Does anyone knows how much will it cost it get my gaps filled?
Answer:
You'll have to be much more specific. It depends on the number of "gaps" as you call them. Is it one gap or two that can be addressed with crowns or veneers or will it require braces/orthodontics? Maybe even implants?
Does anyone know where i can find pictures of the proper tooth brushing process? online somewhere?

Does anyone know what booty floss is?
Please tell me. It sounds disgusting but it might not be.
Answer:
it's a special floss for your butt called butt floss. It is also recommended to floss your teeth immedietly after you use it on your booty.
a thong.
I believe that would be a thong or g-string.and yes it is gross...nothin like walkin around with a permanent wedgie...
If you have to ask, you're far to young to be asking.

It's a G-String bathing suit.
Far from disgusting, but may get stuck between your teeth.

Does anyone know the best pain relief from the growth of a wisdom tooth?
I've had no problems with the top two, but now that the bottom one is coming through, it really hurts. Its only been two days so its to early to see it, i can just feel it under my gum. Please help!
Answer:
I'd say Ibuprofen of some sort. It helps to reduce pain, but it's also an anti-inflammatory.
Get those suckers removed!
dose it hurt i mite have to get 4 pulled ?
Ibuprofen worked best for me, along with rising with warm salt water a few times a day. Good luck!
When my wisdom teeth were cutting through, I used Clove Oil... put it on the affected area using a cotton bud... but be careful, it really numbs everything and can almost feel a bit like it's burning when you first put it on. So, watch your tongue and cheeks cuz it may be uncomfortable! Oh, and it doesn't taste too nice!But, all things aside, it really helped to give a bit of relief.Obviously, you can take painkillers, like Ibuprofen, but take advice from a pharmacist or GP.Hope that helps! I have every sympathy for you.!
well to get some relief try frozen grapes. its a good for u snack that helps relieve the pain.
that or oragel
calgel or bonjela are good .x
oh owch. Bonjela will help for a little while, but it's not a permanent solution. Try holding a facecloth with ice in it against your jaw, that'll help the swelling to go down. But get to your dentist asap, you might need to get some antibiotics. Most of the time the pain will subside in a few days time, but if it doesn't, the dentist will be able to help. He might make a small cut in your gum (you won't feel it) to release the pressure and help your tooth come through.
I had mine pulled as they hurt so much I was in tears-if it gets bad go see dentist otherwise try:
-Painkillers: I have anadin triple action
-Corsodal mouth wash
-Rinsing with really cold water-for some reason this helped I think because of swelling.Hope u feel better x
WOW, we are in the SAME EXACT boat! I know exactly what you are going though. I didn't even know when my top 2 came in, I didn't feel a thing but the bottom 2 are just cuttin in and they are KILLING me. I am actually going to see the oral surgeon at 4 today, my dentist says I need to have them removed! I've been taking Motrin, that helps me...I've also been on antibiotics for the past week b/c I had an infection. My dentist also gave me a prescription for Vicadin which is GREAT! Go see your dentist you may have an infection and he may suggest pulling, but in the mean time he can give you something for the pain and the infection if you have one.
Get them removed. That will slove the pain.
Ouch. I feel for you.
I remember when mine were coming through I realised why babies cry so much when they're teething. lol. I even considered by a teething ring or something.
I found clove oil %26 bongella helped to ease the pain.
I eventually had mine removed though.
Personally I've never understood the point of wisdom teeth. We managed okay without them for years and I'm not aware of them giving me any wisdom. lol.

