Swollen gums may be caused by periodontal abscess, wisdom tooth pericoronitis, gingivitis, etc. If it is periodontal abscess, incision and drainage of pus can be made; if it is wisdom tooth pericoronitis, local rinsing will be carried out, and incision and drainage of pus will be made after the abscess is formed, and if it is gingivitis, scaling will be carried out.
