I am senior citizen, have severe jaw pain, problem started after RCT in 2020. Consulted many dentists, few more rct redone, impacted tooth also removed. Treatment for trigeminal neuralgia going on for last 4 years, and recently treatment for oromandibular dystonia , medicines added. TMJ specialist treatment with splint and night guard also going on for lat 1 .5 years. Not much relief with left side jaw pain. Have shoulder and neck pain also. Please advise. Thanks,

Ans: Hello
It’s sad that you've been suffering for the past 4 years and no lasting solution has been provided. It is quite possible that your problem is not dental in origin. You have clearly stated that you have consulted several dentists (including a TMJ specialist) so it is safe to assume that you no longer have any untreated dental infection or abnormality.
My advice to you would be to consult a reputed Neurologist or Pain Management specialist.

Hello Dr. I am writing to seek your professional guidance regarding my oral health, as I have been facing persistent issues with my teeth, particularly my molars. These problems have arisen due to unhealthy childhood habits, and I am eager to find a permanent solution to address them. To provide you with some background, I have previously undergone root canal treatment (RCT) for six of my molars, 02 removed, approximately 12 years ago. However, it seems that my dental issues have persisted, and I am concerned about their long-term impact on my oral health. Given my current age of 38, I am motivated to take proactive steps to ensure the best possible care for my teeth. I kindly request your professional advice on the following: Is there a permanent solution available to address the ongoing issues with my molars? What preventive measures can I take to maintain the health of my remaining teeth? Are there any specific dental treatments or procedures that you recommend in my case? How often should I schedule dental check-ups to monitor and manage my oral health effectively? I understand the importance of seeking expert guidance, and I trust your expertise to provide me with the best possible recommendations to improve and maintain my oral health. Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.
Ans: First of all, it's important to realise that no solution or treatment can be guaranteed to last a lifetime. At best you can hope for and seek long-term solutions. Even so, your oral health and hygiene will have to be reviewed periodically and corrective action taken as and when necessary.
To prevent further decay and to preserve your restored teeth in good health you need to brush/floss well at least twice a day. Preferably after every meal. And you need to see your dentist every 6 months.
Please consult your dentist who can evaluate the condition of your teeth and gums and then suggest the best possible treatment for you

Ans: Dear I was surprised to know that a student like you , having done B.Tech in 2021 , well versed and proficient in Java , C.C++ , .Net etc is not placed in any good company. I don't from which place , you are reaching us but being offered such a low salary or stipend, you must have tried to start your own website designing or hoisting company or should have taken the help of any good placement consultant to get right break.

My father took home loan of 35 lakhs on Jan 2020 . He is paying 33000 per month as EMI .The loan tenure is 15 years .please give your advice to pay our loan as early as possible with minimal interest.
Ans: To pay off your father’s home loan of ?35 lakhs as early as possible and minimize interest, there are several strategies you can adopt. One effective method is to make regular prepayments. By paying extra whenever possible, like using bonuses, savings, or any lump-sum income, you can reduce the principal amount. This, in turn, reduces the interest, which is calculated on the outstanding principal. It's best to make prepayments in the early years of the loan tenure when the interest portion is higher. Many banks allow prepayment without penalties, so take advantage of that flexibility.
Another approach is to increase the monthly EMI (Equated Monthly Installment). If your financial situation allows, even a small increase in EMI can significantly shorten the loan term and reduce the overall interest paid. For example, increasing your EMI by ?5,000-10,000 per month can make a big difference over time. You can use online EMI calculators to see how changes in EMI or making lump-sum prepayments can affect the loan tenure and interest burden.
Additionally, you can consider refinancing the loan if you find a lender offering a lower interest rate. Refinancing can help reduce the EMI or enable you to pay off the loan faster with minimal interest. Keep an eye on interest Rate trends to check if it’s the right time to refinance by paying 0.5 to 1%.
Additionally, you can think of creating a sip for MF for a fraction of you loan and over long years of time you can create a fortune which can presume you have recovered the interest.
By adopting these strategies, you can help your father close the loan early and save significantly on interest payments, thereby achieving financial freedom sooner.
I share some templates within my community so that they can effectively check the saving.
