Swelled bump around molars
by manda323, Jun 27, 2009 10:33PM
I am a 17/f and i've experienced issues with my teeth for as long as i can remember. It's been about 3 or 4 months since i've had a bumb around one of my molars. I recently had an infection that i did take medication to get rid of the bump around my tooth, so that i could receive medical attention but the bump has returned. What i'm most afraid of, if not the idea of the actual visit, is the chance that i might lose my tooth. What should i do?
If you have had issues with your teeth for a long time, then it is best to have a full understanding of what is going on in your mouth, what is the cause of all these issues and then come up with a solution, short term and long term so you would be able to keep your teeth for as long as possible.
I would visit a great Family and General Dentist and an Endodontist
