you forgot some
I had my two back molars out 4 weeks ago and i thought they had healed up ok; then when i had my brace fitted last friday one of gums where the tooth was extracted started bleeding when i brushed.
Well two days ago i noticed a green blob on the gums, then yesterday it was a bit bigger then today it seemed huge.
so i decided to have a poke at it with my little brace brush , after a few pokes it started to move and fall out of my gums, then too my suprise i realsied it was a bit of my old tooth the dentist forgot to take out.
Thought id share that with u..

It was gross - would the abcess be solid? it feels more like bone!! It looked green when it was in my mouth but now its out, its more white and red.
Ive been washing my mouth out with soap and water every day for weeks, so my mouth should be clean. Although i have been swearig alot lately.
My gum looks loads better now its out, so im hoping its ok. got an appointment on friday afternoon with the dentist so ill see what he says.
Thanks

I'd imagine a salt-water rinse would be more suited for the job, and it would probably taste a tiny bit betterukcolin wrote:It was gross - would the abcess be solid? it feels more like bone!! It looked green when it was in my mouth but now its out, its more white and red.

Call the dentist or orthodontist. Don't let it go. While unusual, people have died from infections in the mouth. Unlikely this will happen, but you could get really sick. Call now.
