i had my left eyetooth taken out after an accident about 6 mths ago..all has gone well until i felt a slight pain a few days ago. after a closer look, i was shocked to find i have a small rip/hole in my gum just above where the tooth would’ve been. im not in a medicel benefit fund atm and am really afraid there could be bad news waiting for me if i see a doctor. have you heard of this problem before? will it go away on its own? is there a reason for me to be so afraid? or is this a normal thing that will just need a bit of antibiotics?

I have a pain in the gum where a tooth was extracted, what action should I take?
Thursday, January 27th, 2011Should I have a tooth removed to have a bridge re-fitted?
Thursday, January 27th, 2011Hello Dr Moore
I have a bridge of 4 false teeth at the front of my mouth and after 20 years the original K9 has sheared off leaving the bridge loose, I am due soon to have another denture fitted. I believe the sheared tooth will be removed and a compound used instead from the root. I was told after a second opinion within the surgery that this will only last for approx 2-3 years and I really need to consider the screw in option of which will costs me £6000 pounds of which I cannot afford. What can I do. I am seriously considering having all my teeth removed as this will be a cheaper option.
Many thanks

How long will i have to wait to wear a denture after my bone graft?
Monday, January 10th, 2011Hi
I had a front tooth extracted 6 months ago, and due to short roots on my front teeth, a bridge is not an option. I have a denture at the moment, but I have been told if I want an implant, I would need a bone graft first. Will the graft damage or loosen the teeth either side, and how quickly will I be able to wear my denture after the graft. Thanks
