My gums inbetween my lower teeth are rising/big...Whats hapening?
ur dyin bud....not really


u probably have an infection ittl go away in a few days
Reply:You may have a small pocket of infection. Let me guess. You don't floss every day, right?





Brush carefully but gently, twice a day minimum, and start flossing, also carefully and gently, once a day. Most swollen gum issues will self-resolve in 3-4 days if you do this.
Reply:You probably got something jammed down into the gums so now there is inflammation. Or, you have an infection begining in the gum tissue. Or...you are on a medication that causes overgrowth of gum tissue.





First thing to try is to brush your gums gently, floss, rinse forcefully, and see if whatever might have been stuck there comes out. If you have a Water-Pik (a gadget where a warm jet of forceful water sprays at the gums), you can try that.





If it's medication (meds like dilantin can cause gingival hyperplasia), then you need to be more diligent when you brush. Brush your teeth, and massage your gums for several minutes to reduce the overgrowth.
