Gum Line Throbbing?!
Question: Gum Line Throbbing!?
I had a pulp cap 6 days ago!. Dentist accidently cut gum near tooth!. I also have TMJ and my mouth was stretched to the max!. This morning the gum line is throbbing and I don't know which of the above it could be!. The gum line looks puffy, but not flaming red as if there is infection!. It feels more like a really bad ulcer near a sensitive tooth!. Any ideas!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
no it is not infected, what he did i believe is when you put on a cap, you have to trim around the tooth, which gets into the gum line, do saltwater rinses several times a day, still brush and floss and take tylenol or whatever you would take for a headache, it will bet better, more detail, he take a bur, and goes around the tooth, kind of makes it smaller, not quite peg like, but the bur does go down into the gumlineWww@Answer-Health@Com
Probably an infection!. I've found that with gum probs, the best for pain is ibofrofen, then get to the docs for antibiotics!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
gums are really sensitive so it just sounds like its probably a bit bruised, if it gets any worse though I would go and see your doctor :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
