I Have Got My Gingivitis Under Control But My Tooth Is Becoming Loose. Can You Help Me?

June 17th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Mitsas. I hope you can help me. I had this gingivitis and I am going to my dentist very regularly. Every three months or so. There is no bleeding any more. I have one tooth which is looser than before. And now I am getting another one coming loose. My gums are not very healthy. I told my dentist and they said they are better than before. I have diabetes as well. I am only 55 years old. Is there anything else you could help me with? My diabetes is under control. I don’t take any junk food and I clean my teeth regularly and I don’t smoke. Thank you for your time.

I’ve Been On Anti-Depressants And My Gums Have Turned Milky White. Have You Heard Of This Before?

June 2nd, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Mitsas. I’m having a bit of a problem, as ever since taking anti-depressants I have noticed that my gums are turning a milky white colour, only around the front of the mouth and they do bleed slightly. Can this type of medication have an effect like this on my gums? It just seems a bit of a coincidence that this is happening as I’m taking the medication. Is there anything you can suggest please? Thank you for your time.
