I have a stinging pain in my gum when I drink hot/cold drinks. What is this?

September 28th, 2011
Q.

Hi Doc
I’ve been having pain on my right upper and lower teeth line that has been bothering me for some time now.Whenever i drink too cold or too hot fluids i get a sharp stinging pain on the right side teeth.
What do you think could the problem be?
Could it simply be because of the plaque buildup? Who should i visit for this, is there any particular type of dental practice?
Please reply.
Thanks
very much

My teeth really hurt but I don’ have a NHS dentist help?

August 19th, 2011
Q.

I am a 27-year-old single mother with periodontal gum disease. My teeth are in really bad shape, and the pain is excruciating. I haven’t got a NHS dentist and I am on a very tight budget. I know that there’s nothing I can do to save my teeth, but could you please let me know if there’s anything I can do to just reduce the amount of pain I’m in? Everyday’s getting harder, and I’m at the end of my rope. I don’t mean to sound so desperate, but I guess I am. I would appreciate any advice you could give.
