I Just had all 4 of my wisdom teeth out on Wednesday, can I fly to San Francisco tomorrow?

Q. I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth out (two were impacted) and although I have had some swelling, used nearly all my pain pills, and a little bruising, I haven't had any other complications like dry sockets. Tomorrow will be the 7th day after I got them out, and I am going to San Francisco. Do you think I'll be ok on the plane, or should I take a few Ibuprofen before boarding?

A. its best to ask a dentist, a pharmosest ,doctor, or someone at an airport.

What does fluoride do and should you ingest it?
Q. Dentists use fluoride to coat your teeth during your visits, it's in mouthwash, it's in toothpaste.... and it's also in TAP WATER, such as in San Francisco. Why do they include fluoride in water if you're not suppose to swallow it?

A. This is a question of biology and chemistry. Fluoride is an active ion that replaces the Calcium ion in . Hydroxyappitite is the basic structure of enamel. It has been shown that this new crystalline structure is resistant to the ravages of the decay process. It has also been shown that the three pronged attack of fluoride in the water, tooth paste and the dental applications do the best. It is important to know that ,like most biochemistry, amount of application is very important. You will not harm your physiology by low doses of fluoride, however, high doses of fluoride are used as rat poison. That is why stores don't sell gallons of fluoride. Fluoride is measured in parts per million.
