Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand the pain you are going through right now, and I will do my best to help you. Yes, your assumptions are correct. However, this is a case of acute pericoronitis (a short-term inflammation of the gums surrounding a partially erupted or erupting tooth) with cheek bite marks on the buccal mucosa opposite to the related tooth, as seen in the attached images (attachments removed to protect the patient's identity). I can well appreciate the edematous tissue with the presence of pus and blood.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. Thank you for your query. I can understand the situation you are going through right now. But do you have any habits like smoking or drinking alcohol? Then, I suggest you follow a few instructions mentioned below. Use a soft bristle toothbrush and brush twice daily.
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. I can understand your condition and would love to help you. Both treatment methods will provide excellent results, but it depends on what you prefer the most. For example, if you can resist complex substances or refrain from using your teeth for notable works such as bottle opening, etc., then it would be better to have veneers.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your query and can understand your concern. As a dentist, we always try to preserve the natural tooth structure because no artificial structure can provide you with the same comfort and feel as the natural one. So, we not only do RCT (root canal treatment) when the carious lesion reaches the pulp chamber but tend to advice RCT when the carious lesion is very near the pulp chamber as well, which is evident in your case. Suppose caries reaches the pulp chamber, which, in my opinion, will surely reach there in no time in your case.
