Open sore in mouth ...Any dentists in the house ?

I am about 6 months pregnant, the other day I managed to bite the inside of my lower lip extremely hard, the actually cut is on my gums behind my lip but really right across from where the bottom of my teeth are. It is extremely sore and when i look down at the cut it looks white right now. What can I rinse with to make sure it doesnt get infected. People say that oral things can affect pregnancies..Any Dentists in the house ?? What should I do ..no dental insurance..???????????

No, do not use Listerine, the only thing you will do is make yourself miserable from the burning sensation that results from the high alcohol content. Sometimes cuts can look a little white as they begin to heal. The new skin covering can look white compared to the other gum tissue. If it does not heal in about another week see someone to get it checked out. In the meantime, warm salt water rinses will toughen the gum tissue up and make it feel better. Pregnancy is a big time of change in any woman's body. The increased hormone levels can give you a condition called pregnancy gingivitis if you are not brushing and flossing EVERYDAY. You have to do the work. Any bleeding in the mouth is NOT healthy and is a source of infection which is not good for you or the baby. If you have periodontal disease, which is when you start to lose bone level as well as tissue attachment, then this can cause some problems in pregnant women. Some of the problems are low birth weight babies, compromised immune systems in the baby, and systemic problems. It is imperative that you take the best care of your teeth and gums while you are pregnant. The link between infection in the mouth and all kinds of bodily troubles is something that is being studied more and more. Any active infection dental or otherwise is unhealthy and keeps your immune system on a heightened alert all of the time. This in turn means your body is focusing on sending antibodies to the source of infection, and not having the time to do all that a growing baby requires. Do not play with oral health, it will affect more things then you can possibly imagine.
