hi,
this can be most probably due to cheek biting, i.e. while chewing or otherwise your cheek comes in between your teeth...apply pressure in outward direction with thumb for a couple of minutes multiple times a day and massage with a gum paint having tanic acid. do consult with your dentist...

visit your dentist .your dentist will check the wisdom tooth with respect to its eruption status,inclination, prospects of hygiene maintainance . whether it needs extraction if at all it is trapping a lot of food and debris and leading to a localized infection in that wisdom tooth region leading to sore throat or pain while swallowing can be advised to you only after the dentist inspects that area.you might require an xray a local one or a full mouth xray (opg).

wisdom tooth might have got erupted slightly leading to exposure of small tooth portion and space between tooth and overlying tissue where food particles get entrapped. this some times lead to sore throat. please visit ur dentist for opinion of tooth eruption clinically

Can be because of cheek bite or pressure of the wisdom tooth/teeth.
apply orasep LA gel on the affected area 3-5 times/day and rinse with warm water + salt and massage
if it does not become better in a week then will need to look at it

Hello! The wisdom tooth must be buccally erupted and must be impinging on the cheek mucosa while swallowing.Might just require slight reshaping/trimming of the tooth or might require as much as extraction.So visit a dentist and in the meantime do H2O2 gargles and apply anesthetic gel on the mucosa if its hurting......VISIT your dentist.

Hi,
May be your wisdom tooth is erupting, and the gums surrounding the tooth is infected. Just visit your dentist and take an Antibiotic course if needed. Nothing to worry.

Hello, You have written that you are not diabetic. For natural protection from fungal infection and also to help healing , one should protect the affected parts from accumulation of humidity. Exposure to fresh air freely and keeping it reasonably dry helps healing. Exposure to hot climate should be avoided. Over the counter Fluconazole lotion is a simple remedy to help by local application. This is not a dangerous illness or condition. Feel free to ask more questions. ...

Hello i had my no 48 wisdom tooth removed on thursday morning and its been nearly 3 days now. What i wanted to know was i have noticed yesterday and today that the gum which had folded over the extraction site has receeded and left behind a thin white strand of tissue. is this a normal part of the healing process. I am not in any pain and have not smoked since the day of extraction (before). Also i know your advice will be to stop permanently but how long should i wait till i can smoke again

  Doctor's Answer

The tissue tag should resolve in 7-14 days max. rinse with warm water (mix in salt) 3-5 times a day to help keep the wound clean. smoking is a personal choice. IF you truly have NOT smoked post extraction you may start now. ...

My left wisdom tooth has been growing in side ways, but has not been able to come in fully. It started hurting about two days ago. I did not think anything of it and thought it was just growing in more. There was a flap of skin/gum covering part of the tooth. When I went to brush my teeth this morning, I noticed that part of it (underneath where the skin covered before) was now a blackish color. I got a sore throat and swollen lymph nodes only on the left side of my throat around the same time my tooth started hurting. Are these related? I have a dentist appointment in a week. Is there anything I can do to help it to make it better or ease the pain? It hurts to chew on that side of my mouth and it hurts when I swallow. Will my tooth be okay until I get to the dentist and what will be done by the dentist? Do you think my tooth is infected? Will I have to take antibiotics?

I have had wisdom tooth issues for the last few years. For the second time this year I am experiencing a "locking" of the jaw. My two wisdom teeth are laying sideways instead of straight up, and they both have cracked and broken exposing the nerve. I can barely open my mouth more than an inch, can't fit a fork in there, can't yawn. It hurts. I do not have dental insurance and want to know if I go to the ER can they at least give me an antibiotic or something to alleviate the pain. It is the weekend, and Tuesday is Christmas so my primary care doctor is closed.
