Question : I wasn't really taking care of my teeth until recently. all of my wisdom teeth were bad, so I finally went to dentist and got a treatment. around this time, I started feeling like my teeth were moving, but they assured me that I won't be losing my teeth anytime soon. so it's been months since I finished treatment, but time to time, I feel my teeth moving. also sometimes, I feel like I am licking what feels like a wound? like I burn inside mouth after eating pizza or something. so I am kind of worried that my gum and everything inside my mouse is somehow deteriorating. for some reason, when I eat yogurt, it feels more obvious my teeth moving. my jaw seems to get muscle sored. I have been brushing, flossing everyday since the treatment.
