my wisdom teeth are all through, I was supposed to have them removed a while ago but appt was cancelled and I never got another one through. anyway, one (upper) is impacted toward the inside if my mouth, there is a flap of skin over the one below it, which is being irritated by the top one. still with me?
for the last week I have been in proper agony, there feels like a lump inside my mouth (between the two teeth, which are both in the crease of my jaw) and i cant open my mouth wide, eat, or drink. Ive slept or eaten a meal for a week. i saw an emergency dentist on weds, who just cleaned the area and sent me on my way, saying that it would feel better in 24-48hrs. well, no. its actually worse, and im in tears with the pain.
is it worth calling nhs direct?
