If the pimple is abscess, identification of the infection source is required.

I was born without my lateral teeth. So when I was 16 I got 2 implants done. For the last couple years, they have been great.. I take care of them and get regular dental check ups. I am a dental assistant, and the orthodontist I work for looked at my implant and noticed a "pimple" looking thing in my gums above one of my implants. He suggested I go into my periodontist. I did and ended up having to pay $2,000 this past January to clean the infection.

I have a couple questions about how I have been taking care of the abscess' though. The first 2 were not that bad. They were almost like a pimple I popped them and cleaned them out and all the swelling went down and pain went away. I took antibiotics to keep the infection from getting worse...I just got my 3rd one while waiting to go to the dentist. have my methods of cleaning the abscess' out after popping them the best approach.

my densist did say i may need a root canal.

I have had a smallish (maybe 2 cm in diameter) skin abscess or infected cyst on my back next to my cervical spine for the last 2 weeks which doesn't seem to be getting bigger or coming to a head (I tried squeezing it thinking it was a pimple at first.) When I touch it, it feels soft/puffy as though there's some fluid under it (same as a gum boil) and it's no longer hot/painful, just itchy sometimes.

By my description she mentioned something about fissure and the implant could cause some small infection that come to the top in the form of a pimple on my gums but could also be an abscess from a near by tooth. She said that it will continue to drain because of the type of infection and the fact that it needs to "get out" someway. As depressing as it seems she did say that the implant may need to come out and we may have to start over.

i have what looks like a white head or pimple on my gums above my front left tooth. i pushed my nail against it and the top of it cam off leaving a little red blood spot. does anyone know what this is and what causes it.

The abscess had been there for YEARS, as it would get a little pimple on the gum and would go away... I didn't realize the danger in that. Anyway, the abscess used to grow "out" onto the gum, but apparantly this time was growing "up", as it was "very close to my sinuses" as told by the Oral Surgeon. So, the tooth was pulled and the infection was "cleaned out" and stitched. however, I am still in pain.

The only thing that I can feel every once in a while is a little pressure around a tooth and the gum looks a little swollen. I think it started after I was eating cornnuts. I bite down and felt a sharp pain like I might have poked the gum with a piace of the cornnut.. Will I make things worse if I wait to go back to him in May for my 6-months check up.

Hello, 3 weeks back, I noticed a small pimple like inflammation on the inside gum of a front incisor that had been treated for root canal around 15 years back. I must have applied some pressure on the inflammation. Pain was present for a few days - I took ciproflaxin for 10 days. The inflammation went away from the inside gum and came back on the outside gum. I made it to a dentist on friday who said that it was an abscess and that she might need to do a root canal on it again.

I keep getting this white bump on my upper gums in the same spot every time, just above my left front tooth. Sometimes it hurts and is uncomfortable so I will pop it like a pimple and a white fluid comes out but it relieves the pressure and pain, then i rinse with listerine. I think it may have something to do with a past injury to my teeth. When i was 15 I was hit by a car (I'm now 25) and my 2 front teeth got knocked back and the doctor at the hospital pulled them back forward with her finger.

What does it entail to drain abscess intraoral #8? How long does it take? Do I need a second appointment? Tooth had a fistula and still looks like it has a real small little pimple like thing. Is that still a fistula? How do I know if it's still infected? Had root canal 5 weeks ago. The gum above the tooth hurts when I brush it or touch it, like when I scratch my nose. The doctor says it's normal to have pain a month or so later but if i REALLY want to come in, I can.

I've had dental abscesses before - one required tooth extraction, the other, root canal. I have now noticed a white "pimple" on my gum next to a virgin tooth, i.e., a tooth that has never had a cavity or filling. Something similar occurred several years ago and was found by my dentist's assistant. When the dentist examined it, he told her that it couldn't be an abscess because it was a virgin tooth. My question is, can an abscess develop at a virgin tooth?

A few weeks ago, I noticed a sore bump on the upper gum. It causes no pain unless I press on it, then it is painful. It is all the way up on the highest part of the gum and it is above a tooth that has a cavity. This tooth is sore once in awhile. Are the two related? Is it some kind of infection? Thanks.

I noticed a small pimple like thing on my upper gums last week, it has poped twice but filled back up again like a pimple you would get on your face, it was painfull the first couple of days but is no longer painful.

Plaque mixed with anemia and HIV dead cells that accumulates and blocks certain affected blood of gums. Grow a healthy gum system and use water-piq or air pressure to remove it.

Drained as in with an incision and drainage placed? If its a small "pimple" in the gum area, it'll resolve itself after the antibiotics work but you need to address the cause of the abscess which I'm guessing is a bad tooth somewhere nearby.

After a short time it failed and i developed pimple on gum which would burst every so often and release pus and blood. I had the filling replaced and my gum was cut open and the infection scraped out.

Now about 8 months ago I developed an abscess on my gum over the bad tooth that needed a rootcanal. Its not painful, but I do have to pop it like a pimple about 2 or more times a day. I try to put lots of mouthwash on it and not swallow right after. About 2 months ago a part of that tooth just fell out, but only the inside quarter of it. Its still not painful, but I feel sooo fatigue all the time. I am 36 and have always been very active and healthy. I never felt so run down before.

Before I went back to the dentist for the crown - I discovered one of sores (pimples) had come back. Then it went away. Now it's back. The gums themselves are not red and inflammed but the pimple comes and goes within a couple of days. Is this normal???????

I saw my dentist again on Monday, where we again discussed the 'pimple thingy' on my gum. He said he would do a root canal to see if this tooth was actually infected. He had done a CO2 test on it the week before and it had been dead. He started the root canal and MAN! (now I hope you aren't eating your dinner) the amount of pus that came out of my head was incredible...try 10 minutes of it! In the end he kept shaking his head, put a plug in it and took an xray.

When my dentist looked at the area weeks later, he still saw a pimple like swelling on the gums and ordered the intern to remove the tooth. I still have a small bump on my cheek and if pressed, pain from the tooth area all the way up to my eye. Will this ever go away? Is this a nerve, or should I have someone other than a dentist examine the area. I swear the first intern (VA) damaged the nerve or something.

Well, this is me having a whinge or a 'I feel sad for myself' time. For the past year or so I have started to get blood noses. Nothing spectacular just a slight drip or two. Then Saturday I woke from a deep sleep to blood streaming down my face. I sat up and gushes of blood poured out of my right nostril. This, was to say the least, most distressing. Took over 15 minutes to stop and a box of tissues later!

Hi adrian, you might want to have a dentist look at your mouth. It may not be from herpes, it could be a dental issue, a gum infection, abscess, anything. Try to go tomorrow and ease your mind. I do get herpes on my gums and palate. I also have had genital herpes for years. I don't even think about it anymore. Gone are the days where people say "I have herpes". You get herpes now and then, just like people get a cold sore on their lip.

Now I have what looks like cancer sores ALL over the inside part of my lip, top and bottom....my gums are really white and irritated and I also have a sore throat. They seem to be healing but I want to know what the hell this is....
