Title: Gum Abscess
Post by: EagleKeeper on April 17, 2012, 06:46:32 PM

So I got a gum abscess, I go to the dentist tomarrow to have it checked out.

I just had my teeth cleaned two weeks ago but what ever.

The dentist that I go to and his crew are good so I'm not too woried about it aside from the cost of the visit.

I brush and floss twice a day but I guess chit happens.

Folkes, go out of your way to take care of your teeth cause this chit hurts and it won't just go away.

Go grab a dry tea bag and place it  in your mouth on your gums at the site of the abscess.   The swelling and pain will go away.   It actually works.

I really appreciate the advice and it might help someone. But my choice is just to deal with it until my appointment tomarrow.

Pain...It teaches me things I didn't know.
