Does it go away by itself, i almost didn't eat 2 days now only a bit i got some antibiotics and stuff, please reply my whole mouth hurts multiple teeth and my tongue i hope it goes away by itself i can't afford a dentist
God same here it hurts to swallow my own saliva n to Open my mouth to eat the meat is covering half of my wisdom tooth it is also starting to decay. I have no insurance the pain is so Unbearable that i decided to pay for it but man it’s impossible worst pain ever is a toothache . Have an appointment in 2 weeks don’t know how ima remain alive for these two weeks !! 🥺🥺😩😩
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld yeah it does work but I have this pain that gives me problems like a lot of times of the day it doesn’t hurt to much but it’s annoying so what I do it’s I rinse with mouthwash it hurts but it reliefs the pain
It was a bit difficult but getting better now..Unlucky me I've 3 more wisdom teeth inside. I've gone through some of your tooth extraction videos as well. It gave me some idea before my surgery.. Now Ice Creams and Ice packs my best buddies 😁
You saved my wisdom tooth Dr Paul. I had intense pain and mild swelling coming from one of my wisdom teeth for the past few days. It turns out there was a piece of food stuck under the gum, just like you said. I am not able to get an appointment with a dentist for one week. So your insights have saved me, thank you.
@@lotachukwumagerate1934 First I took the pain killer prescribed by Dr Paul in this video. After a few hours the pain had reduced enough for me to open my mouth fully. It was then that I saw that piece of food under my gum. From there I turned on my electric toothbrush and brushed my wisdom tooth for about 5 minutes. First straight down on the wisdom tooth, this dislodged a large portion of the food. I then turned the brush so that the bristles were going under my gum (or at least as close to that as I could get), and got a fair bit more out. After that, I used the mouth wash prescribed by Dr Paul in this video. I repeated this process for one week (slowly reducing the amount of time I would brush, back to my usual two minutes). After the first brush the intense pain never came back. After the third day the mild swelling around my wisdom tooth and jaw started to reduce. After one week, I was 100% again... although my wisdom tooth is still looking a bit dirty from not being brushed properly for many years.
Been saying that my tooth hurts and here comes this guy saying it’s my gum… I feel better knowing what’s going on in there 😅 thank you for all this information!
After brushing really well with arm and hammer baking soda toothpaste, I use a syringe with warm salt water to get directly under the gums and rinse away anything I’ve missed helps a lot
this has easily been the most helpful and concise video that i've watched on how to get some relief from my wisdom teeth. the tip about trimming down a toothbrush and actually showing how the bristles can reach super far back and down into the gum behind the tooth, i can't express how much just this simple thing has made my mouth so much more tolerable
You're a great doctor, rather than just suggesting to get wisdom teeth removed, you offer solutions. I for one don't want to remove them because given a few years and mewing, there'd gonna be enough space for wisdom teeth inside my mouth
Have a dentist appointment in 5 days, it’s 2:30 am and wisdom tooth is keeping me awake. Was able to get a little relief thanks to your advice, hopefully I can get to sleep soon. Thanks for video, you’re a huge help!
Been suffered from wisdom teeth back there but last month after watching your video I decided to go to the dentist and he removed all three of them right now ifeel so much better I can eat anything I want hot or cold food, so thankful to you
Been suffering for 3 years. The pain is insane and I have some infections in my gums. And I don't have enough money to do anything about it. I love America's unaffordable dental care
Ye it's frustrating that's dentistry is expensive. There are lots of reasons why it is, but I won't go into that. I'm playing devil's advocate here - I find sometimes that people who complain about the cost of dentistry, turn out to also have the latest phone or TV, a subscription service to Netflix etc.. and I can't help but feeling like if some of that money ($20/wk for example) was put aside for the teeth, although expensive, they would be able to afford it. Just a thought
They do and your videos are awesome. I mean I am saving up for my impacted wisdom teeth to be removed. I've already been talking to a dentist at Aspen dental near where I live. And I was being a little hyperbolic, rn I'm just in a tough spot financially and recently it's felt unaffordable but soon I'm gonna be grinding to get all my extractions and my dentures. They told me at 23 I need dentures which honestly I don't mind. The pain is just insane and I'm scared of getting a absess cause recently the pain has been impacting my jaw and ears more. Sorry this was kinda a ramble but your a awesome guy. I'm gonna look into that temporary tooth putty. Might help with some of my teeth that are exposed
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld also I do agree if u have free money for luxuries such as subscriptions and etc that money could quickly be saved up for teeth issues
Dr. Paul!!! THANK YOU for not telling me i'm about to die from a brain infection within 2hrs-7 days because I have an inflamed gum. lol ty so much for the tips!
i’m 16 and my wisdom teeth are growing, i’m in such big pain :( they’ve been hurting for a week, but i can only see a dentist in like 3 days. tysm for this video i really do appreciate it.
im in the same situation except a dentist visit isnt going to be for a while and argh almost a quarter of my mouth is off limits for anything because of how much it hurts :(
Hey thanks alot for ur video I had severe swelling from past 2 days on my cheek I followed ur instructions for my my gum infection and I did try ice pack and brushing hardly under the gum I could see a food particle coming out from inside the gum I feel so relieved after removing... Tysm u saved me😀
Well I may go but I always cried and something too, but they always kind sleep I don't know why but my mom helped me and I'm so appreciative of that door that you're send this video for me and other people thank you so much
Good tips! Thank you. Golden Seal helps, and I use essential "clove oil" saturated with a few drops of coconut oil on a cotton ball to place on the swelling. (Caution not to swallow the clove oil). I really appreciate the narrowing of the tooth brush tip. I'll start doing that today. Thanks again!
thank you for this! Im 16 and have had gum pain on and off but this round of pain is really bad. my wisdom teeth are still growing so my gums are super swollen and it's been hard to sleep from the pain. Ive been takin acetaminophen and using ice and its done wonders! im trying to get an appointment with my dentist asap as well:)
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH🎉 . I WENT TO BRUSH THE TOOTH AREA AS YOU SUGGESTED AND IT WORKED. THE PAIN IS SO LIGHT I KEEP FORGETTING ABOUT IT. IT ALSO RELEASED PRESSURE AND IS GRAUDUALLY GETTING SMALLER. I FEEL MUCH BETTER NOW.😊
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld thanks again because of you i got know my main problem is gum not actually teeth. I was doing everything to cure teeth i should be doing something to cure gum..
