I have toothache in a crowned tooth ie sore gum around the tooth, I floss every night and have excellent tooth hygiene and I am very worried that this could be an abcess, this evening  I flossed and was in pain for an hour afterwards,  what should I do now?
Hello, If you are having pain in the particular tooth which is crowned, it means there can be an abscess below the tooth because of infection, it can also be possible that the crown is impinging on the gums, but it can only be confirmed in an x-ray. I think you should visit your dentist and get the x-ray done for the problem. Hope it will help you.
