What’s this on my sons gum? Pics

[Chugger]

When he said he could feel something sore and bubbly on his gum, I expected to see a gumboil/abscess. But instead it was 2 almost pimple-like blobs, quite close to each other. Can’t see any pus
What do we think

Can you post a photo of the adjacent tooth OP?

Think he needs to see a dentist

Yes it looks like an abscess needs a dentist asap

I had this once I used to enjoy popping it turned out to be an abscess on the root and I had to have the tooth extracted.

We’re on holiday at the moment. Not home until next Sunday.
I’ll keep an eye on it but it doesn’t seem to be bothering him too much...

I had this on a back tooth when I was a teenager quite frequently. Like someone else previously said, I enjoyed popping it 🤦🏽‍♀️ I eventually had to have root treatment on the tooth, then it got extracted ☹️

Abscess but it's trying to drain so shouldn't cause much pain. Not sure how old he is but hot salt water gargling can help if old enough to stomach it!

You need to see a dentist, he’s got an abscess. That pimple thing is the puss trying to get out.

It's an abscess on his tooth. Don't pop it. Let it drain itself. Now it's come to the surface hopefully it'll pop soon.

I used to pop it with a cotton bud. I had it for months, it wasn't painful.
You should probably as soon as possible though

Is it a baby tooth?

Yes -it's a baby tooth.
Are you able to post a photo of the tooth OP?

He’s asleep now. I’m not sure if it’s a baby tooth, I’ve lost count! I’m presuming it is though. He’s 7.
Well, it did pop earlier

Is he in pain? My middle child has just had a tooth yanked out due to an abcess

No he’s not in pain. Hope your DC is ok
