The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] Hello. I have a hole in the back of my mouth in the gums. It appeared about 4 days ago out of nowhere and has gotten worse as more time passed. My throat is also sore, it hurts to open my mouth too far and it hurts to close it all the way. I Am a smoker but recently quit. Havent had one in 5 days. I dont know if that is usual information. I went to the doctor but she didnt know what it was and told me to go to a mouth surgeon, but I havent been able to get ahold of him, yet.
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor Team. Understanding your concern. Hole in posterior region in gums is nothing but a sinus tract formation over there. Your tooth in that region must be carious or infected badly that is why pus keeps on accumulating there and caused a swelling called abscess. Tooth abscess is because of poor oral hygiene, bacterial infection and yes smoking is also the most contributing factor for mouth disease. Pus from that tooth abscess start leaking and cause a sinus tract/ fistula formation over there. You should go to dentist get X-rays done. Take antibiotics for infection suppression. Dentist will Chat Doctor. If not restorable get extraction done. Hope your concern has been resolved. Best Wishes,
