You may need coronoplasty (smoothen teeth edges) along with multivitamin cap, for five days in the morning after meals & antiseptic ointment or gel (turbocort) on the area of wound until then. This is common and rarely cause complications. Most go away in about a week, but it?s important to monitor any such wound you develop. If you are concerned, or if the sore doesn?t seem to be healing, contact your dentist rinse your mouth thoroughly with a mouth wash after every meals.
