Hello Doctor, I am a 17-year-old male. I kindly request your professional guidance regarding my teeth. I have noticed a very small, minor dot-like hole on one of my molar teeth, which is not deep and does not hurt. There are also some yellowish stains and chalky milk-white and watery-white spots in a few areas. Someone suggested that dental scaling might fix this. Could you please kindly guide me if scaling would be sufficient, or if I will need another treatment like a filling? I would also highly appreciate it if you could give me a rough estimate of the cost for the required treatment.
Thank you so much for your time and help🙂.

I have severely yellow teeth and I want to clean them up naturally and over time. No procedure or chemical pastes. What should I do on a daily basis to whiten my teeth?
Another question I have is which toothpaste should I use on a daily basis. Please suggest something that is good for health and teeth and doesn't contain harmful substances.
Also should I switch to an electric toothbrush? If so any recommendations?
My dental bridge was recently replaced after 15 years due to sensitivity in the last abutment tooth. It was root-canal treated and a new bridge was placed. It has been 9 days since the new bridge was placed. I experience pain and occasional sensitivity in the last tooth. I had an OPG taken and the dentist says everything looks normal. He even reduced my high points twice. I even got a second opinion, for which the dentist said the RCT looks good, but if the problem persists then there's no option other than extracting the tooth. I only had a molar extracted on my other side and the other molar is waiting to be crowned. Now with this opinion, I am even more anxious and devastated as I could permanently lose all my molars on the lower jaw. The pain is still there and it gets worse in the morning after I wake up. But I can manage it for some time but it won't go away. I am seriously scared there might be a hidden tooth fracture that's not showing on the X-ray. Any advice is appreciated.
