what's this sore gum on wisdom tooth - pericoronitis

[starmovestv]

OMG, I just had this procedure a month ago and I swore it was so painful, at first the doctor mistook it as tonsilitis so I had antibacterial pills but sad to say the pain came back so I went to the dentist.Glad to say, no more pain and the procedure was successful.

I had this during december 2018. It was so painful and I think it caused an infection in my mouth. I had to get wisdom teeth removed. Now here I am almost 3 months later, pain free, and I am so glad I had my wisdom teeth removed.

I’ve had problems with this for a couple of months so I’ve come on here to tell you how I sorted it. I ordered myself a Waterpik flosser which shoots water out and I held the nozzle on the swollen gum/gum flap, shot the water out and so much crap flew out from under the gum and it was instantly cured, the swelling went IMMEDIATELY. I was getting myself mentally prepared to have the tooth out so I am over the moon now! Order one guys! I’m baffled as to why the dentist put me on antibiotics without even trying to clean it out first though because the problem could have been solved so much sooner!

Happened to me before when I was a teenager. Once I got my wisdom teeth pulled the pain of it all went away. I was so relieved to get them removed.

[noblemoneymusic]

is as much painful as coming back from school hungry, yet no food at home .

[jmlpmvy]

I keep biting my cheek while I'm eating and it hurts when I chew where my wisdom teeth are

It’s food stuck deep down under that flap. Something needle size you can gently lift up the flap and dig around usually the small needle widens the gap under the flap between the gum tissue and tooth. Which is where the food is you feel an INSTANT relief and the gum flap shrinks almost instantly and you follow up with warm to almost hot water and salt and swish and you’ll feel even more of an relief as you feel the food particles you didn’t know was there coming from under that flap repeat until you feel an “empty feeling” you’ll also feel your jaw swelling instantly go down and the pain will go away instantly and the flap will be no more. Just try to avoid eating on that side or repeat process it’s time consuming. But it works and kinda saves the tooth from rotting until you can get to a dentist. Also best way to keep it food particle free.

I did the procedure where they remove this part of the gum. Remember to stay It’s not as bad as you think it is, as long as your dentist numbs the area, you will be fine.

I have this exact thing but corona is making it hard to see a dentist my mouths hurting

[andrew]

I had the exact same problem, had the tooth removed under local anaesthetic. Felt great within hours.

[valnetintea]

im having this right now and it's on my bottom of my mouth growing on my wisdom tooth. It doesn't hurt but it feels so uncomfortable when i open and close my mouth everytime

[neighborskid]

I have this but thankfully it’s on the side, and it’s healing without any dental help or surgery and I didn’t even go see the doctor, but the tissue is rather like getting smaller, and moving back in place. My wisdom tooth was growing really far back.

[pilipinoako]

It's really painful. Especially at night. 😔

[cinnamonapples]

I can’t tell if I have this or if it’s just my 2 brain cells thinking I have this but there is some kind of gum overlapping my wisdom tooth that is about to break through

[ginadee]

I have this.. the pain is unbelievable.. I'd rather give birth again! I chew CLOVES when I get the pain.. Cloves are a MIRACLE WORKER!! in 2-5 min the pain is gone and stays gone for a while. I threw out my oragel..I highly recommend cloves

[ishmael]

That flap of gum is what I am experiencing today. I noticed it with my tounge today. I should get my wisdom tooth removed. For once a YouTube video that shed some insight

[sanesanity]

Thank you Doc for this video, it's really a pain in the mouth.

[phakamilemoyo]

I have this problem on my left side. I was scared to ask anyone about this because I thought it was a cancer symptom. Cancer is really scary

[aimeeziegler]

I have this on both my lower wisdom teeth once in while they get sore
