i have swollen gums behind my two bottom teeth ..what is the cause? It hurts, and when i push on it white stuff comes out. I brush, floss, and us mouthwash daily. I had a tongue ring before, but took it out like 6 months ago because it hurt my bottom teeth. Now, like two days ago my bottom teeth hurt and behind two it is swollen.
Hello, Thanks for posting your query. The swollen gums and white stuff coming out may be due to- abscess developed from dental caries/periodontal infection/impacted wisdom teeth/traumatic injury.a thorough clinical and x-ray examination will help to rule out the cause. Meanwhile, maintain good oral hygiene. Get your teeth cleaned by a dentist. The decayed teeth have to be restored/root canal treated.the impacted/fractured teeth if present, has to be treated. The pus has to be Chat Doctor. Hope this helps
