You do need to consult with your orthodontist... although I don't know why someone has recommended penicillin. That's an antibiotic, and won't help you unless you have an infection. An over the counter painkiller containing paracetamol may provide temporary relief until you can see a professional, or if your gums are inflamed try one containing aspirin. You could also try pain relieving gel... the kind used for babies when they are teething, and try rinsing your mouth out occasionally with very mild salt water.Health Question & Answer
