Hi i have just been diognosed by a maxifollist as muscle spasam in my gums where theres no teeth what can ease pain ps need apallet and gum sheild tha?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Muscles and gums: Not sure who or what the maxifollist is. In gums where there are no teeth pain due to muscle spasm is quite unlikely. What you may be experiencing is pain in the muscles that open and close your lower jaw, especially if you are missing teeth and your bite is not in harmony with the muscles. See your dentist or an oral surgeon for a complete exam and discussion of what might be causing pain.

Hi, for a while now I have felt a gap between the back of the bottom front teeth and the gum, and there's a little pocket between them. Is this a sign of gum recession, or is it normal?
