[|Human|] I am a 60 year old women with both wisdom teeth on my left side. A year ago I had the molar #15 removed due to a cracked crown and every since my cheek and tongue next to that upper left wisdom tooth has been hurting. I believe that my wisdom tooth now rubs on both my check (the gland that is in my cheek and on my tongue as well). I have went to my dentist and he has sanded some of the edges of my wisdom tooth but that has not helped.  I have on several occasions asked about having both of my wisdom teeth(which have fillings in them) on the left side extracted but they try to discourage this.  Please advise.Julie
[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for the query. I have gone through your query and can understand your concern. As per your complaint there is a possibility that there is cheek bite due to wisdom tooth that is a commonly seen occurrence leading to pain in cheek and tongue due to injury. You might be getting discouraged for extraction due to age related factors and having any medical history. I would suggest you to consult an Oral Surgeon and get evaluated . As of now you can apply a numbing gel over painful area. Do cold water rinses and take Ibuprofen for relieving pain and inflammation. In case if wisdom tooth is ruled out as the cause of the pain and discomfort the surgeon can plan out extraction under proper precautions and aseptic conditions. Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards. Chat Doctor.
