Question 1

why might my nerves come out through my gums?

Accepted Answer

No idea: hVe never seen nerves coming out of gums. Go and see periodontist to find exactly what is going on in your mouth. Good luck

Question 2

can bonjela help my sore gum or sore nerves?

Accepted Answer

Perhaps, but...: I would first consult a dentist who can actually examine you to determine the cause of the sore gums and nerves. If i had chest pain, i would consult a physician to see if there is something serious that requires treatment rather than just taking some pain medication.

Question 3

my daughter has recurring abcesses. some nerves have been taken out of her teeth, but the abscesses are still recurring. they appear all over gums, sometimes 2 at atime. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Mouth ulcers?: If the "abscesses are appearing all over the gums, my first thought is that you are not dealing with infected nerves, but most likely a virus-mediated ulceration or ulcers induced by some food(s). If your dentist has been treating this with root canal therapy, maybe you should get a second opinion from a gum specialist?

Question 4

i have red nerves inside the mouth near gums and uvula also has a red spot on it. also i found pink bumps on the back of my tongue .pls suggest ?

Accepted Answer

How do you feel?: If you feel fine and what you report are incidental findings, everything is probably normal or at least within normal boundaries. The pink bumps are papillae, most likely circumvallate papillae- Google it) and have slight redness on the back of your throat might indicate irritation, allergies, etc. and nothing to be overly concerned about. However, if you're not feeling well, see your physician.

Question 5

bad tooth left lj :beside that my gum is white + raised. i have a sore ear +nerves irritated. is this from - bad tooth or wisdom t tryin to come throu?

Accepted Answer

Wisdom tooth: Wisdom teeth, while erupting, may cause sore ear and nerves irritated.  Try to have your wisdom teeth removed and then follow up with the dentist.

Question 6

had a lower left impacted wisdom tooth removed approx 2 months ago. now left side of tongue and lower left gum line is tingly and a slight burning sensation. unable to go back to dentist. part of tooth remained behind. feels like nerves were damaged.

Accepted Answer

Specialist: You may have an infection, particularly if some of the root was left behind.  This can be quite dangerous and spread quickly.  Please see a specialist Oral Surgeon for appropriate treatment.

Question 7

the left side of my mouth hurts constantly. gums bleed when brush, teeth sensitive, i believe i feel the nerves in the pockets. pain relief? recommend

Accepted Answer

Pain Constantly: It sounds to me like you should see a dentist as soon as possible. Bleeding gums and constant pain are not a good sign. I would suggest some Ibuprofen or tylenol (acetaminophen) for temporary relief, however, the pain and bleeding gums could be something more serious. Imagine if your hands were bleeding when you washed them. You would see a doctor right away. It is the same thing when your gums bleed.

Question 8

ebv positive certain cells attacked by nerves 100 per cent not a doctor know my own body, loss of sensation gums face limbs scalp torso weakness help!

Accepted Answer

EBV: Sometimes viral infections can rarely cause a condition called  guillan barre syndrome. You should see a doc asap since you are having significant symptoms.

Question 9

how do i know gums/roots or nerve sethered from extraction #12 & #28?

Accepted Answer

Various ways: Gums if damaged can be seen in the mouth, but there is no way someone could remove a tooth without affecting the gums. Roots are removed with the tooth, in case a root is left behind it can be seen with a x-ray . A nerve damage is to be diagnosed clinically comparing the sensation with the opposite side. Some times it is a temporary loss or reduction of sensation. More information is need

Question 10

will bonjela help my sore gum or nerve?

Accepted Answer

Bonjela: Is a topical anesthetic for relief of pain from canker sores or denture sores. It is not a cure nor is it meant to help tooth nerves. Sore gum yes, sore tooth no. Please see your dentist as bonjela if the sore gum does not go away in 7 days.
