Wisdom tooth pain and infection
It has been 15 days since my wisdom tooth started erupting again and has caused pain. Since the pain did not subside i closely inspected it and found that there was a white area under the gum flap as the only thing handy was an ulcer gel i applied it as a result the pain and white area has reduced. Should i be worried about it?infection spreading?
Hello
You need to visit an oral and Maxillofacial surgeon for a check up and usually it needs removal as this pain can recur.you need not worry but it's better to get a check up done.You can contact for further queries.
