Gum problem

2025-07-12 05:35:00
I have small white spot in my gum behind my 2nd molar tooth where previously (4yrs ago) surgical extraction of wisdom tooth is done. I have taken many antibiotics (monocef,sporidex725,augmentin625)..but its not completely cured. Its painless but i have discomfort during chewing after eating the spot reduced then again build up. So 2 dentist suggest me to do upper 3rd molar extraction and i have also done it..but still the problem not going..im helpless now what the hell is happening with me?

Hi, as per your complaint , if the white spot is still persisting even after your wisdom tooth extraction behind your 2nd molar on the same site there is a possibility of infection that has travelled from that site to the tooth previous to it .i.e, your 2nd molar . There could be a probability of tracing the sinus if the infection indicated towards your 2nd molar you might require a root canal treatment with respect to your 2nd molar .
Next Steps
Share your xray or area of the site for more detail .
Health Tips
Do not have antibiotics un necessarily an anti inflammatory is okay for a course of 3 days but nothing beyond it . Get yourself checked or share the xray here

1) After tooth extraction, sometimes a small sharp piece of bone slowly pushes through the gum as the body remodels the area. This can feel like a white bump, hard to touch, and may irritate your tongue or cheek during chewing. 2) Scar Tissue Lump Sometimes a firm white scar nodule forms where the gum healed. Not painful but can be irritating when chewed on.
Next Steps
To give you an accurate opinion, I would need to see the affected area. Since this is a public forum, I recommend starting a private consultation where you can securely share a photo. That will help me guide you better.
Health Tips
Run your tongue or clean finger over it: is it sharp, smooth, or soft?

Hello Usually when third molar cases are there it happens that the mucosa(gum tissue) in that area traps between the two molars so with constant chewing the mucosa takes a shape that way. It is painless but due to the constant trapping it keeps irritating. Need to see a picture too so can get a better idea
