accidental hit in chin caused hole between chin and gums does it need to be sutured
hi I have read through your complaint and the relevant details but I am not able to see the pictures you have attached the format does not support the files to open only I request you to once again send me the pictures for an accurate answer with the complaint you have given I wonder how there is no pain in spite of you being hurt and there is a tear in the gum you have to visit your nearby dentist if there is bleeding in the hurt area or there are any teeth broken down or if any tooth is loosened and wobbles or if there is a gum tear also you have mentioned that you hit your chin region this part of the jaw is sensitive to fracture in of the cases hence I advise consulting a nearby dentist to eliminate fractures of the jaw firstly meanwhile apply ice packs on the injured region and wash your mouth with lukewarm saltwater which promotes gum healing also avoid hot and spicy or citrus food massage the gums with clean fingers in a circular motion and in case of pain apply ointment orabase benzocaine along with massaging
hello doctor I fell and hit my chin and my teeth tore a hole inside my lower mouth area between chin and gums it does not hurt but was not sure if I needed to have it stitched
