Hi,I have a wisdom tooth emerging from my upper jaw. The Molar next to it feels sharper, and hurts the gums on my lower jaw. I had the molar chipped/filed once a few months ago in India when I encountered the same problem. Why might the problem be re-occurring and what might I do to remedy it.thanks for your time
Hello, thank you for consulting with Chat Doctor. Actually sometimes when there is less space for molar tooth in the mouth, it erupts in different directions in mouth because of which it hurts in lower gums or sometimes cheeks. In your case it can be possible that this, molar is only hurting on the gums. Or may be the filling which was done earlier has now chipped off. In both the cases you have to visit your dentist and get the filling restored or wisdom tooth removed. Hope it will help you.
