I have got gum problem from last 2 days, the gums behind my lower tooths have come below the point where it should be (the point where gum attaches with the teeth). It's looking me like it's swollen. Also, my bottom 3 teeth always feel like I have eaten lemon. It was paining a lot initially, so I took some pain killer, started using sensodine and using Smyle gel (used for ulcer). My pain has stopped now and I'm feeling better than before. I have stopped taking pain killers but still using Smyle gel. Now, a smaller portion at the front part of bottom teeth gum appears red swollen but it's not paining a lot. Shall I consult a dentist or this can be cured by some medicine. If can be cured by medicine than which one to take. Thanks.

Its better that you check up with a dentist so that you can get the right guidance. Take care of overall nutrition and oral hygiene on a daily basis so that you don't spend lots of money for dental problems later.

Hello You must consult a dentist for gum problems and also for swelling. Pain may occur later or may not, but once you have to consult so that they can treat well and you will never suffer again. Regards Dr. Purva BDS.
