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?

I have an area of my gums, upper left side, right beside a crown, where it swelled up. It's been swelled up for about two weeks now. There's no pain in or around the crown or the swollen gums, little discomfort, just a little swollen area about the size of a small pea, that's covering about half of the tooth with the crown. As far as I know it wasn't brought on by eating hot food.

If one never had swollen gums after taking Diltiazem Hydrochloride Extended-release Capsules USP for years and then suddenly has swollen gums (no redness or infection) could the Diltiazem suddenly cause this after getting a "deep cleaning" of the teeth, or 'probing for pocket depths' at a dentist?

I have this black recurring staining on my teeth (photo attached). It only appears to happen on the teeth that are directly exposed when I smile or talk. It happens on both the outer and inner surface of the teeth. It comes off when I aggressively use baking soda and scrub it off but that causes my gums to bleed. I do not use any medications that would interfere with it nor do I take iron supplements or drink any coffee or tea. The dentist can't figure out what it could be.

I have a swollen lymph node on my groin.. eczema all over my body, and sore gums could this be sympthoms of HIV or Herpes?

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.

My plan is to see if I can get a culture of the swollen gums the next time it reoccurs to get confirmation. The first time I stopped Valtrex the swollen gums reoccured within three days. The second time I stopped it reoccurred after about a week. The third time it reoccurred after about eleven days. Fortunately, this is the only sympton and it's pretty minor. It just hurts when I brush and floss but not much more than that.

In gingivitis there are swollen gums, bad breath, easily bleeding of the gums during flossing or brushing and gums may appear red-colored. Scurvy can lead to swollen bleeding gums, weakness, joint pains and muscle pains. In periodontitis there is soft tissue and bone deterioration with tender swollen gums. These are only few possibilities. For exact diagnosis and treatment a dental examination is necessary. Do keep me posted. Best luck and take care!
