Every now and then when I wake up, my lower gums, about 2-3 teeth out from the center on both sides, are slightly swollen....It doesn't hurt, but it bugs me as to why it happens...My teeth aren't in too good of condition, and many of them came in at slightly odd angles...I'm thinking that may have something to do with it, but I don't know...I don't have any medical insurance either, so I can't go get myself checked out...
