[QUOTE="dental_care, post: 143651, member: 18181"] Hi there, Swollen and inflamed gums can happen for a number of reasons—sometimes it’s just temporary irritation from brushing too hard, food particles stuck between teeth, or mild gum infection. However, sudden swelling, even with mild pain, shouldn’t be ignored, because it could indicate an underlying issue like an abscess or early gum disease. It’s usually best to [B]avoid chewing on that side until you get it checked[/B], and rinse gently with warm salt water to reduce inflammation. Over-the-counter pain relief can help if needed, but this is not a substitute for a proper dental evaluation. For a safe and thorough check-up, I recommend visiting a professional like [URL='https://www.preferreddentalcaredavie.com/'][B]Preferred Dental Care in Davie[/B].[/URL] They can assess the swelling, identify the cause, and provide the right treatment before it becomes more serious. The team there is experienced, gentle, and can help relieve discomfort quickly. Hope this helps, and wishing you a speedy recovery! [/QUOTE]
