

I have a habit of clenching my teeth. I've been to the dentist and she told me that there was a mark (like a bruise around my gum) but didn't take any x-rays, and that was two weeks ago. The tooth (upper left bicuspid) gets sensitive if I yell, laugh really hard, and when I was cleaning my room up yesterday I would feel some pressure if I bent down to pick anything up. It feels more relieved when I brush my teeth, especially around that area. It does not react to hot or cold foods/liquids. I really hope it's not anything serious, but could this be a periodontal abscess?
if it becomes painful then id say that you have an abscess.
also over time the griping of your teeth may lead to jaw locking and the wearing down of your teeth as well as possibly more abscesses. you should ask your dentist about getting a gum shield which prevents the teeth being worn down and help minimise the effects of clenching
hope this helps:D  (+ info)

periodontal abscess?swelling over a tooth?

---

i had an acute pain in one of my upper teeth i went to my dentist and he said that i had a deep pocket about 6-7 mm. he cured the pocked stops the pain .after days a hard bony lump far over the tooth appears i don't know what it could be now i had this lump for about 4 months i would like to know what is it please help thanks female 38 years old
It could be an impacted tooth, which is a tooth that is growing inside your gums and your baby tooth hasn't fallen yet. You should get a full x-ray taken. Then you have the choice between getting braces ($$$), or have both the adult tooth and baby tooth pulled and get a bridge (cheaper, but more hassle).  (+ info)

Sorry, I drank a lot of coffee before I took this. I am going to a dentist for a check up soon and I am just trying to prepare myself. And a molar (not pictured) at the very back/top of my mouth could be abscessed. The said molar has a crown on it and was abscessed years ago so I had to get a root canal on it. It has a bitter odor now. Can't say that I'm in much pain. Might have been for a short while but didn't go to the dentist (no insurance etc).
Pics are not clear, so a proper assessment cannot be made, further more it needs to be assessed clinically and radiograhically  (+ info)

What has been your experience with periodontal disease and deep cleaning therapy?

---

I just recently found out I have periodontal disease. Soon I will be having the scaling and planing done. I have to admit I am a bit nervous about the procedure. But also nervous about how to take care of my teeth properly once it is done.

Please share your experiences with me. Or if you are a dental professional I would love to hear your advice.

Thanks!
Scaling and root planing can be an uncomfortable procedure. You will be anesthetised for the procedure since the hygienist will be scaling your teeth below the gum line. I've had it done and I'm also in the dental field. What you can expect is to be a little tender and possibly sore in the area afterwards for maybe a day at most. I'm sure you're hygienist or doctor explained to you why you were diagnosed with periodontal disease. It is not as uncommon as you think it is.
After you've completed the treatment, you will have to be diligent with your home care. That means brushing and flossing twice daily. I've found that using an electric toothbrush has helped me with effectively brushing my teeth. You should ask your hygienist which brand would benefit you. Your hygienist will also recommend that you been seen for periodontal maintenance cleanings every 3-4 months. Please keep up with those as they are just as important as your home care.

How often does periodontal scaling have to be done?

---

My mom is having a lot of dental problems right and has had periodontal disease for sometime but was seeing a dentist who wasn't really treating the problem. Now she is seeing a new dentist who just did scaling under the gums in June. He is saying she needs it again? Is it normal to have this procedure done this often?
if the condition does not improve yes scaling can be done as often as every 3-4 months.

Your mother has to try to maintain her hygiene. Sometimes a periodontal disease can be a manifestation of a systemic condition, such as diabetes. The best treatment for a periodontal disease is maintenance. If there's no improvement, or is getting worse another round of scaling is needed. In worse cases, surgeries is indicated.
good luck  (+ info)
