Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

Tooth brushes injury can be due to improper or accidental application of pressure which has caused you so much pain .

I would advice you to apply Mucopain /mucogel on the lesion two to three times a day for a while.

Do betadine mouth wash gargling.

If still persisting after a week , consult your dentist .

Hi .... This is called traumatic wound start taking vitamin b complex tablet daily one for 1week . start using dento gel on affected area 3 to 4 times per day .. Avoid spicy and hot food it will take 5 days to heal .. If you are unable to eat food then use augmex - LA
It gives topical anesthetic action ... Hope this will help you
