What are alternatives to hydrocortisone cream for a mosquito bite? (photo)

In general, after an insect bite, it is important to minimize picking and scratching at the rash as this can aggravate the swelling and increase the risk of scarring. It is also important to prevent infection and keep the area clean. Topical antibiotics may be helpful especially of there is a wound and overlying redness. Some people may develop an exaggerated insect bite reaction and the area of the bite can become very inflamed. Topical steroids can help reduce the inflammation. For the current scar, this should usually get better with time. Silicone based scar gels may help in the healing.

If you want to leave the existing crown alone and fit the left molar crown to the open bite created by the right molar crown, then you will also have to make the other back teeth touch in order to create a comfortable bite. Having one or only 2 teeth touching when your back teeth bite together can be very uncomfortable. This increases the load on the affected teeth and may cause the crack in the left molar to get worse, and the tooth may even split into half which is extremely painful.
