Ive dipped bout 3 times, longest lip was prolly 10 minutes and aftrr every lip I rinsed mouth out with water. But with in the last week a space grew between teeth and a pretty bad throbing ache is coming from the gum, the space wasnt there prior to dipping, but I cant be sure dipping caused it since ive only did it 3 times for a very short period. I see some black in the gum when I attempt to look at it in the mirror but again not sure. Could use help, and yes ive already stopped dipping was never addicted.
