Tooth and Mouth Problems
Gums looks bigger after flossing
Hi,
I have seen my gums bleed while flossing. I am not flossing regularly. I observed that gums looks bigger and kind of sore after the flossing. I am not doing it regularly since I have jaw and neck pain going on for more than 10 months and no relief yet. So not flossing regularly due to that pain.
I also see some white deposit or patches at the base of few teeth. I tried to remove it and I couldn't during brushing. What does it indicate?
And, what is the gum swollen or bigger thing? Is it normal? I feel my gums bigger at back of teeth too.
And my dentist said I have periodontal ligament widening on my tooth. What to do for that?
Is this gum issue goes away on its own? I did my dental cleaning in August 2019.
I have jaw, neck pain and sore pain on 46. That tooth hurts for tapping and biting pressure on it. Had root canal and crown for the same reason. No changes yet. Still the same symptoms.Does it indicate any issue on that tooth?
Is this could be the reason for jaw,neck pain?

Pain near tooth
I've been experiencing mild pain beside my ear nearby cheeks for a few days especially during night time, however i couldn't pinpoint the exact location of pain. It took me a few weeks to pinpoint the location of pain. It was due to tooth pain and i got my dental scaling done. It has been 3 days and the pain has increased a bit and started in day time also. My dentist adviced that the pain is normal after few days of scaling. Kindly advice me some remedy for the pain.

Post COVID dental extraction
So a month ago I was tested positive for COVID. It was asymptomatic and this week I got retested, the result was negative.
I have a bad cavity which is troubling me every night from last two weeks, usually subsides to headache. Visited a dentist who told me the tooth has to be extracted but they can't perform any tooth extraction for 3 months post COVID negative and Dolo is the only option along with tooth care. Any solution ? Does it have to be 3 months from the date of being tested negative after COVID?
It's quite painful and effecting my sleep cycle.
