Popcorn stuck in your gums?
Hello,
A popcorn shell has become embedded in the gums of my two lower molars. I've brushed my teeth, flossed, tried to get it out with my fingernail, and used mouthwash.
It's already 11 p.m. and I don't know what to do now. Just go to sleep and hope it goes away overnight.
Can anyone possibly help me?
Thanks for your help in advance!!
Wait till Monday and go to your dentist. This is nothing bad and can wait until the weekend. He can remove it and maybe give you tips on how to remove it yourself the next time.
Thank you for your answer. Do you have any experience with this?
Go to sleep. Tomorrow you can go to the emergency counter. Or Monday to yours. This is not so dramatic
I have a gum surgery on Monday anyway. Maybe it’s gone by then or he can remove it. Thank you for your answer!
Yes then I would wait until Monday if you weren’t in severe pain
