About a week ago I developed a soreness in my gums in between 27 and 28. Vigorous brushing was/is painful but no bleeding. The soreness persisted and then this morning I woke up with the same soreness between 5 and 6! Also, that side of my cheek was also sore particularly around the mouth. But only on the right side as if it were gradually spreading. Also sore areas are beet red, especially the inner cheek. I tried baking soda but that was even more irratating, leading me to believe it is not acidic related. Any suggestions?
Hello:) Thank you for choosing Chat Doctor. You did not mention if you suffer an infection in your teeth. You can apply lidocaine based gel (qua Chat Doctor. I recommend you to immediately consult your dentist to prevent further spread of infection. Warm salt water rinsing will be helpful. Use a soft tooth brush. Regards.
