What can I do to help the sore spot above my tooth?!
Question: What can I do to help the sore spot above my tooth!?
I have a small sore above one of my teeth!. It's near the back of my mouth!. It's reddish and looks like a little cut, even though I don't think it is!. It bleeds a bit when I brush my teeth (maybe I'm brushing too hard!.!.!.!?)!. What can I do to help it!? Lighter brushing!? A different toothpaste!? A different toothbrush!? Dental vitamins!? And please don't say "go to the dentist" because I have an appointment in 2 weeks but I'd like to know now, before I go to the dentist, if there's anything I can do to make it better!. Thanks a bunch =)Www@Answer-Health@Com

you gargle with warm salt water, 2-3 times a day!. Now there is this really strong mouthwash, but I can't remember the name of it!. but it burns so u probably wouldn't want to use it anyway!. i wish i can remember the name!. I haven't used it in so long, but it helps!. but the warm salt water should be fine, and when u use your mouthwash, mix a little peroxide in it!. it won't hurt u, i've been doing it for years and the dentist told me it is just fine to mix peroxide with mouthwash daily!. but try that, and u should be fine!. my mother would always burst hers though, because she got tired of the pain!. but my suggestion is just keep that up until u go to the dentistWww@Answer-Health@Com
Well, I think that you have a canker!. Not cancer but a canker!. They pop up once in a while in everyone's mouth!. I am sure that it is not to much to worry about!. They are irritating as hell but they will soon go away if you do not bother them to much!.
And you can be sure that your dentist will ask you about it!.
Dentists are great for seeing problems and suggesting other medical opinions!.

Try using Listerine to cleanse the area and then cover it with Oragel!. That will disinfect the sore and relieve any pain!. It should heal within a day or two!. Talk about it with your dentist during your appointment!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
don't worry it will heal on it's own!. just don't touch it!. i just had it this morning and it already gone today!. it's only a sore from brushing too hard!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Brush gently, use chloraceptic to numb it and make sure the dentist looks at it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
