How To Cure Swelling And Bleeding Caused By Crowded Teeth?
I have severely crowded teeth and I have a tooth that sits directly behind on of my front teeth. The gums surrounding that back tooth are very swollen and it bleeds daily. I have also noticed pus lately. Is is possible to just get this tooth removed?

Hello:)Welcome to HCM.
Crowded teeth are responsible for your infection of your gums. Get a complete scaling(cleaning) done.
I strongly recommend, get a consultation from a orthodontist for straightening your teeth.Straightening your teeth will reduce crowding and improve gum health in your case.
He will check your x-rays and will decide if the tooth can be removed.
You did not provide your age either.
Gargle warm salt water twice daily. This will help maintain your gum health.
Regards.
