Pain at the end gum on left side
I have a consistent irritating, altough not very painful, at the point right after where teeth end in the mouth. I can touch that area and pain arises when I touch. It's been so for about past 2-3 days. There is no other problem as in swallowing the food or something except when something hot touches it, I can feel it.
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.

Hello
Its mostly the gums covering your wisdom tooth which gets inflamed due to food lodgement beneath the flap and due to irritation caused by outwardly placed upper wisdom tooth cusps.Grinding of upper wisdom tooth and operculectomy of lower tooth are temporary solutions.so need to visit an oral and maxillofacial surgeon to get upper and lower wisdom teeth removed as a permanent solution.
