Abscess inside my gum burst, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a dentist: You need to see a dentist to determine the cause of the abscess and have the appropriate treatment provided. Without identifying the cause and having the correct treatment, the abscess will likely recur and could result in a more serious problem.
