Suggest The Cause For Hole In The Gum
I have a hole in my gum back behind my last molar on the upper right side of my mouth. I have all my wisdom teeth still, my dentist said they didn't need to be removed. I woke up one morning to find this rather large hold in my gum. Just wondering what it is.

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have hole in gums behind last molar dont worry this can be due to periodontal pocket formation , or due to Caries in last molar tooth .
Consult dentist and go for treatment if it is carious then go for restoration of tooth if it is periodontal problem then go for Currettage .
Hope this will help you.
