Spots along my gum are really starting to hurt and even peel. What’s the cause and is it common?

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010
Q.
Hi, so I have a question regarding my gums. The gum spots where I had my wisdom teeth removed a long while back are really hurting. I noticed they are raw where they started peeling a little, and its really a pain to chew food now. My co-worker said she has had a similar issue. What could be the cause of this? Is this a common thing, or do I need to be concerned?,

I’m experiencing a lot of pain since the extraction of my wisdom tooth, is this normal?

Thursday, July 29th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I had my lower right wisdom tooth extracted in hospital 4 days ago under local. It was very traumatic, and now I am getting a constant throbbing pain all along my jaw line, right up to the socket of my jaw near my ear. I am taking normal paracetemol as well as Ibuprofen but the constant throbbing and aching is starting to take its toll. I’ve done exactly as asked, Corsodyl mouth washes, salt water washes, brushing teeeth after every meal (soup and yoghurt and mashed potato). Is it normal for there to be so much aching and throbbing? My other teeth next to the one which was removed are also feeling “on edge” and sensitive. There is also a foul taste in my mouth despite my regular teeth brushing and mouth washing so am worried I may have dry socket.,

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010
Q.

Thanks in advance!,

Would removing all of my wisdom teeth reduce my overbite?

Monday, June 7th, 2010
Q.
I am 26 and have always had a slight over bite but not serious. However after getting my wisdom teeth through my overbite is much more noticable.

No – wisdom teeth do not direc… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
