See A Dentist: Without more information as well as a clinical exam, it would be difficult to determine what is going on.  Dark red swelling would suggest a collection of blood, i.e., possible hematoma or bruise, and sensation of a sharp cut suggests a history of trauma.  You need to be seen by a dental professional for further evaluation and treatment as indicated.

Clove oil: Clove oil can be an effective oral anesthetic.  In studies, it has performed just as well as topical Benzocaine (anbesol and oragel).  It's safe when used correctly in small amounts, but can cause liver and respiratory problems when ingested in large quantities.  It's found in health food stores. To use it, apply a very small amount to a cotton swab and apply gently to the affected area.

Question 9

please help! i'm having tooth/gum pain from not flossing?

Accepted Answer

Open contact: An open interproximal contact will cause an acute stage of gingivitis that will cause pain and localized bleeding in the area due to food impaction.  Good contact between teeth will prevent or alleviate food impaction and ultimately gum pain.  If you have to floss due to food stuck after every time you eat, you definitely have open interproximal contact that needed to be close.  Call your dentist.
