[|Human|] I think i have a infected tooth it just started to chip away little by little but now i can start to taste puss in my mouth. I want to do a coconut oil pull to see if that remedy works. How dangerous s it to be tasting this puss and possibly swallowing it at times ? and what can i do to prevent it and will the oil pull work?
[|AI|]  Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . As per your complaint it seems that infection has reached below the root tips of the infected tooth leading to Dental Abscess formation. Swallowing excess of pus can at times cause infection in stomach as well as throat. Oil pull can cause temporary relief but for permanent resolution consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and an x-ray has to be done. In case if tooth can be saved then Root Canal treatment of tooth followed by antibiotics and painkillers can help. In case of gross decay extraction can be advised. Hope this helps. Regards.
