Good Evening,
Hope you are all having a good evening. I have a question, I need to explain first. In the last 4 years I have had an all four root canal on the same molar.
Throughout the 4 years I have had pain around the gum line three times not the tooth, antibiotics don't help. They took an Xray and it shows a black area on my jaw just below that tooth. Now the gum which is closest to my cheek has a lump with a white patch on it. It hurt to the touch and on the other side of that tooth at the gum line has an electrical feel when touched.
Does anyone have any ideas of what it might be?
Thank you.
Hope you all have a wonderful night. ;)

I had this twice when I was a kid or at least it sounds the same.. It was a pocket of infection, now I am not sure what they will do with you being an adult but when I had this as a kid the best thing they could do was pull the tooth to let the infection drain out...

I would suggest getting into your dentist, because if this is what it is, mine both times ended in me having to go to the dentist because the side of my face that it was on swelled out so huge..... Good Luck
