Re: upper gums hurt!!!!!!

Make an appotment with your dentist so they can make sure you don't

have perodontis and give advice on flossing. Sometimes it just takes

a bit for the gums to toughen up and flossing really does help that

so try floowing every night for a couple weeks and see if that makes

progress. If you just do it at random it won't help the problem at

all. You can also use ora-jel which will numb your gumbs very nicley.

I don't just do it at a random. I floss every morning and every

night. But if it is some kind of gum disease wouldn't my gums bleed?

ANd I just think it is a little odd that my bottom don't hurt, only

my upper. I've been flossing every morning and night for about 6

months now. I neglected flossing my teeth when I had braces and I

got them off 6 months ago so ever since then I've been flossing.

So you don't think it has anything to do with my jaw surgery.

Because I mean they did cut all along my upper gums and they were

numb for a while.
