What started out as gum pain a week ago is now turned into little sore patches around one tooth in particular. The tooth itself doesnt hurt, just the gums. No food is stuck. Ive done an antiseptic rinse on some tiny open spots and now theres white jelly-like skin that grew over some spots. Is this normal?
Hello, Thanks for consulting ChatDoctorRead your query as you feel sore gum around one tooth this can be due to some reason like inflammation of gingival due to gingivitis, periodontal problem causing pocket formation causing localized periodontitis or due to formation of gingival or periodontal abscess. For this I will advise you to consult oral surgeon for examination of gum and investigations Iowa X-ray to rule out the cause. In meantime I will suggest doing these remedies like to do warm saline rinses 2 -3 times a day, you can apply gum paint like stolen on inflamed gum, maintain proper oral hygiene, use mouthwash chlorhexidine regularly. Hope this will help you.
