Noticed Indents On The Inside Of My Bottom Lip From The Top Teeth

My son head butted me and cut the inside of my lip pretty good from my teeth. Can that also cause bruising on the outside of my lip? Also I dont think that has anything to do with this but I have indents on the inside of bottom lip from the top teeth. I have an absessed tooth so not sure if that would be the cause.

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM

I have gone through your query, as you have indent on lower lips , and abscessed tooth dont worry , for abscess tooth you should consult dentist and go for Root canal treatment if it is periapical abscess , and if it is periodontal abscess then go for Oral prophylaxis ,

As you have indent on lip , if it is huting you , then you can apply ointment Mucopain or Dologel twice daily

Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day

Consult dentist as early as possible and go for proper treatment.
Hope it will help you.
