What Should I Do If My Gums Are Swollen and Have Bubbles?

In daily life, it is estimated that everyone has experienced oral issues, such as common gum blisters and swelling, which can be particularly painful. Some people may even experience gum bleeding. When gum problems arise, it is important to first identify the specific cause before proceeding with treatment. Only targeted therapy will achieve better results. If it is gingivitis, it is necessary to seek medical treatment. If it is caused by excessive heat, it is necessary to carry out heat-clearing conditioning.

1. If there is swelling, pain, and pus in the gums, it is considered to be caused by chronic apical abscess or periodontal abscess. Chronic apical periodontitis is manifested as dental caries, discomfort with occlusion, and a history of previous pain. A suppurative inflammation is formed at the root apex, which ruptures through the gums to form a fistula. The abscess is located near the root of the tooth. Periodontal abscess is mainly caused by periodontal lesions, and the abscess is located near the dental crown. If it is a chronic apical abscess, root canal treatment is required, and the abscess in the gums should be drained, rinsed, and medicated. After treatment, it will gradually heal. Periodontal abscess also needs to be drained, rinsed, and medicated. In addition, periodontal pockets and root surfaces need to be scraped to remove plaque and tartar that cause infection. In general, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible for examination and treatment of affected teeth.

2. Gum swelling and pain are mainly caused by inflammation of the gums. The inflammation under the gums spreads through tooth gaps, dental tartar, and dead corners of the mouth, leading to the attachment of dental plaque to the gums and resulting in gum swelling and pain. In addition, wisdom tooth pericoronitis caused by excessive heat is also a cause of gum swelling and pain. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary hygiene and health. If the effect of medication is not good, local rinsing and medication can be chosen for anti-inflammatory treatment.

3. Gingivitis can cause obvious discomfort such as swelling and pain. Oral anti-inflammatory and anti-anaerobic drugs are needed to alleviate the symptoms and restore the condition as much as possible. Attention should be paid to oral hygiene, avoiding spicy and stimulating foods, avoiding fatigue, and getting enough rest. Alternatively, medication can be taken first for anti-inflammatory treatment, and the diet should be kept light.

1. Develop good chewing habits and chew slowly. This can promote the secretion of digestive juices, facilitate the full digestion of food, and promote circulation, which is beneficial to the health of the eye area tissues. In addition, it is also necessary to get rid of the bad habit of chewing on one side only.

2. Use physiological saline or medicinal gargle solution to rinse the mouth. When rinsing, close your mouth tightly and use your lips and tongue to fully move the gargle solution around, allowing it to repeatedly flush the gaps between teeth and food residue in various places, and then spit it out.
