Hi, i have like a lump in my gum above my front tooth .. I ve been to doctors and she said its gum inflammation & I had antibiotics which cleared it & a mouthwash . I ve also been to the dentist which i was told my teeth are absolutely fine & I had xrays whicChatDoctore back fine as well. But its come back, Anyone know what it could be?
Hi.thanks for the query...taking antibiotics is not enough in your case...the cause behind it has to be removed otherwise it will recur again and again...it can be a hyper inflammatory reaction to any local irritant present... in that case, you should go for scaling and root planing and should do warm saline rinses... after gum inflammation reduces, it will either go completely or will reduce in size... you can go for gingivoplasy afterwards...it can be abscess... in that case you should get it Chat Doctor. .also get your sugar levels checked....
