My wisdom teeth are currently "trying" to come in but I do not have enough room in my mouth for them to come in. My gum over the bottom left wisdom tooth is split. In between my cheek and my wisdom tooth, I have a hard knot, and it hurts to close my mouth tightly. Its causing me pain and head aches. What could this be? Should I go back to the dentist or just wait until my consultation to get my wisdom teeth taken out?
Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic. This all problems are associated with the wisdom tooth only, for relief from them you have to get it removed. But before that you should start with antibiotics and painkiller medications two days before the procedure. If dentist has not prescribed you the medications, then visit him tomorrow and get it done. Hope it will help you.
thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the pain in the head and limited mouth opening is because of the infection in the wisdom tooth. consult your dental surgeon and get the tooth removed prophylactically. take a course of antibiotics and analgesics. do saline gargling. i hope my answer will help you. take care.
