Doctor im 18 years old ...i am experiencing pain in my gums..what is the cause for it?...

Gum pain: Gum pain not normal. See dentist for exam and treatment. At your age, if the pain is in the back of the mouth, probably wisdom teeth erupting. If so, see wisdom tooth expert. For best results with wisdom teeth, make sure you are evaluated and treated by a board certified oral & maxillofacial surgeon.
