Avatar n tn Hello, welcome to MedHelp. Pyruia means simply pus in he urine and Bacteriuria means bacteria in the urine with no symptoms. If you had symptoms, you'd be diagnosed with a urinary tract infection. Normally antibiotics are given which clears it right up. https://www.sciencedirect.
Avatar f tn Teeth grinding could indicate a problem anywhere in the digestive system, not just the mouth. If he has mouth pain, or arthritis in the TMJ joint your vet could try giving an analgesic called Metacam, or a short course of steroids called Prednisolone. And, place your cat on a higher quality all canned diet. Losing 14 pounds in two weeks may indicate a much more serious disease process occurring in your cat, I advise a complete work up if he has not had one already prior to the dentistry.
Avatar n tn t work as well as in a younger dog. Try to get your dog to drink more water, especially in the summer season by placing some ice cubes in the water, or putting down separate bowls of dilute pedialyte, Gatorade, or even dilute vegetable, chicken, or other broths. Some dog's prefer running water the best, so purchase a doggie or kitty water fountain. They are not too expensive and worth it if it keeps your dog hydrated.
Avatar n tn They are unlike cold sores (caused by a herpesvirus) in that they are bacterial in nature but they are similar to them in that they can be caused by stress, allergies, medications. They can also be genetic. It could just be that her body is reacting to the stress of not only losing the teeth but also from being anesthetized and even the pain that she was going through prior to the removals. You can ask your vet what is safe to use on canker sores in a dog's mouth.
Avatar m tn What specifically do you want to know about those drugs?
Avatar f tn My thinking was more in line with nickel, stainless steel and metals of that type. The titanium and cobalt crome are used more frequently in surgical implants (not dentistry) because they hold less of an allergenic responses. Regardless, any allergic symptoms would manifest within a short time after the surgery, not years later. Headaches, vomiting, inflammation would likely have keyed a pyhsician to any problems.
Avatar n tn I was at work on Saturday night and a customer worked in Dentistry- he told me I needed a course of Augmentin 875 for 10 days. I went to a Pharmacy and explained the situation and they sold me the course. I started on Saturday Night and today (Monday) i've woken up with the swelling right up to under my eye. Am I expecting the antibiotics to work too fast and will it go away over the ten days? I feel fine otherwise- just very concerned and a little scared...
Avatar f tn Are you looking for laser dentistry in Walden? Many practices offer laser dentistry near you as they provide effective and efficient treatments. Lasers are extremely precise and will allow your dentist to preserve healthy tissues compared to traditional scalpels. The lasers are also sterile, which minimizes the risk of developing an infection and will also reduce the total recovery time. Lasers also provide a pain-free way of providing treatment and can fully eliminate the need for anesthesia.
Avatar f tn I read your point and find that it was very bad experience for you. Most of the people visit to a dentist who does not have experience in sedation dentistry. It is important to choose a dentist who has good experience in sedation dentistry or a relevant degree. One should study about sedation dentistry to clear the confusions in mind. A lot of guides are available online that will help a lot to know the benefits & procedure of sedation dentistry.
Avatar m tn I have one root canaled tooth and I am slated to have at least two more, maybe a third in the next couple of months. Two teeth are experiencing irreversable pulpitis and the other is possibly headed that way. Anything to be worried about by having a mouth with multiple root canals?
Avatar m tn Do your own research - google amalgam health effects, also search for a holistic dentist in your area. Silver fillings are banned in France.
Avatar m tn In some parts of the world little effort or even no effort is taken to sterilize dental equipment. Yes it's possible to get Hepatitis C from dental tools that haven't been sterilized. Take the time and ask the dentist how the tools are sterilized. Go to a dentist you know practices sterilizing all the dental tools between patients.
Avatar f tn My son is very strong n hates his hair being cut, eyes being checked n teeth being cleaned. Now has cavaties...anyone have their kids have sediative dentistry. He needs an hour n half worth of work n think might be least traumatic if he is fully sedated? I have no experience.
Avatar n tn It can be effective, but if the dentist uses this technique exclusively I would be cautious. In my opinion, muscle tension is a result of disc displacements in the TMJ and there are many other complicating factors that should not be overlooked. When dentists buy the necessary technology to do NM dentistry they take training to go with it. That training alone is not adequate to treat all the the TMJ problems out there. This has been my experience.
Avatar n tn I would rather recommend a periapical x-ray (small dental x-ray) along with occlusal view x-ray used in dentistry as they can give meticulous details of the region involved. Also, they will even help evaluate the healing achieved so far. As your history was very troublesome hence healing may be delayed. This retreated back tooth could also be the notorious element in delayed healing of the area. Get x-rays done to clear out the picture.
Avatar m tn If you are dealing with a missing tooth, yellow teeth, teeth with multi color or any other teeth problems, cosmetic dentistry can be a boon for you. It is quite necessary that a person's teeth are in good condition, aligned properly for a great smile which is a way to self-confidence. One should visit a cosmetic dentistry.
Avatar n tn yes it is very possible. i have dentistry as # 2 on my list as most common means of transmission after IVDU.
Avatar n tn ****, If anyone can sympathize with you, I can. I've had three major caine reactions, the last landing me in the ER and everyone around me thought I had a stroke. I was pretty scared. That was after allergy testing, and an MD who when called, said "I would have no way of predicting that reaction." Two other allergists have suggested using Lidocaine with no epi or preservatives and premedicating with steroids and benedryl the day before and day of....
Avatar f tn The dentistry of teeth and jaw and treatment regarding that refers to orthodontic dentistry. One can correct that malpositioned teeth and jaw as well as prevent its causes. But affordable treatments should be give preference and one can get a wonderful smile through it.
Avatar n tn Individual crowns are made differently than crowns that are part of a bridge. the fact that your dentistry was toyed with and adjusted after it was finished in my opinion makes it more prone to failure after it is permanently cemented. For example, it's been in the glazing oven at least one extra time, and it was cut after it was completed---this creates the liklihodd of microfracture in the porcelain. these two things weaken the restorations..