I very rarely leave comments on any videos but you saved me! I was in so much pain and waiting for my dentist appointment. I feel so much better, thank you!!!
Ive been in pain for weeks i have been to dentist twice ad two lots of anibiotics 3rd time i need them hes referring me to hospital for removal hopefully this week i get something for the pain its horrendous ive read some coments and ive brushed mouth wash into the gum and tooth released some pain thankyou
Good luck with it! Will be great once they're gone. This is a good video to watch about how to heal faster. There are things you can do beforehand so watch it soon czcams.com/video/y5fAn65qvQE/video.html
Thanks for the video! I'm currently experiencing a lot of head pressure and even ear popping due to my top wisdom teeth pushing. So far my gum feels fine. Just a lot of head pressure (typically in the back of my head and temples area) as well as muscle tension in my upper neck muscles and upper back/shoulders. Would you recommend these tips still for someone just experiencing pressure and muscles aches and not a lot of gum pain? Thank you!
Hey Victoria, good question. Probably not then. You may find relief from pain medications like paracetamol (acetaminophen) and ibuprofen which is anti inflammatory. If it is from the wisdom teeth coming through and putting pressure, it may just be something that passes with time and pain relief in the meantime might help.
Hey! I’m experiencing the same thing you did where there’s constant head pressure on the back and sides of my head for days with the muscles pains as well and I’ve noticed my wisdom teeth are coming in but no gums pain. Did you ever figure out if your wisdom teeth were the actual source of ur pain? Thank you!
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld It helped a lot, thanks! The pain became much less. I went to the dentist the next day and they cleaned and cut away gum around my wisdom tooth. It seems all better now.
Doc, I've been suffering from severe pain for almost a year now because of my wisdom teeth growing both left and right side, the left side wisdom tooth is the one causing unbearable pain, it doesn't have any holes in it, or gum infection, it just hurts so much because it's pushing the tooth before it and the pain is I swear unbearable 😭. What should I do, taking ibuprofen eases the pain but after I eat it'll come back😭
Try oil pulling, a teaspoon of coconut oil, swish around with saliva in your mouth for 5 minutes, spit it outside and not in the basin because it's oil...Rinse out with water. You can do this as many times as you want, I recommend twice works well.... use this twice a day. Bentonite clay is good for brushing your teeth, it doesn't taste good but it works..also Baking soda toothpaste is great...these are all natural products and can help you until you see a dentist.
Hi doc, I have had that pain for more than 2 years, it usually comes after a period of time with sharp pain. But for the last three weeks the pain is getting worser which has lead to loss of weight. I have tried this procedure but my pain it's still the same. I visited the dentist yesterday and she gave me aceclofenac which am still in pain. My jaw is swollen, it has become hard to talk, swallowing the food is a big problem. Hope to get the reply soon Thank you
Had the gum pain one a couple of weeks ago, just had it removed last Wednesday along with a top wisdom tooth which the oral surgeon said that would cause pain eventually. Didn't think the actual pain from the infected gum + impacted tooth would hurt less than the recovery + surgery lol. Wish I found this video sooner tho in the lead up to last week though!
My wisdom tooth pain was subsiding and then my birthday came, and a few beers and some cake later I'm back to square one with the pain! my fault lol. Good thing I got some hydrogen peroxide mouth wash lying around lol.
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld The tooth is just growing and I can already feel the part of the tooth a little bit . My only fear is since I have my braces on so will this wisdom tooth would effect the on going braces treatment ?
Ah OK. Sounds like it is on its way up. It won't affect your braces, but your orthodontist might suggest removing it afterwards to avoid any potential gum issues etc
Yeah exactly ! It's on it's way up . I came to know that my wisdom tooth has started coming after I got my braces , after like some 6th or 7th month of tightening . Thank you for guiding 😃
Buy some cloves. Put two cloves in your mouth near toothache leave it there. If that doesnt ease pain try this .. Another option make a paste w/clove powder and olive oil put paste near ur toothache and leave it there. Repeat when necessary. Also I wrap my head tightly to also ease the pain. Still go to the dentist to get tooth removed when you have time.
I’m on day 3 and the pain just gets worse and worse. I have no hole in my tooth, but the gum is visibly swolen, bleeding, and dead (white) in some areas touching my tooth. this is my lower left tooth.
I've been in ICU from a motorbike accident... 6 broken ribs, punctured lung, herniated belly button, broken clavicle, broken knee and road rash.... A walk in the park compared to the wisdom tooth pain I've experienced... 😅
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld thanks Dr Paul... It's really hits different, tooth pain... May I ask off topic? What is the correlation between tooth Loss and dementia? It's there a medical link? Been seeing it a bit lately... Have a blessed day 🙏
been suffering for 4 days now. My jaw locked can't even open my mouth and eat because of the swelling it's so painfull. It feels like someone's choking you.
My tooth pain is extremely weird I’ve tried most of your recommendations nothing seems to work. It’s only when I drink coffee I get immediate relief my wisdom tooth pain goes away for hours but comes back again I try other things nothing drink black coffee again it’s gone 😯😯😯😯
Try mastermedi Zinc Oxide Eugenol Cement Dental Care Kit Glue For Crowns & Bridges Filling to fill teeth. It's a good kit, and the fillings last a really long time. Nothing like what you'd buy over the counter.
Hi Dr.Paul. I kinda have a probem. Since I was 15 whenever I have a tooth infection the swelling doesn’t go down. I mean at all. So since 15 my right cheek under eye was bigger. And now one day My left cheek got swollen and I did a xRay. My dentist said that I have a wisdom teeth but it’s still early to get out. But she says that my cheek’s not swollen. The swelling was actually the reason that got me to the doctor. I never understand why don’t my swelling go down. I can’t find anything in google. Dentist doesn’t believe me but I have a very asymetric face. Please help me!
