because it kept breaking off. I had major pain, his office just brushed it off as normal. I few months later I was still having issues and pain. I noticed some greyish-whitish spots
on my gum which disappeared as fast as they appeared. I can't remember the date, but I was diagnosed with thrush. In May 07 I had a large abcess (abscess) with more of the greyish-white spots
on the lower gum/jaw area near the extraction. I punctured the abcess (abscess) which was full of greenish puss & blood, used water/peroxide combo to rinse and it cleared up. This May there was a blueish spot
but more toward the back & on top of the gum line - again disappeared as soon as it came. By the way, the dentists I had been going to have no answer for what this is or what to do about it. I just went to the doctor on Thur and she said I have "a" white spot on my throat -- since only one she thinks it is a virus because if there were more than one & my throat was sore she would suspect bacterial infection. I continue to have pain in the lower area of my jaw even after a root canal. ????? What is going on and what the heck do I do about it????
