Asking for Self, Female, 21 years old, karachi
Assalam o Alaikum, My wisdom tooth in lower jaw had been erupting from quiet a while but hasn't erupted completely, It doesn't hurt me or cause me any discomfort but lately i noticed a small soft bump near it, it's the colour of my gum (red) although doesn't look inflamed nor it hurts me at all but i am concerned if it's something dangerous? I cannot visit the Dentist Because I have mild covid symptoms hence if any dentist could guide me and tell me what i could do for it.
walaikum salam
nothing to worry about if it's not painful
just keep a good oral hygiene routine
like warm saline rinses after brushing and try to keep the area around your tooth.clean by careful brushing around that area
For time being gargle with mouth wash once a day. Mouth wash: Listren. Get radiograph ( OPG) once you get recovered from COVID-19 and visit me. If any queries then drop me text.
Ideally, should get it checked. But usually the gums do get swollen when the wisdom tooth is coming out nothing to worry about but evaluating it should be done to rule out any infection.
There is nothing dangerous at all.. What you have to do is take half glass of water and half tea spoon of salt make it light hot for rinse .. do it 3 to 4 times a day for next three days and take Tab Danzan Ds for a 2 to 3 days as BD .. that's it
use mouthwash and maintain good oral hygiene. once your covid clear. make visit near by dentist for dental checkup
Get an OPG xray.
From IDC F8
Wait out your symptoms and then visit the dentist for examination. This sounds like your wisdom tooth is partially stuck and my not erupt completely ever. That soft bump covering it kay get swollen sometimes or the wisdom tooth can decay since it is not easily accessible for the brush. You should visit the dentist and if he/she advises that it should be removed before it causes any trouble then you can decide what you want to do with mutual decision.
w.salam you don't worry in this condition simply you have Used mouth wash (Enziclor) than relief this condition
There is no point in taking any medication since you do not have any symptom. Please fix an appointment to get it checked for decay or any future problem that may be small at the moment
walikum salam.
use mouthwash or gargle with normal saline water.
once you are covid free,get your OPG done n visit a dentist.
try to keep the area clean by brushing and warm saline gargles/
walikum Assalam, there is not to worry if there is no pain, when you are covid free you visit to doctor and check.do warm rinses gargle and maintain oral hygiene.
