Brushed too hard, ripped my gum?!


Question: Brushed too hard, ripped my gum!?
I was brushing my teeth quite hard and my gums on the bottom part of my teeth ripped and now its really painful!.
Everytime I eat something it stings, and its difficult to move my bottom lip too much!.
Does anyone know if there is something I can do make it heal faster or make the pain go away!.

It ripped 5 days ago and the pain is getting worse!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Buy a soft bristled tooth brush for one thing so you don't irritate it further!.

Bonjela is a treatment for oral ulcers and teething - it's an oral anesthetic which will make it feel a lot better while it heels!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

To make the pain go away then use something to numb it
they sell numbing liquids or creams in stores for your mouth,
