Cancer patients? Why would cancer patients need Accutane?

Hi Pamela Sue, Are your gums still bloody? If I was you, I'd ice my mouth and take some ibuprofen for pain and inflammation AFTER the bleeding has stopped. Your gums are probably really irritated! I'm so sorry this happened to you :(

I'm sorry your experience with resty was so bad! Do you think juvederm would be any better?

Hi Jennace, Most doctors say swelling after rhinoplasty can last upto a year, so you will likely need to wait several months before you will definitively see things start to even out (IF they even out). If they don't even out by about month 8, I would talk to your doctor to see if a revision is needed. Good luck!

Hi weeping baby, Sorry for the delay in replying. Well, my bond isn't pretty but it's functional and well affixed, so I've just left it alone for now. When I have the funds, I might get veneers, but I can't get just one because I have some permanent striated staining on my teeth from being on antibiotics as a kid so a single veneer won't match any of my teeth (another reason getting several veneers is a good idea for me). My ultimate fix is going to be several thousand dollars, and I'm not in a position to spend that much just yet. I'm dealing with the one ugly tooth. When I go for it though, I'm definitely going to see a cosmetic dentist who specializes in aesthetics. In your case, since the bond is unstable, I'd do one of two things: 1) If you didn't have the bonding done that long ago, I'd go back to the dentist and say "Look, you did a bad job because my tooth isn't functional, and I need you to fix it." 2) If it's been awhile ago or you don't think your current dentist is capable of ever getting it right, go see someone else. A cosmetic dentist who specializes in cosmetic dentistry will be more expensive but you'll probably be quite happy with the long term solution both from a functionality and aesthetics standpoint. Good luck!
