Avoid mouthwashes that contain alcohol, which can dry out your mouth. - Stay away from smoking and other tobacco products, which can aggravate bleeding gums. - Eat a balanced diet and limit snacking between meals. Carbohydrates and sugars feed dental plaque. - Try an oral irrigation device, commonly known as a "water pick," to clear debris from around the gum line. - Have your dentures aligned as needed. - You may need deep cleaning along with surgical curettage or gum strengthening procedure.

Dear Lybrate user, you haven't clearly mentioned the details. Is it a back tooth in the last (wisdom tooth) that is hurting? Or is it a decayed tooth with cavity that is hurting? The muscle that you are referring too must be part of your gums that has surrounded the developing wisdom tooth as that is the last tooth to erupt and mostly starts coming at your age. If that is the case, you can take a pain killer after consulting your dentist. Your dentist can check it and also take xray if required to know the exact position in which the tooth is erupting. In the meanwhile, also rinse your mouth with warm salt water 3-4 times daily and maintain good oral hygiene.

Kindly consult a dentist in person for further suggestion. We need more investigations with clinical examination to decide upon treatment. You may need Coronoplasty (smoothen teeth edges) along with Multivitamin cap, for five days in the morning after meals & antiseptic ointment or gel on the area of ulcer until then.
