Damaged gum when having wisdom tooth removed?!
Question:
Damaged gum when having wisdom tooth removed?
when i had my wisdom tooth removed under GA on the weekend, i noticed afterwards that my gum (upper lip) is damaged, which is hard to explain. It stings when i talk, eat, drink etc and i have been rinsing my mouth out with warm salty water, which settles the pain for a while, but then hurts again. the gum is rubbing against my top teeth and i don't know if to go to the dentist or there's something i can do to make it heal more quickly. I hope this makes sense!
