My periodontal journey starts here
I will save the world the money and time I’ve spent trying to find out where I was getting a bad taste/ burning taste from.
But I found this after I was told to try Dr Ellie’s steps. I did everything exactly. First couple times I brushed the whole mouth and gums, I bled like crazy when around the back. This is the area that gets bad taste and burns. I also found the spot back there just looking around a couple days into brushing/rinse routine. It’s sore, not super painful but it’s there as an annoyance.
Now I’ve never suspected I had anything wrong with my teeth to this extent even foregoing a couple cleanings due to thinking it was something else that was causing my bad breath and avoiding the hygienists and giving them trouble. They would never tell me if I have bad breath.
But now I’m really starting to suspect I do have it because now my whole mouth has that nasty feeling it’s like I opened the bacteria up and they are having a field day in there.
Anyone know where I should start with this? Much appreciated. I’m going to continue doing Dr Ellie’s (revised) program before I can get to a dentist
