Answers:
You only have to brush twice a day and when you do, don't brush too hard as this abrades the enamel and makes your teeth very sensitive!. On the other hand, if your gums are bleeding and painful, you may have gingivitis or periodontal disease!. Speak to your dentist!. Taking extra strength Tylenol should help relieve your pain until you get to a Dentist!!! Www@Answer-Health@Com
I don't know why your dad is making you suffer when a dentist could take care of this quickly, and the longer you wait, the worse it could get!.
Rinse with warm salt water to reduce the inflammation!. Maybe you could use some orajel ointment too if it's really bad, but that stuff is kind of annoying!. It always numbs the areas you don't want to numb!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
