The flesh on the incisors is the incisal gums. Swelling of incisal gums may be caused by gingival papillitis, gingivitis, periodontitis, etc. If it is gingival papillitis, then remove the irritating factors and rinse locally; if it is gingivitis, then perform scaling; if it is periodontitis, then perform perfect periodontal treatment.
1. Gingival papillitis: redness and swelling of the gingival papilla caused by mechanical or chemical stimulation of the gingival papilla. The treatment should firstly remove the local stimuli, such as food, overhangs of fillings, broken toothpicks, fish splinters, etc., and then use 3% hydrogen peroxide solution for rinsing.
2. Gingivitis: non-specific inflammation of the gums caused by plaque, thickening of the gingival margins, gingival papillae become rounded and hypertrophied, through scaling, removal of plaque and tartar on the gums and other irritants, usually effective in relieving the symptoms of gingivitis.
3. Periodontitis: Gum swelling caused by inflammation of periodontal tissues caused by bacteria and other factors, need to be perfect periodontal treatment, including basic periodontal treatment, such as gingival cleaning, subgingival scraping and root planing, etc., periodontal surgical treatments, such as flap surgery, membrane gingival surgery and so on.
There may be other reasons for swollen gums on incisors, so it is recommended to go to the hospital in time to clarify the cause of the disease and then carry out targeted treatment.
