Dr. Jerry, if I called my dentist to have him see me before my next appt on oct. 9th, do you think he could tell if there was anything wrong in my mouth if my ENT did not see it two weeks ago. I am getting desparate here and can not get in until my Oct. 9th appt. I now have pain in my gum area, but there is no open sore or redness. I can move my tongue across the back right side of my gum, and it hurts. I can not feel any lump and i do not see any lump. I do not want to hear that no one is worried about this. I am tired of hearing those words. Anyway, could he give me some insight as to what it might be as well? Thanks.
