What is the best way to treat gum pain starting in the chin area?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
See a dentist: Gum pain may mean dental decay, receding gums, canker sore, or other pathology so it is best evaluated by a dentist. In the meantime you can use Ora jel or other desensitizing agents like clove oil, or eugenol, swish and spit 1/2 strength hydrogen peroxide (DO NOT SWALLOW), and avoid temperature extremes in food. Good luck

MAKE DENTAL APPT.: Don't waste time see your dentist now. You have a number of problems. Home treatment is a waste of time unless you know what your condition is.
