I have VERY sensitive teeth. I've tried Crest White Strips but they make my teeth hurt and the whitening stuff burns my throat! Are there any effective systems that will not agitate my sensitive teeth?

How can the whitening stuff burn your throat. YOu are not supposed to swallow that stuff. Try using a sensitive teeth toothpaste for a couple weeks before you try whitening your teeth. Since you had bad luck with crest call your dentist and ask what he recommends for YOU.

This sounds like a homework question - are you studying to be a dental nurse? I'm assuming then that you are using Levison. Have a look at the link for some good (animated) dental education.

Briefly, you want to mention white spot lesion(decay only in the enamel & reversable if treated), slow progress due to the hardness of the enamel. Decay spreading out undermining the enamel once it reaches the dentine (because it is softer therefore rate of decay is faster). Once decay in dentine, sensitivity to hot/cold. If decay allowed to reach pulp, very painful, possible death of tooth, abscess.

My teeth are gross, I have lost mainly all of them, upper and lower. I can't afford to get them fixed or dentures. I will not smile, will not eat in front of others. I hate that I can't smile or eat.

if you have health insurance then that should cover most of it. good luck and god bless.

I had my tonsils taken out last year due to enlarged and white foul smelly particles was coming out. After tonsilectomy I have tightnesss of throat as if someone is choking me and now I am getting back the bad breath only on the right side inside mouth. It feels like something is in my throat.

Your throat muscles are inflamed. Simply eat something cool (like ice cream), or take medication. It wont last more than a few weeks.

how to prevent black spots which are appearing in molar and premolar, my wisedom tooth looks bad, but i guess i can atleast prevent in molar and premolar

The best way to prevent dental caries is to eat foods without sugar, get a regular check-up and cleaning, brush and floss regularly, and to get the top of your molars and premolars sealed once they come into the mouth. It is also a good idea to drink water with fluoride and use a fluoridated toothpaste.

I know you can't get HIV from just kissing(with the toungue), but I wonder if you have caries(in your teeth), can you get infected?
Are there any diseases you can get from kissing(except possible HIV/AIDS)?
If I have CARIES(teeth) and the girl DOES NOT bleed, can I get diseases from her saliva?

How did you learn you can't get HIV from kissing? Minimal blood contact is enough to risk infection. All it takes is a tiny cut on you and a tiny cut on the partner (assuming, of course, it is just the one hehe), and there is a risk there. Of course, its very slight, but any contact between the person's bloods, and there is a risk. Make sure you get tested regularly, for STDs; HIV, chlamydia…
