Can a temporary on a tooth cause pain in gum?

Q. I have a temporary on a tooth. It has been in for about 2 weeks. Just recently my gum in front of the temporary is really hurting and is bothering me above the tooth and in between the tooth. What should I do? I have flossed and no food is coming out? Could it be that I have cut the gum with my floss?

A. It does sound like a gum problem, get your dentist to check it out next week
