What medicine treats toothache and swollen gums?

Patient's Query

I have toothache due to cavity and I feel like that gum is also swelling so can you suggest medicine for this problem.

Dental Treatement

Answered by Dr. Parth Shah

The tooth starts to ache which suggests that you may have a cavity. If you do not take care of it properly, it may go on to the neighboring teeth, thus causing the recurrence of the problem. This happens because the bacteria are attacking the affected tooth and the gum. The main thing you need to do is to avoid sweets to cut off the bacteria that are contributing to the problem. In particular, ibuprofen, an over-the-counter medicine, and sometimes a prescription, are all good options.

See a dentist as soon as possible. Take pain relief medication as prescribed to manage the pain. Do not delay seeking dental care, as untreated dental issues can lead to more serious problems.

I've got rough patches on the inside of my mouth. They're white and the area around is red and purple. They've been there for a while(left side a lot longer than the right) and are often are painful when pressure is put on it like my tongue or when I brush my teeth. Its been ages and I don't know what's going on.

Female | 16

You could be facing candidiasis or oral thrush, which is an infection derived from a yeast overpopulation in your mouth. I will be recommending a dentist or an oral surgeon to have a proper diagnosis and treatment. Thus, they may ask you to see a dentist named an oral pathologist for a more detailed examination.

Iam having throat pain and earache and found some black patches in my gums

Female | 19

You might be dealing with a throat and gum infection, especially considering the symptoms. The black patches on your gums could indeed indicate gum disease, which often stems from bacterial or viral infections. To alleviate your discomfort, you can try gargling with warm saline water, staying hydrated, and consulting a dentist for their assessment of the black patches on your gums.

Two days ago, I underwent dental surgery and had sutures in my gums as a result. Normal food wasn't an option. Everything I eat makes me feel nauseous, and I'm becoming weaker all the time. Also, a loss of appetite. Is there anything I may take in the form of supplements? Is there a particular one, that you'd want to proscribe.

Last month january i got cavity infection with swollen face jaw and lymph node..... i got extracted my teeth but lymph node swollen is still there

Female | 28

In most cases, lymph nodes might swell after the tooth extraction, maybe if there is an infection present. But you will have to go to the doctor if the swelling lasts longer than a few days. I suggest you consult a maxillofacial surgeon for a detailed investigation and treatment of your swollen lymph node.

I am having wisdom teeth 25%out side and the rest 75% is jawline bone ..it gets swelling ...I consulted a doctor near my area he hold me like that it's necessary to remove that teeth becoz it's gets effected through throat

Female | 24

Your wisdom tooth is giving you some discomfort. Sideways growing wisdom teeth can cause problems like inflammation, pain, and chewing challenges. Sometimes it has progressed even infecting your tonsils. Opting for extraction is often the most effective way to solve the problem. Visit a dentist to get it extracted.

Me and my girlfriend both have little white bumps on ours tongues and we have no idea what they are they are on the tip of our tongues and sides

Male | 20

We get to notice white bumps on the tongue by the name of "lie bumps" or TLP (Transient Lingual Papillitis) very often. They are usually benign and caused by either skin irritation or minor injections it. The subject should always be examined and discussed by a dentist or an oral specialist before the actual treatment is applied

"Is it safe and appropriate for me to use Chlorhexidine mouthwash regularly, diluted with water, as part of my morning oral hygiene routine, and if so, what would be the recommended concentration and frequency of use for my specific oral health needs?"

Male | 15

Absolutely, the use of diluted Chlorhexidine mouthwash with water in the morning routine of oral care can be safe and helpful. The usual concentration is 0.12% and it can be used once or twice per day. This mouthwash is good for inflammation of gums, plaque as well as bacteria in the mouth. To get the best outcome, do not swallow and follow directions cautiously.

I am having a severe tooth ache. I had an accident October 2022 and I broke some of my teeth of which I did composite build up that time. since that time I have always been having pains per time which I will buy paracetamol and the pains will be relieved. but since on Saturday, I have been taking paracetamol with pain relief and the pain still persist

Male | 24

It sounds like you have been experiencing persistent tooth pain since the accident. The composite build-up may not be holding up well, leading to nerve irritation causing the pain. It is essential to visit a dentist to assess the condition of the teeth and the composite build-up. In the meantime, avoid chewing on that side and stick to soft foods. Apply a cold compress on the outside of the cheek to help relieve pain temporarily.

Can tooth decay be reversed?

Female | 39

The short answer is “no” but the long answer is “sort of.” Here’s why:

The earliest stage of tooth decay or a cavity is demineralized enamel. The outer layer of enamel becomes weak and soft, due to acids and plaque biofilm coming into contact with it on an extended basis.

Fortunately, demineralized enamel can — to an extent — be remineralized before a physical cavity (hole) ruptures through the surface.

What are some ways to help this happen?

Improved hygiene and plaque removal on an everyday basis
Protective dental sealants over deep grooves and fissures, which are someof the most cavity-prone surfaces
Drinking fluoridated tap water throughout the day
Supplementation with a prescription strength fluoride or mouthrinse, providedby your dentist
Use of everyday oral hygiene products that contain fluoride
Eating more fresh fruits and vegetables, sharp cheddar cheese, and fewerprocessed carbohydrates
Eliminating acidic beverages and those that contain natural or artificial-sweeteners

The types of cells that make up your teeth do not re-grow or repair themselves after the tooth is fully developed.

Once a tooth has a physical cavity (opening or hole) inside of it, there is no feasible way to help the enamel grow back on your own. Instead, the cavity will gradually worsen, due to the bacterial infection inside of the tooth structure.

Ideally, you would want to treat the cavity as soon as it’s diagnosed and while it’s as small as possible. When you do, your dentist can place a minimally invasive filling and preserve as much healthy tooth structure as possible.

But untreated cavities will expand to the point that they require larger fillings. Or worse, they will reach into the nerve chamber and create an abscess. What could have initially been treated with a modest restoration now becomes a situation requiring a root canal and a crown

Hi my father has a severe problem of aphthous ulcer. It first happened in 2016. The condition was so bad that we had to admit him to the hospital. After that he was fine. But in last 6 months it repeated two times. We were aware of the condition so he got the treatment early. But my question is why it is happening again and again? We visited a doctor at Bayrampasa but were not satisfied. Can you suggest a good doctor in Istanbul who handles this type of patient earlier?

Apthous ulcer is mainly due to stress ;constipation and vitamin b complex deficiency. The following problems should be addressed and by its treatment. Vitamin n b complex Syrup 15 ml minimum for a period of one month one time daily. Mucopain gel thrice daily before having on ulcer site or as prescribed by Dentist.
