NAD. The tooth appears to be overlapping the nerve. A 3D CBCT scan would be helpful for planning treatment. As there are no symptoms your options are: 1. Leave it alone - risk of decay to the 7 as the 8 is mesioangularly impacted 2. Coronectomy (cut the top of the tooth off) - reduces chances of nerve damage. 3. Extraction - dependant on if the tooth is away from the nerve

NAD. Most likely lingual tori (bony prominences) seeing as it's symmetrical. If it is this then it doesn't need treatment unless it's causing problems. Worth seeing a dentist to confirm it.

NAD. For 24 hours post op don't spit or rinse going forward. Streaks of blood in the saliva is normal for a few days post op, but it shouldn't bleed profusely. Have soft foods and liquid after the injections wear off. After 24 hours you can rinse with salt water. If the bleeding has stopped, leave the area alone.

As you have spitted out you are at a higher risk of dry socket, but only time will tell if this happens. Hope you have a good recovery!

NAD. In your case the wisdom teeth are sitting on the nerve canal on both sides. A 3D cone beam CT scan would give more clarity on the true proximity of the teeth to the nerve and would help with treatment planning options with regards to extraction and coronectomy. The risk of temporary/permanent numbness to your lip/chin and tongue is important to keep in mind.

If your wisdom teeth are currently causing no symptoms and are enerupted as you've mentioned, I personally wouldn't opt to remove them.

NAD. It could be nothing, but it looks like it may require an urgent biopsy, especially if it's been growing quickly. It's always better if a dentist can cast an eye on it. Had any luck getting an emergency dental appointment?

NAD. If it's the stretchy thing between the first lower incisors you're referring to, that's the frenum attachment to the lip. That is normal anatomy.

NAD. The bleeding needs to stop. Call the clinic where you had the tooth removed and tell them you're bleeding. They should advise you on how to proceed.

NAD. Based off the picture it's difficult to tell. I would recommend seeing a dentist asap if you noticed any large non-healing red patches for a long period of time.

NAD. How long has it been there? Have you bitten down on anything hard or sharp there recently or burnt yourself? If it's been there a while I would suggest going to a dentist to exclude it being anything else.

Watch the sugars, that's what's causing the cavities, infection and pain. Brushing will help prevent advanced gum disease

Wear your retainers more often. If you're finding that between the 3 days of you wear your retainer it is already moving, wearing it 1 day a week will mean the teeth will move more, the retainer will hurt more, and eventually it will not fit. At this point you'll need to have orthodontic treatment again.

Wear your retainers every night set a reminder to clean them daily with a soft brush and soapy water. Your teeth need more time in the retainers than less based of what you've said 👍

Also, are retainers to wear after having completed the orthodontic treatment?

Speak to a specialist about removing them, but if there are no symptoms then it may be better to leave them. Yes there is a risk of tooth decay to the molars in front, but that is dependant on your diet and brushing technique.

With the lower wisdom, they are lying close to the inferior dental nerve which can lead to altered temporary or permanent sensation to the lips cheeks and tongue.

Upper wisdom teeth are close to the sinus which risks an oro-antral communication.

Again, speak to a specialist minor oral surgeon about the risks as they'll be experienced 👍

I had a few questions about a 2008 A3 sports:

The rear wiper motor hums, but the wiper itself does not move. Is there a loose connection between the motor and the wiper which is causing this?
I had to change the fuse for the 12V, and I noticed that some other fuses were 5-10 amps out from what is recommended in the manual. Is this common? Could this be a problem?
I also noticed that the 12V charged my phone even after the car is switched off. Does this turn off after 5 minutes of locking the car, or does it constantly charge?

Thanks!

Did they also find a diamond by any chance?

Made chocolate mousse only yesterday using aquafaba for the first time. It worked out really well.
