### input:
I have had a small red sore on my gum in the middle going toward the back of my mouth on the right side on and off now since July. I have used the Orajel antiseptic healing rinse. It went away. I stopped using the rinse and it came back. I began brushing my teeth more and flossing regularly and it went away again. I did fall short of my oral hygeine practices and it came back. I went to the dentist. He did X-rays for other pain I was having on the other side of my mouth (upper). I showed him the sore and he said it did not look serious and prescribed me some amoxicillin for possible infection. He told me to brush the area really good and floss. I started to brush really well again and floss and it went away. I did not take the antibiotics right away. Well now it has come back and I am taking the antibiotics, although I took half the bottle and stopped and now I am taking the rest, so it may not be effective. Ultimately, I am seeking professional advice. Does this sound like something serious? If not what is your conclusion?  Desperate to heal
