      Apples and fruits are definitely good for dental heakth as well as overall health.

      Any tooth paste is good. It is the method of brushing that is important.

            Brcaes treatment does not depend on the age but rather on the gum condition. If the gum condition is good braces can be doen at any age.

                Yes . Every tooth at any age is important. If the tooth can be saved it should definiytely be saved even for a kid of 5 years of age, If the tooth is extracted than it may create problems in the eruption of the permanent tooth.

                  We can make Ceramic veneers. I will have to study the case and then we will decide how to go about making ceramic veneers.

                    We will have to do a clinical examination to find out what can be done.

                      It will depend on the size of the cavity. Small cavities can be filled. Larger ones require root canal treatment. If the tooth is compeletly destroyed by a cavity than it needs to be extracted.

                      It is best to get the treatment done before the tooth hurts.

                        We will have to take an X -ray to fin dout what can be done.

                          Unless we take an x -ray it will not be possible to determine the cost of root canal treatment.

                          Broadly speaking the cost increases as the tooth becomes more decayed and destroyed.

                          I have tried to depict this in the below image.

                            From the way you describe it seems that there is some tartar accumulation on the teeth. So you need to do cleaning of your teeth ( scaling ).

                            Whitening of teeth can be done by various methods and which method will best for you can be determined only by a clinical examination.

                              Dental implant should not take too many sessions. However prior to we starting the implantology procedure we need to check the diabetes level. If it is high it is better to wait for it to stabilize before we initiate implantology treatment.

                                Thank you for your question.
                                Once the whitening is done its effect stays for a very long time 6 to 8 years or more. Frequent whitening is required only for smokers and tobbacco chewers. But most have my patients have quit tobbacco and smoking after whitening. In fact, dental whitening motivated them to quit tobbacco habits.
