Hi ! Please get a physical Consultation done . Pain can be periodontal , for which Scaling and root planing would be recommended . But again physical examination needs to be done to understand the cause and get the best treatment done . For now , please do warm saline rinses 3-4 times a day
Next Steps
Physical consultation
Health Tips
Warm saline rinses 3-5 times a day

if ur father is comfortable ,it's better to visit near by dentist for physical evaluation of his gums. Professional cleaning is necessary to avoid bleeding gums.
Health Tips
salt water gargling twice daily.
