What should I do if I have a transparent bubble on my gums?
The first disease is chronic apical periodontitis, which can cause the gum on the buccal and lingual sides of the affected tooth to appear with a small fistula bubble. This bubble can only disappear through root canal treatment of the tooth.
The second disease is periodontitis, which causes redness and swelling of the gums and the formation of periodontal pockets with pus overflow, resulting in small bubbles appearing on the corresponding gums. In this case, the gum bubble disappears through comprehensive treatment of periodontal disease.
The third disease is pemphigoid, which causes blisters on the gums. Local application of glucocorticoid gargles or local injection of glucocorticoid bubbles can make the blisters disappear. It is necessary to undergo detailed examination at the hospital to determine the cause of the gum blisters and then perform corresponding treatment.
The most common cause of blisters on the gums is apical abscess. After the abscess ruptures or incision and drainage, a fistula is formed, and the inflammation enters the chronic stage, often manifesting as recurrent gum blisters. It is important to seek timely treatment for gum blisters. Generally, radiographs should be taken first to examine the condition of the apical lesion, and root canal treatment can be performed. If the apical lesion is severe and the residual root and crown cannot be cured, the tooth needs to be extracted. If it occurs during the deciduous teeth period, attention should be paid to the deciduous teeth fistula, as its long-term existence can affect the development of permanent teeth. Sometimes, the blisters do not cause pain symptoms and are chronic inflammations, so oral antibiotics are not very effective, and early treatment is recommended.
