Is Soreness In The Mouth Normal After Deep Dental Cleaning And Crown Replacement?

went to my dentist for a deep cleaning and crown replacement. He said my gums were shredding and bleeding very heavily and gave e a prescription for Magic Mouthwash. That was two days ago. My mouth is still sore and there appear to be sores on my gums. Is this normal?

Hi,

Soreness in the mouth normal after deep dental cleaning and crown replacement. Need not to worry about it, its just appliance have not been placed correctly and it is causing irritation on upper mucosa and leads to formation of swollen bump.

I would suggest you to visit dentist once and get pressure relieved on your denture with the help of support of adjacent tooth which will act as abutment. Till then don't prick that bump as if it is really big in size and interfering in swallowing incision and drainage will be done by dentist.

Take antibiotics such as Ibuprofen to prevent infection to further spread in oral cavity. Drink plenty of water. Take soft diet. Maintain hygiene of oral cavity by brushing and flossing very gently.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
