Hello, I have a hole in one of my tooth and there has been grown something like gum full of blood and a little white thing. The size is a bit bigger than tootChatDoctoring from inside of the hole. Sometimes when Im touching it with my tongue is bleeding. Ive read that can be a gum polyp, I have taken ibuprofen for it but seems not helpful. Is there a treatment for it or the tooth should be taken out? Can be only the polyp taken out or cut, and keeping the tooth?
Hi, Thanks for asking the query, According to your clinical history I suspect that you have developed a gingival polyp, I would suggest you to visit the Dentist and get the checkup done, take an x-ray of the tooth. The tooth can be treated with root canal treatment and the polyp can be removed either surgically or with the use of certain chemicals. Take complete course of antibiotics and analgesics. Take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash rinses. Maintain a good oral hygiene. Hope this helps out. Regards.
