Periodontal gum pocket

2022-03-19 09:34:12
Pericoronitis in lower wisdom tooth has resulted in a tooth cavity and a gum pocket is created with gum inflammation. Tooth cavity is filled and healed, but gum pocket and inflammation still exists. Trying to avoid visting a clinic. What would be the best course of action to treat this?

My first advice will be to visit nearest dentist. but if you refrain from it, you can try using interdental brush to clean the gingival area.
