There is a fleshy lump next to the decayed tooth

Tooth decay is the part that is most likely to cause toothache, because many people suffer from toothache because they do not pay attention to protecting their teeth in daily life, which leads to tooth decay. In order to avoid toothache, when a lump of flesh is found next to the tooth decay, it should be considered that the gums are swollen and painful. The cause of the swollen and painful gums needs to be found first, and then the symptomatic anti-inflammatory measures should be taken to eliminate the affected area as soon as possible.

What should I do if my gums are swollen and painful?

Let me first tell you the reasons why your gums are swollen and painful. The so-called swollen and painful gums actually refers to pain at the root of the teeth, and the surrounding gums are swollen, so it is called swollen and painful gums, also called swollen and painful gums. The main reason for swollen and painful gums is inflammation of the gums. The inflammation under the gums spreads in multiple directions through the gaps between teeth, dental tartar, and dead corners of the mouth, causing dental plaque to attach to the gums and resulting in swollen and painful gums. So, what should we do when our gums are swollen and painful?

What should I do if my gums are swollen and painful? A dentist at Xinqiao Dentist once told me that there are many types of swollen and painful gums. It is necessary to fully understand the factors that cause swollen and painful gums and then prescribe the right medicine to achieve better treatment results.

1. For gum pain caused by mild gingivitis, you can take some common anti-inflammatory drugs, such as metronidazole tablets and tinidazole tablets. Go to the hospital for teeth cleaning to remove tartar, plaque and other harmful substances. Keep your mouth clean and the gum pain will go away.

2. Gum pain caused by tooth decay should be treated in the hospital in time. Gum pain caused by tooth decay means that the tooth decay is already very serious and the tooth should be filled in time to restore the tooth shape. After the tooth decay is treated, follow the treatment method for inflammation.

3. If wisdom tooth inflammation causes pain and swollen and painful gums, you may consider removing the wisdom tooth. The gums swell due to physical stimulation. The swelling is localized, often limited to the area where the irritant is present. The pain is sharp and severe, accompanied by local bleeding of the gums.

4. There are many reasons for food impaction. If it is caused by dentures, you can consider making new dentures. If it is caused by uneven teeth, you should undergo orthodontic treatment.

No matter what disease it is, prevention is the most important thing. Here are two ways to effectively prevent gingival swelling and pain:

1. Brush your teeth with warm water and rinse your mouth with warm tea: because the dental pulp nerves are sensitive to temperature, especially for teeth with worn teeth and exposed dentin, cold stimulation can cause toothache, and warm water is a natural protective agent for teeth, which can prevent and treat allergic toothache; tea contains fluoride, and rinsing your mouth with warm tea regularly can protect teeth, prevent caries and treat toothache.

2. It is better to eat warm food and avoid eating too sour or sweet food, because teeth are most suitable for metabolism in an oral temperature of 35℃-36℃ and a weakly acidic environment with a pH value of about 6.8. Eating too cold or too hot food with a large temperature difference, or too sour or sweet stimulating food will cause toothache.
