I Am Looking For A Practice Which Offers BOST Treatment. Do You Know Of Any?

July 17th, 2014
Q.

Hi. Do you know of any practice that does BOST treatment? I have sore gums and have had different diagnosis from 4 different professionals including 2 dentists, 1 mouth specialist and 1 periodontics practice. I have been recommended for planning by the local periodontic specialist but want to investigate alternatives. The sore gums started about 9 months ago. Some days are worse than others but it is not preventing me from eating etc. I have tried mouthwash provided by my dentist, had antibiotics, 2 scales and polishes and gingigel. Thanks.

Can You Give Me Advice On How To Avoid Gum Disease, So I Don’t Have To Worry About It?

May 6th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Mitsas. I’m really worried. Do sore, irritating, painful, sensitive, and bleeding while brushing often indicate that you may have gum disease, or could it be gingivitis? I’ve been wanting to know the symptoms for a long time. Will you hopefully give me advice on how to avoid this disease, so I don’t have to worry about anything? Please help me so my paranoia of this disease can be reduced. Thank you for taking the time to offer me advice.

My front tooth is sensitive to cold and gums are red and sore. What is the cause?

January 4th, 2012
Q.

Hello Jose,

Ive recently gotten over a nasty head cold and am experiencing mild upper jaw pain I was thinking that this was my sinuses as Ive had that happen before. However, I also have slightly red, but sore gums above two teeth on that side, a few teeth in from my front ones, and one in particular is sensitive to touch or cold air. I first noticed its sensitivity when I went to a hygienist appointment 3 weeks ago and the scrapping caused a sharp sensitive pain. I go to the dentist once a year and the hygienist every 6 months religiously and try to take care of my teeth, so would be suprised if this was cavity pain. I have noticed an increase in the sensitivity of all of my teeth recently perhaps because I had to change from my electric toothbrush to a normal one for a while? Or do you think this is the start of gum disease?
I’m 27, and have no history of gum disease…had no fillings either.
Thanks!