There’s only one solution for quick result. Get yourself a nice water flosser which will shoot water with pressure underneath your swollen gums. And boom job done. Your swollen gums pain will disappear. Use either warm salt water or mouthwash.
My wisdom tooth has half emerged and other half is behind the gum it’s not titled or angled so I’m guessing it will just grow out on itself?? It does cause a lot of pain randomly so I’m gonna use these things thnx!
How is your tooth now? For mine there's only a small part covered by gum but it is causing a lot of pain randomly. Like sudden sharp pains. Previously my tooth managed to push through a gum flap but now it is taking so long
@@yashny I’m pretty sure it just stuck there lol but it doesn’t hurt and my dentist wanted me to take the tissues off but I had a wedding to attend to next day so.. but the pain goes :)
I'm currently in tooth pain hell! I have been trying to work the system for 3 yrs. I am in massive pain but require a hospital dentist and there are so few of them that the waitlists are years long. I was last told 4-6 years. By then I would be dead! I am only in this situation because dentists all turned me away due to allergies to materials, medication, dysphagia, arrhythmias, blood pressure, etc. My quality of life is horrible. I'm on my 3rd round of antibiotics in about 6 months. I've needed root canals, had broken, exposed nerve teeth, old fillings, issues from negligent dental work, wisdom teeth pushing on my exposed, broken, rotting teeth and causing excruciating pain in my jaw, ear, gland, neck, teeth, gums, and head. There are only a handful of hospital dentists. The world needs more for special needs/ people with disabilities, etc. We need a better healthcare system that supports and includes dental health including crowns and things needed to keep teeth and the jaw healthy. My jaw is misaligned, my cheeks are caving and I am STILL looking for help. The doctors, dentists, and insurance bounce it back and forth to you. If anyone is in the dental field, social work, medical world or anything that can help with these things it would really be appreciated especially at a state/county /medicaid/medicare/medical level. Thank you for your video. I'm off to try the peroxide!
Thank you! I have the gum issue with my wisdom tooth :,( I bought those little brushes you use for braces! It works well. I’m going to try the stuff you recommended because now the swelling is getting in the way of my speaking and eating from time to time. I have a dentist appointment to ask about getting it removed soon though!
You are a genius Doctor, really your informations are more helpful for me. I have one doubt that I'm suffering from ear pain in night following with the wisdom'S tooth nearby gum. Suggest me one good solution other than extraction
In severe cases, it won't go down all the way. Some cases need to be thoroughly cleaned by a dentist under local anaesthetic. But, they should help. If they don't, it might be worth visiting a dentist
On to 5th day from having inpacted wisdom tooth out. Never know pain like it I've had 4 stitches and I could seriously cry. I'm absolutely fed up with the pain I just want it to go. 8ve just got some corsodyl and ibuprofen and paracetamol. Hopefully some relief. The actual area doesn't look to bad but I'm still swollen.
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld don't be sorry lol. Yep I wasn't expecting it to be that bad it's actually a lot better but from what the surgeon said some people heal better than others. Finally my stitches have desolved. Definitely first week is the worse.
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld ive only just realised the stitches were from when they cut the gum. I thought it was the tooth they stitched. Would explain why I still have a hole in my gum where my wisdom tooth was. Lol. And also explained I may have had dry socket as I'm sure sure my clot vanished which would explain the horrendous pain I suffered. Now I need wait for my hole to somehow heal.
Yeah whenever the gum is cut we try and switch it back together. Could have possibly been dry socket, the pain from that normally starts on day 2-5 and lasts for a week or so. Healing (the hole filling) will happen, but it will be slow. 3 months or so
Hey Dr my wisdom tooth started coming in about 4 years ago and every year it's gets really painful especially in winter or when theres a change of season, I use medicine such as paracetamol and ibuprofen and even clove oil but none seem to give a long lasting effect, I once had a fun infection because of it last but I managed to fix at the dentist but now the pain and swelling keeps coming back what do you recommend? Will the extraction be difficult since I'm over 25?
Hmm, sounds like you should have it removed. In terms of difficulty/pain/healing with the extraction, age is a factor, but it doesn't change things too much. Under 25, the bone is a little softer so the teeth can come out easier, but each tooth and situation is different. If the tooth is out of the gum a little, that can make it a little easier than ones that are under the gum.
I have Nuroprogen and it gives me that pain relief for atleast two hours. If you buy it, I recommend having it before big activities like going places and before you sleep.
My wisdom teeth is growing in instalment basis 🙄🙄....am so pissed off with this stupid pain .....the pain is at another level....what do i do? Dental check up is soooooooooooooo expensive here in Australia......hellllpppppp😟😟
Hi came across your video. My situation is that the gum over the tooth has been burned off a long time ago and I have an old filling so I can’t see any holes also the tooth is loose. I’ll try one of your remedies and hopefully it helps with the pain
Hi, Dr. Paul. Currently, my wisdom teeth are popping in, but I only see a little bit of white/teeth back there. Is it normal if only one side hurts? As far as I know, I only have two wisdom teeth. But, only my top right one hurts. Should I be concerned about this or no? I heard that impaction can happen. I been drinking ice water to maybe help soothe the gum in between using an ice pack.
Hi there. Sounds pretty normal tbh. I have lots of patients that don't have pain on both sides, even though they look the same. So whatever works for you for pain relief. Impaction can happen, yes. It's only possible to know this with some dental xrays
What a beautiful man. Thank you for the tips doctor🥴 Wisdom tooth pain is no joke >,< Appreciate how you explained everything. I always wondered why people brushed their teeth after each meal :o They had the right idea I'm gonna start doing that. THANK GOD I was able to schedule an appointment to see my dentist today. Anyhow I hope you fellow wisdom tooth victims find relief soon! Have a great day/ hang in there :)
Woke up this morning and my wisdom tooth is hurting so bad. I'm hypersalivating. The pain is unbearable and it hurts to talk. I didn't hear you mention anything about over salivating, should I be concerned?
