Question: I am a 28 years old female and I have a weird teeth condition that somehow no one is able to completely determine. My gums have become white and raised in last 2-3 weeks and behind the front two teeth, the center skin feels like it has a small blister, sort of. Gums are sensitive to only very hot food and drinks, no sensitivity to cold consumption. There is no bleeding, no pain, no spongy gums, no elongation. Infact they look as if they've been burned(like the skin gets white when it's scalded with hot water) I have a very good dental history. I visit a dentist every 6 months for routine check-ups. I showed my regular dentist this condition who happens to be an MDS with area of speciality in Peridontology and he couldn't find any infection in my mouth or any swelling in my gums. To him the blister looked like some injury. I stopped drinking hot beverages and stopped consuming hot food, started rinsing my mouth with salt water and started massaging my gums with Coconut Oil once a day too. Within 2-3 days my raised gums started settling down in their place and the sensitivity in the front two teeth almost disappeared. It had got better to a great extent, until 2 days ago I accidentally gulped down some very hot coffee. Now, I'm back to square one.
I'm not sure but it feels to me like I may have a yeast infection in my mouth. As the symptoms are somewhat similar(burning sensation in gums & scalded-looking skin), but I don't have any patchy areas on either tongue or cheek or throat. Although I have 1-2 small blisters on the back of my lip area which got developed as soon as I gulped down the coffee 2 days ago. FYI, I am currently undergoing a homeopathic treatment for vaginal yeast infection that has been causing my burning sensation and itching in the vaginal area. And I just got the results yesterday for my urine test and they have detected 20-25 pus cells, 10-15 epithelial cells, 8-10 RBCs & 1+ Protein. My blood sugar is normal. Also, I observed that the vaginal yeast and gums problem started almost around the same time. I think they might be interrelated but I'd appreciate an expert opinion on the same.

Thank you, Doctor. I really appreciate your response. A part of me believed it was some kind of burns or injury too, as the condition was only worsening after consumption of hot food and beverages. I forgot to mention earlier that I sip a lot of hot water on a daily basis, as it helps with my bloating and acidity problems. Even the milk and tea, I used to try taking while burning hot, before this problem occur ed. I didn't know though whether it was possible for the gums to be burnt, as I've never heard of this problem from anyone I ever discussed it with.
From the action plan provided by you, there are a few things I'm doing already, like chewing one Vitamin C tablet daily, applying desensitizing toothpaste, brushing teeth with an ultra-soft brush & applying gum paint over the gum line before going to bed. However, I'd like to bring to your notice that applying gum paint is making my condition worse for some reason, and the blister feels even bigger next morning. On the other hand, coconut oil makes me feel better.
Also, I'm unable to do cold water rinse because I have a sensitive tooth in the lower jaw area that had been drilled & re-filled by 2 different dentists in last 4 years, and as a result it has become sensitive to cold water in last 1 year and drinking anything cold immediately triggers a jaw, ear & eye pain. Only remedy for that problematic tooth has been so far is to brush my teeth with lukewarm water & sip and drink only lukewarm water whenever I'm thirsty too, as I'm avoiding an RCT.
I will start taking multi-vitamin on your advise, and will also suck on ice pops.
Thanks again for your wisely advise.
