purple gums after fall - my daughter fell and hit her mouth. Her gums were bleeding around one tooth. There is no bleeding anymore but her gums are purple and the tooth is sensitive to cold things. Is this something serious? Do I need to take her to a doctor?
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The purple color over the gum could be secondary to hematoma or bleeding following trauma. The sensitivity in the teeth could be because of the fractured teeth. Consult an oral physician and get the radiograph done to rule out any fracture in the teeth. If it is fractured in the root then It's difficult to save the teeth. Consult an oral physician and get it ruled out. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
