HELP!!! I have a spacer stuck IN my gums!!!!! I won't come out?!


Question: HELP!!! I have a spacer stuck IN my gums!!!!! I won't come out?
I cannot get it out- it's on top so it's hard to see. We tried tweezers and flOSS and it looks to me like all my gums are super swollen. It hurts like crap! I already took Tylenol. I am really embarassed though and am freaking out!

Answers:

How did that happen? Anyway, try this...compress your gum with ice cube or something cold and see your orthodontist A.S.A.P



Are you talking about a separator placed by an orthodontist that was flossed in-between your back teeth? Either way, contact your doctor. It can cause a serious infection.
