Avatar f tn I know some pills leave that taste in ur mouth haveu taken anything?
Avatar n tn I have recently noticed due to stress and anxiety of thinking I have contracted hsv(herpes) inside my mouth that my lower part of gums/jaw under my tongue is swollen. I believe that it looks similar to pictures I have seen of mandibular torus but not so rounded more longish following the bone structure but sticking out a few millimetres. There are two similar growths on either side, the one on the left is slightly larger then the right but almost the same.
Avatar n tn Teeth and gums tingle, roof of mouth swollen, kind of like dry mouth (not thirsty though), tongue will not leave the swollen area alone. My dentist suggested trying biotene toothpaste and mouthwash for about two months to see if there is any improvement which I did and no improvement. I am going to call my dentist and tell her it did not work, but I thought I would write to see if you have heard of this and have any suggestions. Could it be allergies? I have not changed my way of eating.
Avatar f tn Still have strange taste in my mouth. I now have swollen glands in my throat/neck on the same side as the extraction was done. Starting to get a little scared. Could I possibly have an infection starting? Or perhaps Dry Socket? I don't have pain opening my mouth, not yet anyhow. I assumed that since the temp bridge was put in place and that my gums had swollen so that the hole wasn't really exposed that the clot would stay in place. Was I wrong in my assumption?
Avatar f tn ve had swollen gums with all 3 of my pregnancies but unfortunately their isnt much u can do but mine would hut in the back of my mouth to where it was hard to even open it. Its painful i know.
Avatar f tn I am asking you this because i have been suffering from severe outbreaks of mouth ulcers (on my gums, back of throat, tongue) on and off for the past 5 months straight (only 5 days total in 5 months without any). Sometimes, i have 10-12 painful large sores at once. I also was tested for herpes but since i have always gotten mouth ulcers since i was little (only once or twice a year though), my doc wasn't too concerned but tested it anyways. the test was negative.
Avatar m tn Hey guys er first of all around 4 - 5 days ago my lower left gum (towards the back - where the 1st molar and the one before it is) my 2nd molar hasn't fully grown yet (and i'm 18... lol) Anyway, it first happened on the left side where it sort of swelled and was very tender so I couldn't chew on that side and it bled a little.
Avatar m tn From time to time I try stopping the Valtrex and the virus seems to come back in the form of swollen, painful gums. Each time I stop Valtrex, it seems to take longer for the virus to reappear but it always reappears in the form of swollen and painful gums. I had this same symptom (although much more severe) when I initially contracted the infection together with fever and lesions on the penis and testicles and one strange lesion on my lower stomach.
Avatar f tn Is anyone else having this issue? I brush my teeth every day twice a day and I use mouthwash but my top front gums are still swollen and bleed. I'm terrified that I might lose my teeth in the front and can't afford to go to a dentist. Is this just a symptom of pregnancy or should I scape up some money for a dentist?

Avatar n tn and now my head hurts and my ear that is on the same side of my swollen gum hurts as well. is this normal for wisdom teeth? if not what could it be?
Avatar f tn We all cut our gums at some point, and like any cut especially in the mouth it will swell. Keep rinsing it well and it should be just fine.
Avatar f tn what can I do for my swollen gums ? They are bleeding more than usual when I brush ..?
Avatar f tn Previous to the sore throat, I had been experiencing gums that were red and swollen, and the skin on my gums peels off. Also the area below my gums, the crevice between the gum and cheek, in the 4 areas below my molars the skin is very irritated with sores and the skin over top of the sores is white and peels away. I also have sores on the side of my tongue, where it attaches to the back of my throat is red, irritated and white skin forms over it, but it peels away easily (like the crevices).
Avatar n tn my gums are swollen, they don't bleed and the back of my throat hurts, my husband had this a couple years ago and they never figured out what it was and now it's happening the same to me they just start swollening up slowly till it's the whole mouth, i'm a regular brusher and use listurine, lately i've been brushing at least two times a day and us mouthwash all day to keep it clean but it just doesn't seem to be going down, my husband said that his lasted a month and it g

Avatar f tn I am 15 weeks tomorrow and I have been waking up with swollen gums. My sister had it too when she was pregnant but not until after 20 weeks. I rinse my mouth out with salt water and brush them softly every day but they are just always swollen every morning!
Avatar f tn Once again no pain and I found a little chip of what looked to be like tooth chip, but was in fact a small chip of the side of a crown in the last tooth in the back of my mouth. Most of the crown is in tact except side of the crown area that was chipped and a little on top. There still is an under layer of porcelain left and metal in that area. As I said no pain. Next day I called the dentist and he is out until April 1.
Avatar m tn After the check up the female dentist told me that there was nothing wrong with my teeth and the lump was just the bone that was left after the extraction and the gums were swollen because of food touching the empty space of gums where i had the extraction. But she told me to come back the next day to make a crown for another tooth which was damaged. I came in the next day, and this time i had a male doctor.
Avatar f tn This *****, I have a swollen, red spot on my gums that hurts pretty bad. Could be a case of pregnancy gingivitis since this has never happened before. After all, pregnant women are more susceptible to getting it. 10 weeks today.
Avatar n tn I have since been on nystain for a week and a half and changed my diet as well as taking supplements. I noticed my gums are white in many areas of my mouth, under my tongue, cheeks, top of tongue. my lingual tonsils and the large taste buds at the back of my mouth seem to be inflamed but the dr said they were normal. I think I see/feel tiny bumps on the roof of my mouth but the dr said he did not see them when he looked with his drs tool.
Avatar m tn The bump is before my tonsils in my mouth, If you follow my bottom gums back to the wisdom tooth area, their is a line that starts to run up your mouth. The bump is towards the top of that right around where the hard and soft palate are.
Avatar f tn My gums have been very sensitive and bleed alot and yesterday I ate tortilla chips and on Both sides of my mouth, my gums are swollen. I guess chips got stuck in my gums or something and I had a headache last night. Today I wake up and my whole jaw is sore, my gums are swollen, it hurts to eat, my nose is stopped up, and it started bleeding, and I have a horrible headache. Not sure if its sinuses from the weather changing or if its from my mouth.
Avatar n tn I have been having pain in two of the 'ridges' in the roof of my mouth for quite some time now. One of them is the one is in the center that runs between the front two teeth and the other is next to it. They are slightly swollen and sore (I tend to rub my tongue on them a lot lately). I have also noticted a small pump next to one of the ridges and a small bump in my gums between one of my front teeth and side tooth that is greyish/deep read.
Avatar f tn Red and swollen gums is just one of the symptoms of gingivitis. other indications of gingivitis are bleeding gums and bad breath.Proper oral health hygiene is the best way in preventing red and swollen gums. so,you have to consult with dentist as soon as possible.
