Hello. It’s safe to visit a Dentist in these times. All operatories follow COVID guidelines prioritising patients comfort and safety. On clinical examination, appropriate treatment can be rendered. I would suggest do not delay. This inflammation in gums often recedes gums with further spread of infection with underlying bone loss and weak teeth. Sooner you get treated, the better
Next Steps
Visit Dentist asap
Health Tips
Warm saline gargle 3-4 times/day. Rinsing after eating meals. Avoid food accumulation, Brush well.
