Answer 1

I know this may sound weired, but try taking a benadryl, just to check to see if it is an allergic reaction...if that doesn't do the trick, you may have infected gums, or a problem under the surface, you may need to see a dentist.

Answer 2

No doubt, you have to see a dentist. Have them take xrays of your entire mouth to determine if there is an abcess (infection) at the roots of any of your teeth.

Also, if you still have your wisdom teeth and they are coming in horizontal under the gums, you wouldn't even see them at the surface. They might be infected. The only way to know this is if xrays are taken.

Either way, go to the dentist. Far too many people ignore a small dental problem and eventually it becomes a major, costly, painful problem.

Good luck!

Answer 3

When this happened to me it turned out to be serious tooth infection that had got in through a leaky filling. The dentist took weeks to find it, but when he did said the some nerves cover large areas of the mouth so if you get a problem there it is difficult to locate.

Answer 4

Yeah...go see the dentist quick....just because your teeth don't hurt doesn't mean there isn't a problem...Plz go see the dentist.

It could be gum disease, root of a tooth infection...any number of things....dentistry via the computer is not real reliable....speak to a professional upfront and personal.