Does anyone know of where I can get cosmetic dental care at a very low price?
I would even be willing to be an example case for a dental office! I have very good insurance, just not enough to cover all of my work that needs to be done.
Answer:
You can definately check our your local universities and see what kind of dental programs they have and see if they have med students who are about to graduate work on people who don't have the money or ins. won't cover full price for regular cosmetic work. It's cheap and I believe they let you do payments. The dentists/professors are there observing so it's not like they do it themselves. One of my friends had his teeth worked on here in Dallas at Baylor, and they look really good... Check it out.
Border town.Mexico.
I know some people that went to Mexico to get dental work for cheap. But that would only apply if you live close to the border otherwise you would incur travel expenses.
mexico
HELLO,
FYI DENTISTRY IS ALL COSMETIC. THERE ARE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF QUALITY AND SUCCESS OF THE FINAL RESULT, HOWEVER.
A DENTAL UNIVERSITY WOULD GIVE YOU VERY GOOD RESULTS.
YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT HAVING DENTAL INSURANCE DOESN'T MEAN THAT THE WORK HAS NO FEE. THINK OF INSURANCE AS HAVING A COUPON FOR THE TOTAL COST. YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE TO PAY YOUR DEDUCTIBLE.
if u live near a dental school you can sometimes volunteer for the students. when i was a kid i had braces this way and cavities filled.;)michele
Thailand.But remember... cheap now, means HUGELY expensive later.
Check this out:http://mybenefitsplus.com/wpaul...It may save you a lot of money.But first verify availability of dentists in your area and the cost for their services by calling them.
I would be very cautious of going to Mexico (or any other country) for dental work. It may sound offensive, but there are lots of scams geared toward people from the states especially in Mexico, and if they know you are coming just for treatment, they will know that you will have next to no recourse (or ability if you end up in an ER or worse).Here is a site where you can view a host of dental plan providers listed by region and most offer significant discounts for cosmetic procedures. They are discount plans, not insurance. http://www.consumersadvantagedentalcare.

Does anyone know of any remedies that stop tooth decay?
Answer:
Once a cavity forms, the only remedy is to go to a dentist. There are NO over-the-counter remedies you can buy that will remove all of the decayed part of the tooth, then seal it off to the way the tooth is supposed to be shaped. Only a dentist and his instruments and restoratives can do that.The biggest cause of tooth decay is failure to remove the sticky white bacterial plaque from your teeth. Whenever there is plaque on your teeth, the germs in the sticky white crud are just happily rotting away at your enamel and attacking your gums.So in order to prevent tooth decay, you want to make sure there is as little plaque as possible on your teeth at all times. That means you need to brush thoroughly (teeth, tongue, gums) to remove plaque after each meal, and before bed. Avoid sugary foods, because the germs in plaque grows best on sugar. Floss every night, and get any existing cavities filled (cavities are festering holes serving as reservoirs for the germs). Get a checkup every 6 months to catch cavities while they are small, easy and inexpensive to fix.Hope this helps.
brush your teeth
check up with dentist
mouthwash
BRUSH,FLORIDE, OR EXTRACT
Remedies don't prevent, they treat. Preventives don't treat, they prevent. Brush your teeth for 3 minutes three times a day, cut down on or avoid sugary foods and drinks, floss your teeth, use an dental rinse and see your dentist every 6 months. These are preventive measures. The only remedy is to have a dentist remove the caries (decay).
brush, floss, go to dentist, use mouthwash, which you should be doing anyways since it is normal oral hygine.
once a tooth starts decaying, you have to get a filling. There is no remedy.
tooth decay is mostly cause by acid,so try bruhing your teeth after eating, especially when you drinks orange juice, lemonade etc.You should alwaystry drinking water after each meal.
The best remedy is prevention! Brush regularly with a flouride toothpaste, rinse with a plaque fighter and floss after meals. Once decay has begun there's nothing you can do to stop it. The cavity will just get bigger and bigger until the pain drives you to a Dentist who will fill it!
Use a fluoride toothpaste and avoid food which could cause cavities
1) Fluoride. If you have a particularly bad case, you can get a prescription from your dentist.2) Co Enzyme Q10 has been shown to support gum tissue, the health of which is necessary for healthy teeth. I know of only one toothpaste that contains Co Q10 and I use it and get great results:
Single tube - http://www.marketamerica.com/pulse99/ind...
six pack - http://www.marketamerica.com/pulse99/ind...
I used to work for a dentist and he would say to use flouride. You can by a mouthwash from walmart called ACT and it can harden up the soft spots.
Your dentist can put a seal on certain teeth. It lasts for about three years. I had it done for my kids. It is milky in color and keeps any food out of the crevices of molars.
Brush Your teeth and go to a Dentist!!
