Suggest Treatment For Tooth Infectoon
Hello
My tooth is oozing pus some days as well as some days hurts and I feel it loose like it is lower than normal when I bite. I went to a dentist but he told me that my x ray is clear. He gave antibiotics for 5 days (amoxicillin 250) but it started again.

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have pus formation in your tooth dont worry it is due to periodontal problem there can be formation of periodontal abscess.
Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day
Do chlorhexidine mouthwash twice daily for one week.
Consult dentist and go for oral prophylaxis.
Hope this will help you.
