Hole Near Left Side Wisdom Tooth, Bad Smell. History Of Removal Of Right Side Wisdom Teeth. Suggest
hi, i have a hole near my wisdom tooth at the bottom left side of my mouth, i only noticed it after some food went inside i managed to remove some but they smelt really bad and i think the smell is from the hole and not the food that was inside. should i go see a doctor or is this normal ? :S

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having root infection of wisdom teeth.
Due to infected gum on this tooth food particles lodge in the wound giving rise to infection.
Consult dentist and get it removed.
Do salt water gargles after taking any thing by mouth.
Ok and take care.
