My mouth hurts!
Lately my mouth has been hurting really bad at the top. The part that connects your gum to your lip is really hurting me. Whenever I move my lips a certain way it give my pain. I tried looking up what could be wrong with it and the only information I got was that it could be torn but the symptoms of it being torn says bleeding which hasn't happened to me. Does anyone know what the problem is and how I should handel it because it's been a week and it hurts to smile (and I like smiling).

I am no doctor but perhaps you just have an infection or one of those ingrown bumps that grow inside of the mouth, or sometimes on the gums.
Just a few weeks ago I had a pain on my gums near the root where the tooth and gum connect and I couldn't even talk or move my lips without my mouth hurting due to that pain.
I was contemplating on going to the dentist but eventually it just went away.
Don't be too concerned, unless it gets worse or carries on for a long time.
Just deal with the pain for a little bit without feeling too concerned or worried.
Good luck!

All I can say is what I know from experience. You might have a little infected cut somewhere in your gums. Or your gums might be swelling up for some reason (ur taking in too much of bad stuff, perhaps) That results in swelling. This makes it easier for little cuts to develop and get a little infected. Commonly called "canker sores", are little infections of the mouth that get invaded by bacteria and cause painful sores. Which they go away after a while. So my tip for that, is keep your mouth clean by brushing your teeth regularly. This will help. Also eating healthy with plenty of vitamin C fruits. Also, drink plenty of water. This is not uncommon for people that wear braces. If changing your diet and keeping your mouth clean for a week or 2 doesn't make it better. Then u might wanna see a dentist. I've heard u can have some calcium build up around the teeth and can cause gums to swell up. It usually isn't a problem, but with eating too many foods that cause 'inflammation'. It can show up from time to time. There are also over the counter medicines for canker sores. Tho I usually just go with that I said. The choice is yours. Best of luck!
