8. Sensitive gums

Gums should be healthy and able to withstand pressure and touches. If they become sensitive all a sudden, it’s a sign that you may have dry socket. With this condition, the gums may still stay pink, but they will hurt. Pay proper attention to them when brushing your teeth and eating food. If you take good care of your teeth, you shouldn’t have sensitivity. As it is with red gums, sensitive gums also need special toothpaste. Along with that, you may want to brush your teeth a few more times a day than usual. It should pass in a day or two, along with the infection.
