Good oral health is connected to your over-all health!. You should see a dentist and continue doing so!. If you have an infection you need to get antibiotics!. There are dentists available that will even do a simple cleaning while you're under sedation!. Look for "sedation dentistry" in your local yellow pages!. Be brave!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sounds like you could have an abscess- which is sort of an infection "bubble" that you do NOT want to pop!

The pain in the gum was probably due to the infection!. In other words, even if mom wanted you to wait until you were really bad, now is the time!.

The initial problem could be from decay or a crack in the root (that's what my husband had)!.

You could try rinsing with a mix of 1/2 water to 1/2 peroxide!. This helped my hubbie (he used it in a water pik), but it did not solve the problem!. He still ended up having to have the tooth removed as his body was fighting the infection and eventually it destroyed the bone around the root!.

If you do not get help, it is quite possible you could lose your tooth and that can lead to many other problems which would lead to more time in the dentist's office!.

Many dentists have sedation or other means to make the visit less painful or nerve wracking! So call and tell them what is going on so you get in right away, and so your nerve issue can be addressed!.

Boron plays a role in regulating the hormones!.

And you haven't seen the dentist for this, WHY!? Listen, my Dad is a pain management specialist!. He said this to me the other day;

"I just don't understand it!. People will have these problems FOR MONTHS, and then finally go see the doctor!. They should be going to see a specialist within days if it continues, not months!."

In other words, see a doctor ASAP if the problems persist!. Don't wait six months and then go complain on Yahoo Answers, asking people what to do!. You already know the answer!. GO SEE A DOCTOR!. I'm sorry if this comes off as agressive, but nothing bothers me more then people being lazy and getting more hurt as a result!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