Very informative. Thanks Doc. I've been advised to have my wisdom tooth removed. Is that advisable to just have a permanent filling done instead of the tooth completely extracted? I'm just not mentally prepared for a tooth extraction procedure lol 😅😆
You're welcome! Were you told to have it removed because of decay or because of the gum? If it is because of decay, then you can have a filling done, but it won't last forever and will need to be replaced. Typically we remove the tooth, so you don't have to worry about it ever again. Unless, you are using the tooth for chewing and it is a 'functional' tooth. So the decision is up to you 😁
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld haha 😅 I was told to have it removed because of a deep cavity. I try and avoid biting on my left side but was wondering if it's still fine to just manage with a filling...
If it is a deep cavity on a wisdom tooth, it is probably going to be very difficult for them to fix, and it will cause you problems in a few years and you will have to have it removed then. You may as well take it out now tbh.
I brushed my teeth for 2 mins strate. Than brushed my teeth with ajax lemon soap. (Yes it tasted horrible) and than ambosol. I need a dentist bad I kept putting it off. I drink so much gaterade my right wisdom tooth is half gone from sugar. It's all black and decayed. I didn't feel any pain than 10 months ago I pain but went away and I dodged the dentist all this time now it's like an agonizing constant ache. Just did my remedy (temporary) and now looking up what I should do about getting it extracted Peace guys thanks for everyones methods and inputs I'm reading these on here and the video ofc
My top right wisdom tooth shattered over a year ago and I have lived in pain and constant head spins for almost 7 months now everyday, all day long worst thing ever guys take care of your teeth trust me!! Not worth the 2 minutes you would lose out of your day brushing!
Hey Doc Paul. Thank you for this helpful video. I need your sound advice please. 2 weeks ago, I started having shooting pain from my wisdom tooth and so I went to the dentist and x-rays showed that my wisdom tooth is healthy, no cavities and filling is intact. Dentist can not figure out where the sensitivity is triggered from. And another thing, my tooth has somehow moved lowed which causes friction with the tooth below it, I talk with a lil lisp now. Please help. I do not want to extract the healthy tooth but I am having shooting pain every now and then and what bothers me the most is my lisp.
Hi Nikki, I'm glad you liked the video. In regards to the pain, what triggers the pain? Is it getting any worse, better, or the same? Are you sure it is from the wisdom tooth? Are you saying the upper or the lower wisdom tooth moved lower? It is hard to make suggestions without seeing you in person.
Thanks for the most detailed explanation. It's very much appreciated. Is it possible to have the overlapping gum surgically removed by the way? I would rather have THAT done now that the pain has subsided.
You can. There's two ways - one is to remove just the gum, and the other is to remove gum and bone. The one where you remove just gum, is more likely to grow back. But you can always try that first. Thanks for the comment!
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld Okay thanks for the wonderful feedback. I think I'll try just removing the gum first and see how that turns out. MAJOR thumbs up to you my friend. 👍👍
I currently have two wisdom teeth growing in (the bottom two) and both have had growing pains in the past, some swelling and discomfort but It always passed in a few days, now, it’s only day 3 of the pains but it’s worse than usual. It is definitely a gum issue and not a tooth one, because I have that gum flap over one of the crowns, and it’s red and swelling. The pain is particularly worse because it hurts to swallow (my tongue pushes against the gums), smile, talk sometimes, yawn, eat, open my mouth etc. and I have tried pain killers, I’ve packs, gently brushing the area and putting some tissues at the area to prevent me from biting on the gums, but it all hurts the same amount as it did before all of that. (Not sure if this matters but my wisdom teeth according to my dentist are growing in relatively straight.) idk what to do, and if I should be worried about it.
Sir help me please it’s my right bottom back wisdom tooth it’s been hurting for 4 days now and I can see little pice of the teeth coming out and it’s kinda dark not white. I have gum swelling and I just squeezed the gum and blood and maybe puss came out what do you think I have ?

@@DrPaulsDentalWorld also I do agree if u have free money for luxuries such as subscriptions and etc that money could quickly be saved up for teeth issues
Yeah I understand! Appreciate the honesty. It's good to hear that you're getting something sorted with the guy in Aspen. Good luck with it all!
Dr. Paul!!! THANK YOU for not telling me i'm about to die from a brain infection within 2hrs-7 days because I have an inflamed gum. lol ty so much for the tips!
Lol that's OK! Glad you enjoyed the video 🙌
Thank you so much Doctor. I am having so much pain right now. Your tips are helpful. May God bless you.
Glad to hear they have helped, good luck with it 🙌
i’m 16 and my wisdom teeth are growing, i’m in such big pain :( they’ve been hurting for a week, but i can only see a dentist in like 3 days. tysm for this video i really do appreciate it.
You're welcome, good luck with it!
im in the same situation except a dentist visit isnt going to be for a while and argh almost a quarter of my mouth is off limits for anything because of how much it hurts :(
Getting my wisdom teeth out in a few weeks and this has finally helped me get some relief in the interim. Thank you!
Good to hear! Good luck with the surgery. I'll post a video below that will help with managing pain afterwards!

Hey thanks alot for ur video I had severe swelling from past 2 days on my cheek I followed ur instructions for my my gum infection and I did try ice pack and brushing hardly under the gum I could see a food particle coming out from inside the gum I feel so relieved after removing... Tysm u saved me😀
I'm glad to hear thanks for letting me know!!
Thank you Doctor. Suffering for 3 days already... Affecting my ears as well
Good luck with it!
Thank you, this is alot more informative than other videos I've watched saying "pain killers or see a dentist"
You're welcome, I'm glad you liked it! Hopefully it helps 🙌
Well I may go but I always cried and something too, but they always kind sleep I don't know why but my mom helped me and I'm so appreciative of that door that you're send this video for me and other people thank you so much
You're welcome, good luck with it!
