I am four months pregnant and I am starting to have very sensitive gums.   Which is something I did not have before my pregnancy.  I notice my gums do bleed a little now when I brush my teeth even though I still regularly floss them.

I been wanting to whiten my teeth for this up coming event where many photos will be taken.  I know it may not be good for me to use whiten strips while pregnant but some one told me I could use hydrogen peroxide.

How safe is that really?  Just not sure?  I do not want to use anything that is not safe but would like to have nice teeth while I am pregnant.   Should I just forget about it until after the baby is born or is there anything I can do?

My son needs to have four baby teeth pulled. For some reason they are not just coming out and the adult teeth are starting to cut though behind his baby teeth.

I been taking my son to see a dentist and paying for the total cost but now it is starting to be more then I can afford. Do you have any dental insurance plans that can help my son without waiting periods for extractions.

I have a newborn so I am still a few months a way from his teething stage.  However I would like to know if there are any signs that well let me know that he is about start teething?  Any tips on teething?  I hear that teething rings and Orajel does not always work.  Is that true?

My almost two year old still like to thumb suck when he sleeps.   I stop him when I see him wake doing it and he pretty good about not going back.  But when he sleep is thum is in is mouth.  I do remove it carefully as to not wake him but after a few minutes he back to sucking his thumb.

Should I be consured about this?  I worry about his teeth not coming in right or geting out of place but I do not want to upset my son over this issue.  Not sure what the right age is for him to stop thumb sucking.

How do I get my four year old to like brushing his teeth or at least not make it into an issue every time we go to brush his teeth?  Any help tips?  I tell him it is good for him and he does not want to have black teeth but he does not get it I guess.   I show him how much I like to brush but he just said he does not like to.   Advise please

I would like to know how to remove a baby tooth from my dog.  Now I know this is a people site but you been really great about answering my prior questions about my daughter oral health care I am hoping you can help me here too.

I just got this dog about two months ago and had him spayed.  The vet told me that I need to keep an eye on his canine teeth on the top because they were still baby teeth that should be coming out soon.    I have started to notice the adult teeth coming in but it not really pushing the baby tooth out more like just coming out on the side of it.

I am here because I asked a pet site that only kept telling be that I would need to have a vet pull it which would cost me over 150.00 since I have already priced it out.   I do not have that much extra money is there another way to make the baby tooth come out on it own?

The tongue is most often forgotten in your child oral health care.  It is important to also clean your child tongue.   Because while brushing flossing will help to remove bacteria from teeth and gums, bacteria can still live on the surface of  the tongue which can be a causing factor to bad breath.

Remember total oral health care for you and your children is important.  Teaching your child good oral health care from the start will better prepare them to take good care of their teeth as an adult.  And one of the lucky side benefits for you may be having lower dental bills.

Do not forget to see your dentist at least twice a year and to keep your dental cost low make sure you have dental insurance for you and your family.

I have a one year old and between him and all my bills I do not have any money left for my own dental care.  The dental I get only covers for me to have teeth pulled but nothing more then that.  I do not want to pull a tooth that only needs a filling.  Were can I go for low to free cost dental services?

Where can a single mom of two children go to get free to very low cost dental care?   I have very bad teeth and have lost my smile years ago.  I have four missing front teeth and a tooth that been hurting me off and on for the past three months.

I do work but I do not get any dental benefits.  I can not afford much but can make payment of $55.00 a month if I could find a dentist that is willing to work with me without wanting me to have a credit card.

I am embarrassed about my smile so I try not to.   Even so my son friend asked why his mommy does not have front teeth.  I as so embarrassed I wanted to cry.

I need some help please.   I have a six year old daughter and my husband left us over a year ago.  He is a dead beat dad and does not help me out at all.   I am filing for divorce but right now we are still married.  While he is living with his current girl friend and will have nothing to do with us.

Any way that goes into a long story not need to be told.  My problem is I have been working a part time day job while my daughter is in school.  My mom helps take care of my daughter since I drop  her off at my moms house really early in the morning and she take her to school and I pick her up after my job.  I do not have much money.

So far my husband as not dropped us from his medical that he has though his job but who knows if he will do so.  He does not have dental and I need to take our daughter for her dental appointment.  The few times I called him about this he said if I want to take her to the dentist then I have to pay for it.  I can’t keep getting help from my parents and I can not afford it on my own. Please were can I go for free to low cost dental care for my daughter?
