Should i meet a dentist for tooth pain and swollen gum?
Patient: I woke up this morning with pain behind my last tooth on the bottom right and it hurts to chew food but not to sallow. The gum behind my last tooth is cearly more swollen than the gum on the opposite side of my mouth. Should i go see a dentist, by the way im 35 weeks pregnant. Doctor: Hello,The type of pain in the tooth you are mentioning with swollen gums it means that there is an infection in the tooth you should visit your dentist for the treatment of infection because without that the pain will not be relieved.If you are 35 weeks pregnant then right now initial treatments can be done but with precautions.Hope it will help you.
