Hi,
Thanks for your query.
you have Cavity in your teeth so when you take food some particles goes inside & gets infected resulted in to gingivitis so you have gum swelling.
You need to visit Dentist who just check all teeth & If he feels Roots of your teeth is OK suggest you Root canal treatment & after that filling of cavity advised so no particles goes inside & you get relief of it.OK Thanks.
