 Part of the human condition involves having to deal with uncomfortable consequences of being human. It is nothing to be ashamed of. This time, we are going to cover what to do if you notice a sore on your gums that will not go away.Chances are, it is likely some type of canker sore. If it lasts in excess of a length of time you begin to worry over it, we suggest you come in for us to give a concise explanation of what is going on. Tackling Sores from the Inside OutEveryone has had to suffer from sores of any kind in our mouths. Taking care of your oral health may avoid this, but even those that are diligent in their care can get canker sores or other identifiable sores. Whether the sensations are burns or stings, these sores often cause pain during common daily activities, such as eating, drinking, or talking. We suggest that you do not try to identify what the sore is and, instead, make a visit to us so that we can handle the situation with your best interests in mind. That said, let's cover what you can do to prevent canker sores in the first place. Methods for Avoiding and Identifying SoresAfter big meals, use a soft-bristled toothbrush and floss. Certain foods may trigger canker sores and this will keep your mouth clean of bacteria which may elicit the growth of sores. All of this said, there are other sores which we are better equipped to identify - it is our job to take care of you. It is what we are here for. If you find yourself with a sore on your gums that will not go away, we suggest you make a stop in our office so that we can assuage any of your worries and direct you on the best method(s) to get rid of the sore. While maybe not the most comfortable reason, we look forward to seeing you. |
