hi, thnx for your query.
improper cleaning of teeth results in plaque accumalation leading to swollen gums.this is a long process and doesnt happen in single night.
2.herpes infection cause cold sores on lips.
3. erupting wisdom tooth in general causes slight discomfort. is the fever is from single night ?did you use any antibiotics for fever? visit your dentist for opinion.hope this is helpful.
thnk you.

well according to the symptoms you have posted it seems that your wisdom tooth is infected and the infection is spreading to the near by areas ... consultation with a dentist is a must & if he rules involvement of any tooth then a family physician .. for the time being start taking Tab Azithromycin 500 mg 2times + cap lactovit 2times + tab Zerodol 3 times daily for 5 days .. luke warm saline GARGLES with betadine is a must .. medicines are for symptomatic relief only ..

hello there ,

Swelling in the gums indicates inflammation of the gums called gingivitis .

It shows symptoms such as bleeding gums ,redness , swelling , pain and sensitivity , recession of the gums or apical migration ,exposure of root surfaces of teeth .

bacterial or viral infection of the gums may lead to formation of abscess , fever and sore throat. viral infection may lead to formation of cold sores on lip and gums.

you need symptomatic treatment for gingivitis , go for professional scaling of gums , deep currettage and root planing which removes all the irritants ,dental plaque and calculus and restores good oral health.

regular mouth rinsing with lukewarm saline water or antiseptic mouthwash like betadine or chlorhexidine gives soothing effect.

apply topical oral antiseptics over the cold sores along with oral dose of multivitamin suplements.

i hope this helps,

take care.

Hello,
Thanks for posting your query,
Since your gums are swollen,there is chance of periapical infection.
Usually x-ray will reveal such infections.
If periapical abscess occurs,teeth has to be root-canal treated,the abscess has to be drained out and curetted.
Deep scaling and root planning has to be done to prevent gingivitis.
maintain good oral hygiene.
brush your teeth twice daily using toothbrush.
rinse your mouth after every meals.
chlorhexidine mouthrinses can prevent plaque accumulation
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful
Regards

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

Swollen gums occurs due to inflammation of gingiva known as gingivitis .
It occurs due to bacterial or viral infections , poor oral hygiene plague and calculus deposition , systemic conditions like vitamin deficiences , anaemia , diabetes , leukemia , use of certain drugs .

Bacterial and viral infection can lead to fever , sore throat and abscess formation.
If wisdom tooth is errupting on right side , it is difficult to clean and invites bacterial infection leading to inflammation and swelling.

I would advice you to visit to Dentist , get complete mouth scaling and polishing done .
Use saline water gargles 3-4 times a day
Use chlorhexidine mouthwash gargles twice daily.
Take vitamin suplements .
Get an x-ray done of the developing wisdom tooth .

Hope this helps out.

REGARDS...........
