Hi, Ive got a molar bridge done over ten years and for the first time the gum in that area has swallowed., It is painfull and I took some Ibuprofen. Should I take antibiotics? It started 2 days ago with a very sudden and sharp pain. Ive put Anbesol on the gum and it helps only temporary...right now the pain is not that sharp, but it is swallowed with a mild pain. Thanks, Nick
Hello, dont take painkillers without doctors prescription, it may damage your kidney if taken for a long time. Visit a dentist. Sort out the problem in you bridge. If its due to caries in abutment teeth then can try for act and then can bridge again. Take care
