Suggest Treatment For Broken Tooth

I used to drink a lot of coca cola for many many years (I stopped now for 1 month so far) my tooth messed up because of it now i have teeth missing on the side of my mouth because of the fizzy drinks and some is broken. But my question is i have a pulse in my cheek what is that? How can i fix it?

Hi
I am assuming after a long experience with soda drinks you are now very well aware of the harmful effects of the same .i appreciate your concern and motivation for stopping the malhabbit as well.
Now ..the pulse ( i am assuming two meanings here )
1)if your talking about a pulse shaped sweeling on your cheek the weakened tooth has a tendency to get fractured as well as get lodged in a pit/space/vestiblue of your mouth pretty inconspiciously . many a times it gets unnoticed and tissue growth over it leads to pulse in that particular area . suggest you to visit an oral surgeon and get rid of the pulse because if it is no mopre a part of your tooth ,it doesnt have to be a part of your mouth either .

2)if you mean a pulsation(like heartbeat) in the corner of your mouth near the jawline ,it is absoultely normal as it is just the pulsation of your facial artery passing through the same region probably with your blood pressure a bit on the higher side for you . keep your b.p in check though .
hope this was of some help

take care .
