[|Human|] it appears to be that I have an abcessed tooth.  I got a bump on my gum 4 months ago and had pain.  I then took antibiotics to kill the infection and the little sac on my gum never went away. now 4 months later, puss is coming out when I push it.  I have been gargling with salt and water.  and going to see a dentist tommorrow.  Will I lose my tooth?  because I waited so long?
[|AI|]  Hi. Tell me about your pain... is your pain continuous .is there any hole or cavity on your tooth. In such case you can save your tooth by doing root canal treatment .BT if no part of tooth is left and your whole tooth structure is lost that in such case you have to remove it. Bt not to worry there are any option for tooth replacement like implants, crown, bridges etc.so DNT worry have root canal treatment and save it .......
