Dental Question- pain, possible cavities, teeth shifting.?
I have never had a cavity in my life, until about 2 years ago my dentist said I had possible cavities coming in. I didn't need to get anything done then, just a check up in a couple months. Well, I moved- and next thing I know, it's almost a year and a half, and I haven't gone back. Now I am experiencing slight pain in one of my molars ( I had wisdom teeth removed a few years ago, ) The pain started after I flossed a couple nights ago. It's not really pain, its more of a tightness. Right near the "tight" tooth, I have an ulcer on the inside of my gums. I get these occassionally, due to salt. Second problem- When I was 13 I got braces, They were on for like 2 years, and then my office went bankrupt, never heard from again. My braces ended up falling apart, and no other office would take me because I had no records of having braces. I never got a retainer, and my teeth have begun shifting. Can I get a retainer to prevent further shifting until I can save for invisalign??

Oh my. I am terribly sorry about the whole braces situation. Well, first thing is first. The "tight" molar might possibly be a cavity that has rotted the tooth or has gone too far deep. I suggest you go back to your dentist and get that checked out because the problem could be much more severe and can lead to unnecessary extraction.
