Dental infections: Have you seen a dentist? If not, that would be the next step. Dentists are trained to diagnose and treat dental infections.

YES YOU DO: With three teeth infected to the roots, and gums infected, you need help, you need to see a dentist ASAP, root canal treatment to save those teeth may be needed along with treatment of the infections with meds.

See a dentist ASAP: This infection will not resolve on its own with home care. The most common type of dental abscess is a tooth, and the second most common is a gum or combination of both tooth-gum abscess. In order to get appropriate treatment it is important to know the underlying cause for this infection. Rec.: see your dentist for evaluation, x-rays and treatment.
