How To Heal Some Particle Entrapment Mediated Pain In Left Upper Gum?
I am having pain in my left upper gums for last many days. Probably, some particle seems to be entrapped between a tooth and gum. Is there any home remedy to dislodge the same? I am rinsing with salt water. Otherwise what is the clinical remedy and cost?

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have mentioned that you have some food particle intraped , dont worry you if it is interdental areas you Do Floss interdental , may this will you help you
For this if possible you should consult dentist and if there is Periodontal pocket formation then go for Oral Prophylaxis and it is not costly procedure it will not cost much , go for Scaling and Root planning ,
Do warm saline gargle 3 - 4 times a day
Hope it will help you.
Wishing you good health ,
