There can be difference in availability of space irt same tooth of different quardrant in same jaw.
In this age that is one of the most common reasons.
T. Parasafe 650, upto 3 times/day,only if discomfort.
If doesn't subside, apply dologel CT, 4 times a day on affected gum for 3 mins, dont swallow saliva, rinse mouth thoroughly after 3 mins.
If doesn't subside,yiu we old need to take antibiotic and analgesic.
