How To Treat Pin Holes And Old Scars In The Teeth?

I have pin holes and old scars from my bad teeth that 10 dentist would not take care of for 20 years my bottom big tooth caped in gold kept absessing for over 20 years. I became very sick I also have tmj now.
any way life long story.
I know a lot and learned a lot and I am still alive I am 54 the gold tooth is gone now.
Only because the dentist was getting ready to retire.
After I returned for the 3rd. time I did not take any antibiotics my choice.
I am getting help with my teeth finally by wonerful doctor dentist.
Is there any thing I can do to heal old uneven skin tissue and pin hole scars?

Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
as you are mentioning , it looks that your tooth was infected and an abscess was formed below the tooth. And when an abscess becomes chronic, it forms a sinus opening, which drains through an opening.
In your case, as now the tooth is removed, the abscess will heal as well as sinus opening will get closed. If not then you should visit an oral surgeon to get diagnosed with the condition and even get stitches done.
Hope it will help you.
