I currently have braces. Prior to getting them on, I was required to get my wisdom teeth removed. During my healing time I got an infection on the left side of my mouth. My dentist prescribed me antibiotics, I took them all and the infection, they told me, was gone. Then I had to get four more of my teeth removed, two on the bottom, two on the top. During my healing time I got another infection on again the left side of my mouth. They prescribed me more antibiotics. I had to take 4 rounds. They told me the infection went away. I got my braces on and I've had them for about three months now. I have noticed that the ball or swelling in my mouth never fully went away. About 2 weeks ago I noticed that I had these red skin tags on the left side of my gums. I pushed down on one of them and it started bleeding and the tiniest blue and white crystal looking things came out as well, only about 3. I'm concerned and can't wait to see what my dentist says. Please let me know what you think is going on in my mouth. I floss once every two days (at least) brush my teeth twice a day and use mouth wash frequently. Thank you.
