Answer 6

if it was 3-4 YEARS ago, a piece of tooth root might of stayed behind. (they should of informed you of it.) sometimes the lil 'splinter' work it way out which is now hurting. see your dentist so they could remove it and get you out of pain... or the bone has irregularities and its an area that sticks out and since bone loss is common with having a tooth missing that long its just like that, but if its really hurting/bothering you the might have to go in and file your gum down (surgery).

so see your dentist...