We are all in this together
Group hug
😍😍😍
Good tips! Thank you. Golden Seal helps, and I use essential "clove oil" saturated with a few drops of coconut oil on a cotton ball to place on the swelling. (Caution not to swallow the clove oil). I really appreciate the narrowing of the tooth brush tip. I'll start doing that today. Thanks again!
You're welcome, good luck with it!
thank you for this! Im 16 and have had gum pain on and off but this round of pain is really bad. my wisdom teeth are still growing so my gums are super swollen and it's been hard to sleep from the pain. Ive been takin acetaminophen and using ice and its done wonders! im trying to get an appointment with my dentist asap as well:)
Good luck with it!
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH🎉 . I WENT TO BRUSH THE TOOTH AREA AS YOU SUGGESTED AND IT WORKED. THE PAIN IS SO LIGHT I KEEP FORGETTING ABOUT IT. IT ALSO RELEASED PRESSURE AND IS GRAUDUALLY GETTING SMALLER. I FEEL MUCH BETTER NOW.😊
AWESOME TO HEAR!
Thank you so much dude. Finally someone who give explanations and what could be done to slove it...
You're welcome!
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld thanks again because of you i got know my main problem is gum not actually teeth. I was doing everything to cure teeth i should be doing something to cure gum..
@Editbysky08 I hope it gets better!

Best video out of the ones I’ve been browsing. Thank you for the info🙏🏽
Thank you for the comment!
I very rarely leave comments on any videos but you saved me! I was in so much pain and waiting for my dentist appointment. I feel so much better, thank you!!!
Great to hear and thank you for the comment!
Ive been in pain for weeks i have been to dentist twice ad two lots of anibiotics 3rd time i need them hes referring me to hospital for removal hopefully this week i get something for the pain its horrendous ive read some coments and ive brushed mouth wash into the gum and tooth released some pain thankyou
Good luck with it! Will be great once they're gone. This is a good video to watch about how to heal faster. There are things you can do beforehand so watch it soon czcams.com/video/y5fAn65qvQE/video.html
Thanks for the video! I'm currently experiencing a lot of head pressure and even ear popping due to my top wisdom teeth pushing. So far my gum feels fine. Just a lot of head pressure (typically in the back of my head and temples area) as well as muscle tension in my upper neck muscles and upper back/shoulders. Would you recommend these tips still for someone just experiencing pressure and muscles aches and not a lot of gum pain? Thank you!
Hey Victoria, good question. Probably not then.
You may find relief from pain medications like paracetamol (acetaminophen) and ibuprofen which is anti inflammatory. If it is from the wisdom teeth coming through and putting pressure, it may just be something that passes with time and pain relief in the meantime might help.
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld o
Hey! I’m experiencing the same thing you did where there’s constant head pressure on the back and sides of my head for days with the muscles pains as well and I’ve noticed my wisdom teeth are coming in but no gums pain. Did you ever figure out if your wisdom teeth were the actual source of ur pain? Thank you!
The salt water and molding stuff helps wonders. Thank you for more tips
You're welcome 🙌🙌
I wouldn’t wish this pain on my worst enemy.
Sorry to hear! Hopefully it improves with these tips, or getting them removed!
Watching this while I cant sleep because of the pain.
Must be my gums. Will try some medication and brushing.
I hope it helps! 🙌
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld It helped a lot, thanks! The pain became much less.
I went to the dentist the next day and they cleaned and cut away gum around my wisdom tooth. It seems all better now.
great! it'll likely grow back, but hopefully it helps long term!
Doc, I've been suffering from severe pain for almost a year now because of my wisdom teeth growing both left and right side, the left side wisdom tooth is the one causing unbearable pain, it doesn't have any holes in it, or gum infection, it just hurts so much because it's pushing the tooth before it and the pain is I swear unbearable 😭. What should I do, taking ibuprofen eases the pain but after I eat it'll come back😭
Sounds like it needs to be removed!
suffering for six weeks pain killers works for five minutes nothing works can even touch the tooth it also makes the other teeths pain
I hope the tips on this video work!!
Try oil pulling, a teaspoon of coconut oil, swish around with saliva in your mouth for 5 minutes, spit it outside and not in the basin because it's oil...Rinse out with water.
You can do this as many times as you want, I recommend twice works well.... use this twice a day. Bentonite clay is good for brushing your teeth, it doesn't taste good but it works..also Baking soda toothpaste is great...these are all natural products and can help you until you see a dentist.
Oil pulling not super effective for wisdom tooth pain. You also need to do 20mins per day to have positive effects on the gum health
Hi doc,
I have had that pain for more than 2 years, it usually comes after a period of time with sharp pain. But for the last three weeks the pain is getting worser which has lead to loss of weight.
I have tried this procedure but my pain it's still the same.
I visited the dentist yesterday and she gave me aceclofenac which am still in pain.
My jaw is swollen, it has become hard to talk, swallowing the food is a big problem.
Hope to get the reply soon
Thank you
Hi there. If you are looking for suggestions, everything is in the video. If the tips don't work, you need to tooth removed
Had the gum pain one a couple of weeks ago, just had it removed last Wednesday along with a top wisdom tooth which the oral surgeon said that would cause pain eventually. Didn't think the actual pain from the infected gum + impacted tooth would hurt less than the recovery + surgery lol. Wish I found this video sooner tho in the lead up to last week though!
Oof
Glad to hear it went well! You're right, it's often not as bad as people expect!
Bless you sir for all the work you do. Many thanks, much love.
You're welcome, and thank you!
I have gum pain with the swelling and inflammation. But I also notice a white substance on the gum around my wisdom tooth. What could it be?
Hard to say without seeing it but sometimes when there is inflammation there can be white gum tissue as well. Likely nothing to worry about
My wisdom tooth pain was subsiding and then my birthday came, and a few beers and some cake later I'm back to square one with the pain! my fault lol. Good thing I got some hydrogen peroxide mouth wash lying around lol.
I hope it gets better!
I forgot about the ice pack. tysm for all the info on it and how to brush under the teeth.
You're welcome, I hope it helps!
