Teeth are called Teeth, a tooth is called a Tooth (yes, even medical personnel use those terms)...but they are classified by type, such as back teeth are MOLARS, "eye-teeth" are CANINES, etc. Also are terms like bicuspids, pre-molars and so on, depending on the location of the tooth in question. You can further clarify should you have the interest, by viewing any of the many DENTAL websites. Hope that helps!Dental
The medical term for pus in gums is called "gingival abscess." It is a localized collection of pus around the gum tissues, usually caused by a bacterial infection. Treatment typically involves draining the abscess and addressing the underlying cause, which may include periodontal disease or tooth decay.
That is the correct spelling of the word "dental" (pertaining to teeth).
