Is my Gum coming off ? ?!


Question: Is my Gum coming off .? .?
After I brushed my teeth this morning on one of my top molars the gum on the outside of my tooth looked disconnected from my teeth and flappy. It was also swollen and hurt a little. By the end of the day the swelling and pain was gone and it no longer flaps. But why did that happen .? Am I brushing too hard .?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Your gum is not coming off, sweetie, don't worry. You are experiencing a gum break off, and is easily fixed by caring for the gum carefully. The detached part will attach itself back.
If it doesn't clear up in five days, contact your local dentist and get the suggestions from him/her.
