As you have mentioned that you are suffering from immunocompromised disease. In any immunocompromised patients there is increased risk of developing dental caries and other problems related to gums. So special care should be taken to avoid dental problems.U can use chlorhexidine mouthwash regularly to minimize the risk of developing dental problems. If you are experiencing pain in any of your teeth please visit dentist to to investigate the cause and do the needful treatment.
