What could be wrong with my teeth?
it could be a combination of or any of brushing your teeth too hard, gum shrinkage and gum disease.





When your gum has shrunk back and your roots are exposed this can cause sensitivity when brushing.





Your gums can shrink back from 1. brushing too hard causes damage to your gums 2. Not brushing them enough causes the gums to become infected and shrink back(called gum disease - also known as periodontal disease or pyorea). 3. a filling below the gum can lead to your gums to shrinking away from the filling.





Brushing very hard with a hard tooth brush can also wear the enamel layer on your tooth after a while, exposing the next layer of tooth called dentine. This can make your teeth sensitive to cold and to brushing.





A red gum may be because you realy scraped your gum very hard with something, or you have gum disease which is caused by plaque(made of bacteria) growing under your gums. Your gums don't like bacteria much and become red swollen and bleed very easily when you brush them.
Reply:abscessed tooth maybe...it would be easier to know from a pic
Reply:It might be Piorea, which is a gum disease! Can you suck up and spit blood? If so, you need to get some White Oak Bark from a Health Food Store and brush your teeth with this for 3 or 4 weeks and everything will be good as new! Good luck!
Reply:It sounds like you have Periodontal Disease. If this is what it is than it is serious because, not only could it cause you to lose your teeth, but the infected gums and teeth would be pouring poison into your system. This could cause organ failure if it gets bad enough.


It's a good thing you have a dental appointment coming up. Be sure to go to your dentist at the appointed time!!!!!!
Reply:This could be a number of things. Your tooth could be abcessed. It could also be a type of Periodontal Disease. If you don't feel you can wait that long to get into the dentist, you could also go to your regular doctor. He might be able to talk you through any concerns you have. He might even put you on an antibiodic. If there is any infection, that will help clear it up.