I have to have top and bottom extracted on the same side and I’m so miserable I’ve tried everrythiiinngg! My wisdom teeth are impacted 🤦🏽♀️
At least once they are out you won't have to worry about it again
Thank you so much for educating us this really means alot me god bless you for caring for sharing this information
You're welcome!
Just got my wisdom teeth ...cant wait for my enlightenment now.

Was totally worth it.

Thank you , thank you , thank you so much !!! I am going through the wisdom tooth pain and I have my braces too . Thank you for this video ❤️❤️❤️❤️
You're welcome! Glad to hear 🙌
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld The tooth is just growing and I can already feel the part of the tooth a little bit . My only fear is since I have my braces on so will this wisdom tooth would effect the on going braces treatment ?
Ah OK. Sounds like it is on its way up. It won't affect your braces, but your orthodontist might suggest removing it afterwards to avoid any potential gum issues etc
Yeah exactly ! It's on it's way up . I came to know that my wisdom tooth has started coming after I got my braces , after like some 6th or 7th month of tightening .
Thank you for guiding 😃
👌👌
Thank you
You're welcome!
It's really painful 💔 Thank you for your help.
You're welcome, I hope it gets better!
Hi Doc, I just watched this video and I got informed, I’m having a hard pain on my ending gum down my teeth’s lane…it’s peeled and swollen 😭
I hope the tips in this video help!
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld Yes I bought the Ibuprofen and used it with paracetamol this morning
Ok thanks for your helpful video. Salt water I will try. Ice, ibuprofen & paracetamol.
Good luck with it! Don't forget to keep it very clean
The mouthwash rinse really helped.
Thank you for the video my friend!
Great to hear, you're welcome!
Buy some cloves. Put two cloves in your mouth near toothache leave it there. If that doesnt ease pain try this .. Another option make a paste w/clove powder and olive oil put paste near ur toothache and leave it there. Repeat when necessary. Also I wrap my head tightly to also ease the pain. Still go to the dentist to get tooth removed when you have time.
i’ve been doing all of this and it goes for 5 mins and comes back but these DO help and i’m seeing the dentist tomorrow 😊
Good luck with it Chanelle!
Wonderful and detailed explanation . Thanks this as been really helpful bin understanding and treating the problem.
Great to hear 😁
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld 💕👍
Is sore throat a symptom for a bad wisdom tooth? Along with jaw and ear pain?
Yes definitely. The pain for sure radiates!
Place a cube of ice or break it with the respective tooth if is possible.. it will provide instant relief from pain..believe me
Interesting technique to break with the sore tooth!
It does
You are the best Dr god bless you please post more videos they are very effective!!
Thank you for the comment
Thanks Dr. Ibuprofen 200 reduced the swelling and my pain less than a min..
Great to hear 🙌🙌

You're welcome 👍👍
I’m on day 3 and the pain just gets worse and worse. I have no hole in my tooth, but the gum is visibly swolen, bleeding, and dead (white) in some areas touching my tooth. this is my lower left tooth.
Sorry to hear I hope the tips help!
I've been in ICU from a motorbike accident...
6 broken ribs, punctured lung, herniated belly button, broken clavicle, broken knee and road rash....
A walk in the park compared to the wisdom tooth pain I've experienced... 😅

been suffering for 4 days now. My jaw locked can't even open my mouth and eat because of the swelling it's so painfull. It feels like someone's choking you.

Here at midnight , it's so painful 😭😭😭, thanks for the info
How welcome, good luck with it!
I can relate rn it’s growing 🥺
I have a tooth decay and I ate food and now my tooth is in pain and has been in pain for so long I’m gonna try this out hopefully it works thank u
Good luck, I hope it helps!
My tooth pain is extremely weird I’ve tried most of your recommendations nothing seems to work. It’s only when I drink coffee I get immediate relief my wisdom tooth pain goes away for hours but comes back again I try other things nothing drink black coffee again it’s gone 😯😯😯😯
You potentially have decay inside of it, so if you do, my suggestion of seeing the dentist will be the only one that will help.
Try mastermedi Zinc Oxide Eugenol Cement Dental Care Kit Glue For Crowns & Bridges Filling to fill teeth. It's a good kit, and the fillings last a really long time. Nothing like what you'd buy over the counter.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Hi Dr.Paul. I kinda have a probem. Since I was 15 whenever I have a tooth infection the swelling doesn’t go down. I mean at all. So since 15 my right cheek under eye was bigger. And now one day My left cheek got swollen and I did a xRay. My dentist said that I have a wisdom teeth but it’s still early to get out. But she says that my cheek’s not swollen. The swelling was actually the reason that got me to the doctor. I never understand why don’t my swelling go down. I can’t find anything in google. Dentist doesn’t believe me but I have a very asymetric face. Please help me!
Hi Mona, that's an interesting one. Are you in pain from it?
Maybe it is worth getting a second opinion..
There’s only one solution for quick result. Get yourself a nice water flosser which will shoot water with pressure underneath your swollen gums. And boom job done. Your swollen gums pain will disappear. Use either warm salt water or mouthwash.
Water flosser is a great idea
this was so helpful! thank you for the video
You're welcome!
Well done. Appreciate you got right to the point and not talking about your dog and everything else like some of the videos do thanks.❤
Haha thank you for the comment!
Thank you for the awesome tips, I’m going to try some of these tomorrow
Thanks Rob!
Best video...i learnt alot..going to call dentist tomorrow for appointment..
Thanks brother...
You're welcome I'm glad you liked it 🙌
My wisdom tooth has half emerged and other half is behind the gum it’s not titled or angled so I’m guessing it will just grow out on itself?? It does cause a lot of pain randomly so I’m gonna use these things thnx!
Hopefully it will grow out by itself! And hopefully you get some relief from these things 👍
How is your tooth now? For mine there's only a small part covered by gum but it is causing a lot of pain randomly. Like sudden sharp pains. Previously my tooth managed to push through a gum flap but now it is taking so long
@@yashny I’m pretty sure it just stuck there lol but it doesn’t hurt and my dentist wanted me to take the tissues off but I had a wedding to attend to next day so.. but the pain goes :)
Watching this with a Clove sitting in my mouth so anything and I mean anything HAS to be better
I hope it got better!
