Question: Gums swollen next to bottom right teeth please tell me how to treat asap.?
Well I do not know why but the bottom right gum next to my back teeth (tooth) is swollen. It is very annoying since i brush me teeth normally. I have been slacking lately due to lack of time and stupid reasons like not wanting to go downstairs (not out of laziness) but it has not been that much and now when i bite down my tooth seems to rub against my right gum and it is very very uncomfortable. O and by the way it must of happen in the night very recently cause its 4:05 am and it felt fine 7 hours ago. This may be what woke me up but please HELP me or TELL me what to do. It would be very appreciated.
Answers:
Try some orajel until you can see a dentist. You can get it from Wal-Mart or Target. Until then, also try rinsing with warm salt water and some mouthwash like listerine. Of course, FLOSS as well. Continue brushing your teeth too.
See a dentist
gargal Vodka or a wet teabag against it should help
