I had a deep cleaning procedure 3 weeks ago after my dentist suggested would help my gum pocket that i have complained about for the last two months. He recommended saline water and mouthwash regularly every day. It got a little better but I still cannot eat on that side and I am wondering if anyone can help me decide on what to do. Is it supposed to take that long to heal? My dentist also suggested a very weird solution, which is to cover that tooth with a crown which will cover the gum pocket area so I can eat on it normally. I do not want to scrape of a perfectly healthy tooth just for the gum pocket! Please advise, knowing I take excellent care of my teeth.