Thank you so much it really helped in the time of pain. Seems I have started gaining wisdom🤓.
Haha nice pun! And good to hear it has helped 👌👌
I'm currently in tooth pain hell! I have been trying to work the system for 3 yrs. I am in massive pain but require a hospital dentist and there are so few of them that the waitlists are years long. I was last told 4-6 years. By then I would be dead! I am only in this situation because dentists all turned me away due to allergies to materials, medication, dysphagia, arrhythmias, blood pressure, etc. My quality of life is horrible. I'm on my 3rd round of antibiotics in about 6 months. I've needed root canals, had broken, exposed nerve teeth, old fillings, issues from negligent dental work, wisdom teeth pushing on my exposed, broken, rotting teeth and causing excruciating pain in my jaw, ear, gland, neck, teeth, gums, and head. There are only a handful of hospital dentists. The world needs more for special needs/ people with disabilities, etc. We need a better healthcare system that supports and includes dental health including crowns and things needed to keep teeth and the jaw healthy. My jaw is misaligned, my cheeks are caving and I am STILL looking for help. The doctors, dentists, and insurance bounce it back and forth to you. If anyone is in the dental field, social work, medical world or anything that can help with these things it would really be appreciated especially at a state/county /medicaid/medicare/medical level. Thank you for your video. I'm off to try the peroxide!
Sorry to hear about your situation, it doesn't sound good at all! Good luck with the wisdom tooth pain
Thank you! I have the gum issue with my wisdom tooth :,(
I bought those little brushes you use for braces! It works well. I’m going to try the stuff you recommended because now the swelling is getting in the way of my speaking and eating from time to time. I have a dentist appointment to ask about getting it removed soon though!
Sounds good, fingers crossed the tips help you!
You are a genius Doctor, really your informations are more helpful for me.
I have one doubt that I'm suffering from ear pain in night following with the wisdom'S tooth nearby gum. Suggest me one good solution other than extraction
Solutions other than extraction
- keep the gum very clean and do the tips in this video
- coronectomy
- distal Wedge procedure
Thank you for this video. I’m having a lot of gum pain from my wisdom tooth growing in. Will the inflammation go down eventually trying these tips?
In severe cases, it won't go down all the way. Some cases need to be thoroughly cleaned by a dentist under local anaesthetic. But, they should help. If they don't, it might be worth visiting a dentist
My wisdom tooth has flared up since a caught a cold will try numbing gel on it using mouthwash and ibuprofen
Good luck with it!
Im poor, cant work, and have no family. I don't know what to do but the pain in my entire top bottom teeth and entire right sidw of head ia killing me
Sorry to hear! Hopefully these tips help 😞
first Dr who has made some sense of the excruciating pain I am experiencing. defied pain killers and the hydrogen peroxide wash
Any luck with the pain? Hopefully some of the tips help!
On to 5th day from having inpacted wisdom tooth out. Never know pain like it I've had 4 stitches and I could seriously cry. I'm absolutely fed up with the pain I just want it to go. 8ve just got some corsodyl and ibuprofen and paracetamol. Hopefully some relief. The actual area doesn't look to bad but I'm still swollen.
Sorry to say it but the pain can be bad for up to two weeks afterwards.
It normally gets better after the first week though..
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld don't be sorry lol. Yep I wasn't expecting it to be that bad it's actually a lot better but from what the surgeon said some people heal better than others. Finally my stitches have desolved. Definitely first week is the worse.
Good to hear it's improved a lot 👍👍
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld ive only just realised the stitches were from when they cut the gum. I thought it was the tooth they stitched. Would explain why I still have a hole in my gum where my wisdom tooth was. Lol. And also explained I may have had dry socket as I'm sure sure my clot vanished which would explain the horrendous pain I suffered. Now I need wait for my hole to somehow heal.
Yeah whenever the gum is cut we try and switch it back together.
Could have possibly been dry socket, the pain from that normally starts on day 2-5 and lasts for a week or so.
Healing (the hole filling) will happen, but it will be slow. 3 months or so
I'm 37yo and my jaw is killing me I have never experienced any teeth problem before and this pain is ridiculous
Sorry to hear - I hope the tips help!
Hey Dr my wisdom tooth started coming in about 4 years ago and every year it's gets really painful especially in winter or when theres a change of season, I use medicine such as paracetamol and ibuprofen and even clove oil but none seem to give a long lasting effect, I once had a fun infection because of it last but I managed to fix at the dentist but now the pain and swelling keeps coming back what do you recommend? Will the extraction be difficult since I'm over 25?
Hmm, sounds like you should have it removed.
In terms of difficulty/pain/healing with the extraction, age is a factor, but it doesn't change things too much. Under 25, the bone is a little softer so the teeth can come out easier, but each tooth and situation is different. If the tooth is out of the gum a little, that can make it a little easier than ones that are under the gum.
I have Nuroprogen and it gives me that pain relief for atleast two hours. If you buy it, I recommend having it before big activities like going places and before you sleep.
Do you mean nurofen?
My wisdom teeth is growing in instalment basis 🙄🙄....am so pissed off with this stupid pain .....the pain is at another level....what do i do? Dental check up is soooooooooooooo expensive here in Australia......hellllpppppp😟😟
Did you watch the video and follow the tips?
Hi came across your video. My situation is that the gum over the tooth has been burned off a long time ago and I have an old filling so I can’t see any holes also the tooth is loose. I’ll try one of your remedies and hopefully it helps with the pain
Good luck with it!
Sometimes, even if the gum is burnt off, it can grow back.
If the tooth is loose that doesn't sound like a good thing tbh
Hi, Dr. Paul. Currently, my wisdom teeth are popping in, but I only see a little bit of white/teeth back there. Is it normal if only one side hurts? As far as I know, I only have two wisdom teeth. But, only my top right one hurts. Should I be concerned about this or no? I heard that impaction can happen. I been drinking ice water to maybe help soothe the gum in between using an ice pack.
