Why do I have pain in left molar region and bleeding gums?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern about your bleeding gums and gingivitis. You need to keep brushing your teeth even though it bleeds. And you also need to get your teeth cleaned (oral prophylaxis). Probable causes include plaque and calculus. I suggest you get an IOPA (intraoral periapical radiograph) for the eighth tooth. The probable diagnoses are periodontitis and pericoronitis with ulcerative gingivitis. I suggest you try some medicines.

Take a tablet of Amoxicillin 500 mg thrice daily for at least one week if you are not allergic to it. Tablet Metronidazole 400 mg thrice daily for at least one week if you are not allergic to it. hydrogen peroxide 6 % three times daily. Also, multivitamins especially vitamin C and B12. Keep doing warm saline gargles. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her, and start taking the medicines after their consent. Brush teeth twice daily using an ultra-soft toothbrush.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

Yes, it is because of the eruption of a wisdom tooth (pericoronitis) as I had mentioned earlier. I suggest you try some measures. Gargle with 20 % Hydrogen peroxide mouthwash. Dilute it with four times the share of (1:4) water. Tablet Ibuprofen twice daily. Or tablet Ofloxacin 200 mg and Ornidazole 400 mg (in place of above mentioned two antibiotics) twice daily. Tablet Ibuprofen or Aceclofenac 200 mg twice daily. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her, and start taking the medicines after their consent.

I hope this helps.
