What are the ways to prevent gum bleeding and bad breath?
Hello doctor,
I suffer from bleeding gums and bad mouth odor. I brush my teeth twice every day, but I do not floss. Can you please suggest to me why this is happening? Please suggest some good toothpaste and mouthwash for me. Can you also please tell me which is better, normal floss or water floss? And how often should I do it? Should I also do certain tests for my bleeding gums? I do not have hypertension, diabetes, or any other health condition. Please help.

Can a filling be replaced if part of the tooth is broken?
Hi doctor,
I have lost a filling present on my bottom left tooth next to my wisdom tooth. Some portion of the tooth has broken away. I do not have pain in that tooth now. Is it right to have a new filling on that tooth or can I have a dental crown on that tooth? Is it possible to have a crown on that tooth? Is it a complicated procedure?