Hi there. Sounds pretty normal tbh. I have lots of patients that don't have pain on both sides, even though they look the same. So whatever works for you for pain relief. Impaction can happen, yes. It's only possible to know this with some dental xrays
It’s moments like these where you just wish you were completely healthy how do little things cause so much pain
Yep, we definitely take being healthy for granted when everything is going well!
I hope the tips help
What a beautiful man. Thank you for the tips doctor🥴 Wisdom tooth pain is no joke >,< Appreciate how you explained everything. I always wondered why people brushed their teeth after each meal :o They had the right idea I'm gonna start doing that. THANK GOD I was able to schedule an appointment to see my dentist today. Anyhow I hope you fellow wisdom tooth victims find relief soon! Have a great day/ hang in there :)
You're welcome, hopefully you get some relief from your pain and then get rid of the damn things 🤣
Woke up this morning and my wisdom tooth is hurting so bad. I'm hypersalivating. The pain is unbearable and it hurts to talk. I didn't hear you mention anything about over salivating, should I be concerned?
I can't explain that one. Not something to be worried about though
Very informative. Thanks Doc.
I've been advised to have my wisdom tooth removed. Is that advisable to just have a permanent filling done instead of the tooth completely extracted?
I'm just not mentally prepared for a tooth extraction procedure lol 😅😆
You're welcome!
Were you told to have it removed because of decay or because of the gum?
If it is because of decay, then you can have a filling done, but it won't last forever and will need to be replaced.
Typically we remove the tooth, so you don't have to worry about it ever again. Unless, you are using the tooth for chewing and it is a 'functional' tooth.
So the decision is up to you 😁
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld haha 😅
I was told to have it removed because of a deep cavity. I try and avoid biting on my left side but was wondering if it's still fine to just manage with a filling...
If it is a deep cavity on a wisdom tooth, it is probably going to be very difficult for them to fix, and it will cause you problems in a few years and you will have to have it removed then. You may as well take it out now tbh.
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld noted, thanks Doc
You're welcome
Dr Paul you are my hero
Haha love it! You're welcome 🙌🙌
I brushed my teeth for 2 mins strate. Than brushed my teeth with ajax lemon soap. (Yes it tasted horrible) and than ambosol. I need a dentist bad I kept putting it off. I drink so much gaterade my right wisdom tooth is half gone from sugar. It's all black and decayed. I didn't feel any pain than 10 months ago I pain but went away and I dodged the dentist all this time now it's like an agonizing constant ache. Just did my remedy (temporary) and now looking up what I should do about getting it extracted
Peace guys thanks for everyones methods and inputs I'm reading these on here and the video ofc
Good luck with it!
My top right wisdom tooth shattered over a year ago and I have lived in pain and constant head spins for almost 7 months now everyday, all day long worst thing ever guys take care of your teeth trust me!! Not worth the 2 minutes you would lose out of your day brushing!
Sorry to hear! I hope you get some resolution soon 🙌
Hello.am 36 my wisdom tooth growing am in pain,fever too.😢thank you will try.
Good luck with it!
Hey Doc Paul. Thank you for this helpful video. I need your sound advice please. 2 weeks ago, I started having shooting pain from my wisdom tooth and so I went to the dentist and x-rays showed that my wisdom tooth is healthy, no cavities and filling is intact. Dentist can not figure out where the sensitivity is triggered from. And another thing, my tooth has somehow moved lowed which causes friction with the tooth below it, I talk with a lil lisp now. Please help. I do not want to extract the healthy tooth but I am having shooting pain every now and then and what bothers me the most is my lisp.
Hi Nikki, I'm glad you liked the video.
In regards to the pain, what triggers the pain? Is it getting any worse, better, or the same?
Are you sure it is from the wisdom tooth?
Are you saying the upper or the lower wisdom tooth moved lower?
It is hard to make suggestions without seeing you in person.
Thanks for the most detailed explanation. It's very much appreciated. Is it possible to have the overlapping gum surgically removed by the way? I would rather have THAT done now that the pain has subsided.
You can. There's two ways - one is to remove just the gum, and the other is to remove gum and bone. The one where you remove just gum, is more likely to grow back. But you can always try that first.
Thanks for the comment!
@@DrPaulsDentalWorld Okay thanks for the wonderful feedback. I think I'll try just removing the gum first and see how that turns out. MAJOR thumbs up to you my friend. 👍👍
Thank you and you're welcome!
When I talk, eat,and open my mouth I feel pain
Hopefully these tips help!
I was in dire need of this video today
I hope it helped!
I currently have two wisdom teeth growing in (the bottom two) and both have had growing pains in the past, some swelling and discomfort but It always passed in a few days, now, it’s only day 3 of the pains but it’s worse than usual. It is definitely a gum issue and not a tooth one, because I have that gum flap over one of the crowns, and it’s red and swelling. The pain is particularly worse because it hurts to swallow (my tongue pushes against the gums), smile, talk sometimes, yawn, eat, open my mouth etc. and I have tried pain killers, I’ve packs, gently brushing the area and putting some tissues at the area to prevent me from biting on the gums, but it all hurts the same amount as it did before all of that. (Not sure if this matters but my wisdom teeth according to my dentist are growing in relatively straight.) idk what to do, and if I should be worried about it.
Have you tried all the steps in the video? Numbing gel? Peroxide Mouthrinse?
You might need to have them removed
Sir help me please it’s my right bottom back wisdom tooth it’s been hurting for 4 days now and I can see little pice of the teeth coming out and it’s kinda dark not white. I have gum swelling and I just squeezed the gum and blood and maybe puss came out what do you think I have ?
Inflammation/infection of your the gum. Follow the steps in the video, or see a dentist
can I just hydrogen peroxide to clean my mouth? I have a bottle of that
Yeah peroxide works well. Rinse with that a couple of times per day, or dip your toothbrush in it and brush along the gum there.
I know I’m late but just by this numbing medicine called anbesol what it does is numb that part of the mouth that is irritating
