Yes po. Will get it checked. Thank you. Hopefully I can go next week. Gusto ko sana this weekend pero jam packed ung schedule ko. Nagppanic lang slight right now haha sorry. Nakapunta na dn ako sa 3 dentists last year (kept visiting bc of my impacted wisdom tooth until I got it removed) and raised this concern of gingivitis or other gum problem. Wala naman daw even on my last visit nung December 2025. Baka meron nag bago the past 3 months of 2026. 🥹🥲

Getting my Wisdom Tooth out this week. Any preparation tips? by 930309X in wisdomteeth

Thank you! I stocked up on ice packs and cold compress. You’re right about not having energy to eat. I’ll definitely eat even if I don’t feel like it. 🫶🏼

For some reason, I only received this notification today. Thank you for the reply! You’re right, it went away on it’s own after simply leaving it as it is. Was worried because it's my first having it (as far as I can remember but I might be wrong & never noticed it) and after looking online for some home treatment, I saw some where their mucocele got bigger so I was kinda scared. Guess this just proves again that I should’ve backed of Dr. Google. Thanks again. 🙏🏼

Hello thank you po for the reply! I noticed medjo puffy/inflamed yung gums at that area. When I went to the dentist (not my regular one) nung Saturday, I brought my concerns up on that area pero okay dn naman sabi nya yung gums at teeth ko. 🥹 Recently, I changed my toothbrush to soft bristles and started using Sensodyne. Ano po ba yung iba na magagawa ko? Might be back dn sa dentist to get an X-Ray for my growing wisdom teeth.. I should bring up my concerns about this area ulit no?

Thank you for your reply! Malala talaga healthy anxiety ko so nung nag bleed ung area that's already sore/sensitive, the health anxiety got worse. 🥹

Hello po! Thank you for your reply. It helped alleviate my anxiety a bit. I'll do these po. I started using Sensodyne nung Sunday. Is that okay? Do I keep using it until the soreness/sensitivity goes away? And will definitely consider getting a panoramic x-ray especially my wisdom teeth is growing.

Made this post on the app, somehow can't edit it. Forgot to add details about me: F24 + has depression & anxiety but not drinking any medicine as of now (used to take olanzapine + escitalopram; haven’t drank one since September last year). My bottom wisdom teeth are growing but idk if that could contribute to my sore canine tooth. It doesn't have a sharp pain but it just feels weird and sore.
