I have a pimple on my gums by second molar tooth?

first of all it hurts when i eat, or touch it with my toungue :( is this some kind of infection ? help i had a dental procedure like few months ago and the tooth broke i had fillings. i think the nerve is dead inside but ..i am not sure i cant remember if it was for the second molar tooth :( help|||Typically if you have a pimple about the tooth and it hurts when you eat it is because the nerve in the tooth is dead. The pimple is an abscess that is draining. The tooth will need a root canal if it can be saved. See your dentist for an evaluation to be sure. The dentist can prescribe you some antibiotics for the infection.|||That sounds more like an abscess than a pimple. Call your dentist and explain your situation. Most likely you%26#039;ll need to go back to the dentist.





I get canker sores on my lower lip and like to use Tea Tree Oil. It%26#039;s a natural antiseptic and anti-fungal that you get from a health food store. If you have an abscess it won%26#039;t clear it up but it might help a little with the pain until you get back into the dentist.
