Suggest An Alternative For Metrogyl To Get Rid Of Swollen Gums
Hello,
I live in Canada and Ive suffered from swollen gums and pus from 2 years and believe this to be a contributing factor to my bad breath and discomfort. I saw that you recommended metrogyl to someone and was wondering if there was an option you could recommend that is available in Canada.
Thank you for your time.

Thank you for your query,
Tab. Metrogyl is usually recommended for anaerobic infections. This is usually recommended in periodontal infections.
From the symptoms that you have mentioned and what I could decipher is that, in your case it is not only the periodontal infection.
The infection is associated with another cause namely calculus deposit, underlying deep pocket formations to name a few.
I should recommend you to see a Dentist and let him/her understand the underlying cause of this infection for 2 years.
