Gums

[[th...]]

Anyone have issues with painful irritated gums? I wonder if it's wd or something really wrong with my teeth! I have good hygiene so not sure why there would all of a sudden be an issue. But they are red and painful in areas 

 

Anyone have this...or experience this?

Yes. Sometimes peeling mouth skin too. Teeth ache at times. Comes and goes. One of those migrating symptoms. Weird. And annoying.

Benzo and gum problems are a symptom G. Gabapentin does the same thing. Teeth probs also...cavities etc.

Ditto. Gums feel sore, tingling/burning sensation. Some minor skin peeling inside bottom lip as well.

Do you go in to the dentist or wait it out? Does it get better on it's own? Or is this something I need to have checked? If it just goes away like everything else I ll wait.

Have bleeding gums on and off.

I have my teeth cleaned every 3-4 months to make sure nothing is wrong.

Deeper pockets since benzo Wd.

So I keep an eye out and try to be proactive and prevent any trouble.

But my gums are really sensitive , often red and sometimes bleeding.

 

I also grind my teeth a lot. They hurt pretty bad sometimes.

 

You might want to do a check up at a periodontist if you're worried. But I read this often here.

Teeth trouble, gum problems.

Didn't run to dentist! Get my teeth cleaned twice yearly and brush 3x/daily. It's gotten to the point where everything negative with my body is benzo related as far as I'm concerned  Otherwise, I'd be running weekly to numerous specialist appointments for all these whacked out delightful symptoms sprouting up weekly

Exactly! Haven't seen a doc of any kind since I began tapering. Everything for me is benzo related  I am swishing with salt water now to see if that helps. Good lord what else could happen!! Jeesh!!

I recently had a root canal job done. I never had one in the past. Now, after reading this post, I have to wonder whether it's w/d related or not. I sure don't want a 2nd one.

Salt water...good idea, never though to try that but it's now in my arsenal bag.  And yes Grinch, my oral problems have improved although I did show my dentist and he said NOT TO WORRY......story of my life, why have I never thought of that
