| Gum pain dentist can't explain
Hi all--
Had my upper right wisdom tooth extracted in may. It was leaning on the tooth next to it and caused decay which they filled that tooth. Before the extraction I was having horrible pain in the space between the wisdom tooth (that was coming in on its side) against the other tooth (that was decaying). I would floss and really smelly stuff came out. Well, after everything was "fixed" I thought these problems would go away. I find that the gums around the tooth that is still there are always irritating me. To the point where i probably overfloss, constantly touch, etc. My dentist says I'm irritating my gums with the floss. So I laid off it for a while, but I'm still feeling a pressure. I don't know what to do!!!
