Pus Pocket?

[Meredith Sprinkle]

Hello,

I’m new here and I wanted to see if anyone here could help me. I have what I’ve researched and best guessed as a pus pocket on my gum. (Pardon the picture below, they’re not my best angle, LOL). It is not painful, none of the surrounding teeth or gums hurt, which leads me to believe it’s not an abscessed tooth.

My problem is, I do not have dental insurance. The nearest place that is a “low cost” dental clinic is open on hours where I am working. I’ve been researching, and I’ve seen at home remedies to clear it up such as lemon juice, garlic, and some others like essential oils.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I feel like a walking freakshow and I’m embarrassed to open my mouth, so anything you could suggest would be great.

Thank you so much in advance!
