Answer 1

The mouth naturally has a lot of bacteria. Most times, the bacteria are not harmful unless the balance of the bacteria is changed or they are given a new place to grow and cause infection (i.e. when you bite into your tongue). Usually the body will fight off the infection. Injuries in the mouth are painful, but heal up within a week or so. You should see a dentist to make sure the infection has not spread and is healing properly.

Answer 2

yeah i have and it bleed and hurt like the devil. It usually doesn't take the mouth or the eye as long to heal. but it can take around 2 to 3 weeks. if it doesn't stary feeling better at least by the end of the second week see a dentist or doctor for help and advise.

Answer 3

I usually open my mouth and let it overload my a**. Word of advise? Weigh the situation before you open your mouth, if you decide not to bite your tongue, be careful what you say and how you say it. If it is about someone's husband\boyfriend and they already know how you feel, trust me, they know....the best thing after you have made you feelings for that person clear is to shut the f*** up. LOL. I learned this the hard way, it wasn't pleasent for either party involved. So I have learned to weigh the situation before I open my mouth.

Answer 4

in general, cuts in your mouth heal very quickly. As to whether you should go to a doctor or dentist, I'm afraid that's up to you. Was it very deep?

Answer 5

THERE IS MUCH TO DO BUT LET TIME HEAL THIS. SEE A DENTIST IF THIS OCCURS OFTEN, AS THERE MAY BE SOMETHING THAT CAN BE CHANGED WITH YOUR DENTAL OCCLUSION.
