Why Am I Having Painful Swollen Gums Behind My Two Front Incisors?
I'm having an issue with my two front teeth.. I have swollen gums behind my two front incisors and it hurts to eat anything hard, but sometimes it goes away then comes back. Its very annoying and brushing my teeth in the morning there hurts tremendously.
Hi! Welcome to Healthcaremagic. I read your query. Swelling in gum behind front teeth can be either due to gum disease, trauma or caries. Check if there is some cavity in those teeth or adjacent teeth. In that case you need to visit a dentist, get an x ray done and it will require RCT of affected tooth/teeth. If its gum disease, it can be due to trauma e.g. tooth brush trauma etc. or some plaque calculus. In that case you need scaling and curettage. Get a prescription of antibiotics and painkiller for yourself. Do warm saline rinses. Take healthy diet and multivitamins. But for permanent treatment you need to visit a dentist. Hope the answer helps you. Thank you!
