Wisdom Tooth Surgical Removal

Hello Doctor, I have an impacted wisdom tooth that has been advised for surgical removal. I also think I may have cavities in some of my other teeth. I would like to get a complete dental check-up. Can you please: - Examine all of my teeth for cavities and gum problems? - Advise if I need a full mouth examination and an OPG (full mouth X-ray)? - Let me know which teeth need fillings, root canal treatment, or any other treatment? - Can the wisdom tooth surgery and complete dental evaluation be planned together? Thank you.

Redness on  the tip of the tongue

Hello Doctor, I have had redness only at the tip of my tongue for the past 5 months. A dentist examined my entire mouth thoroughly, including the red area, and said everything looked normal. He prescribed Candid Mouth Paint, Vizylac tablets, and an anti-inflammatory medicine. The redness improved by about 80%, but it returned after stopping the treatment. The redness is mild at rest but becomes dark red while eating. I have mild occasional numbness not always  while trying to touch the redness by tongue. but no pain, burning while eating, ulcer, bleeding, or discomfort. The red area has not increased in size over the last 5 months. I also have GERD (Grade A), gastritis, a previous H. pylori infection (treated and later tested negative), and eczema on my right-hand fingers. Why does the redness keep recurring instead of disappearing completely? What could be the most likely diagnosis, and what tests or treatment would you recommend? I ve attached the photo kindly reply me
