What to do if a tooth grows in your mouth

People say toothache is not a disease, but it is really painful when it happens. Indeed, oral problems cannot be ignored. If there is a problem with the oral cavity, a person’s daily diet and communication will be affected. Oral gums are the most common oral disease, which is usually related to excessive internal heat in the body. So what should you do if you have a toothache in your mouth? In addition to oral cleaning, what other methods can be used to relieve the pain caused by oral gums?

I have had the lump on my gums for quite a long time, but I never took it seriously. It just that the lump would appear particularly large when I got angry. Later, a friend told me that it was a problem with my teeth. And it was true. The tooth under the blood lump was obviously very loose. Following my friend's suggestion, I went to the hospital to make an appointment to check it out.

The dental department always takes a long time to see one patient, and not many people can be seen in the whole morning. I waited for a long time before I got a seat. The doctor understood my situation after just one look. We used a digital tomographic X-ray machine to take pictures of the inside of the tooth, and the doctor said it was a periapical abscess with a fistula.

The next step was oral cleaning, direct pulp extraction, root canal enlargement, pulp cavity sealing, etc. It sounds simple now, but it was actually quite uncomfortable at the time. I rinsed my mouth repeatedly, and it was all blood. Then he prescribed me some anti-inflammatory medicine and asked me to change the medicine next week.

I saw the doctor again a week later. This time things were much easier. It was just a simple change of the medicine. I forgot to mention that the last time the doctor drilled a hole on the inside of the problematic tooth to facilitate medication. This time I just took out the previous medicine and replaced it with new one. During that time, there was always a taste of medicine in my mouth, and I had no choice but to endure it. But at this time, it was obvious that the blood bag was gone. I asked the doctor how many more times I would need to come, and the doctor said it depends on the situation.

I had a follow-up check-up a week later. The doctor took a look and started various treatments. In the middle, the doctor said that he would directly seal the tooth hole and I would not need to come again in the future. I was secretly happy. After the operation was completed, there was no problem with the tooth and the previous blood clot was gone.

In fact, there was always a smell of medicine in my mouth for a long time after the operation. I consulted a doctor and he said it was normal, but it lasted longer for some people and shorter for others. Later, it disappeared. The treatment lasted three weeks in total and the total cost was over 700 yuan at a town hospital in Beijing.

Precautions

(1) Do not drink alcohol during treatment. No other requirements!

(2) It is recommended that people with oral problems seek medical attention as soon as possible, as the teeth may not be saved if left untreated for too long.
