You can take anti-inflammatory drugs such as cephalosporin capsules, amoxicillin, erythromycin capsules and metronidazole tablets for anti-inflammation when gums are swollen. Most swollen gums are caused by periodontitis or periapical inflammation. In addition to oral medication, systematic treatment of the teeth is required to control the inflammation at the root. In the case of periodontitis, the gums of several teeth in the mouth will be red and swollen. In the treatment, ultrasonic scaling should be used to remove the infectious substances such as tartar and plaque around the gums, and periodontal scraping is needed to make the periodontal swelling disappear if the symptoms are serious. If the gum swelling is located at the apical part of the tooth, it means that the tooth is suffering from periapical inflammation, and the treatment requires root canal treatment of the affected tooth in order to control the inflammation. If the gum at the far end of the tooth bed is swollen, it may be suffering from pericoronitis of the wisdom tooth. In addition to using the above-mentioned medications for anti-inflammatory purposes, local rinsing and medication of the wisdom tooth should be performed.
