Dentist Or Doctor
15 Answers
Since Christmas Day the gum around my right front tooth has been red/purple. There has been a yellow tinge when I’ve ran a cotton bud over it.
I’ve been on antibiotics since Christmas Eve - it’s not because of those but I thought it may have helped heal what ever it is but alas no.
I’ve been using Mouthwash 4 times a day, it’s sore to clean my teeth but I manage well eating is fine.
The area behind my tooth (rear part of gum) is a tiny bit sore.
Do I see my dentist or my doctor as the tooth it’s self is fine. No bleeding or anything...sugars erratic (11-16) but I’m on antibiotics and my routine is upset but I’m dealing with that as best I can.
It’s not an ulcer and I’m not sure it’s an abscess- any ideas?
