What Treatment Is Suggested For Gum Access On The Upper Gum?

i keep on getting gum abscess in my upper gum. i got it drained one time, then i came back but busted on its own. Now I'm getting another one in the same spot and i feel it in my nose. Plus my left front tooth is a false tooth, i was wondering can that be the cause.

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,
This could be due to infection in the tooth taht had spread to the surrounding tissue leading to the formation of gum abscess.
I would suggest yout to get a thorough checkup done take an x-ray of the region.
Go for complete mouth scaling and polishing.
Take lukewarm saline and antiseptic mouthwash gargles.
Take a course of antibiotics and analgesics.

Take care!
