I got a cut from flossing yesterday. After i flossed, i put on Crest Whitestrips, and it started to sting my gums. This morning i brusted my teeth, and it stung some more. Just now i brushed my teeth, and it still stung. I need to put on Crest Whitestrips later, but i can't because the pain i felt yesterday was unforgiving.
How can i heal cuts that are in my mouth? Gargle salt water?

I've cut my gums with floss too. I just rinced my mouth with water and It stoped. If its big enough, then salt water should do the trick. Good luck :)

They have medicine for canker sores that helps. Try gargling with peroxide.

THINKS HEAL RELATIVELY FAST IN THE MOUTH.
REMEMBER BITING YOUR TONGUE OR LIP?
IN A FEW DAYS ALL WILL BE WELL. BE GENTLE WHEN YOU FLOSS NEXT TIME.
