This is an example of what we call acute pericoronitis, where the gum is over the wisdom tooth and food can get trapped there, which leads to swelling and pain.
The first step is to remove the food and plaque trapped there, then we either do an operculectomy (cutting part of the gum over the tooth). This is for younger people, 17 years to early 20s. But most times, thereโs a possibility the gum grows back over the tooth. ๐
So, the definitive treatment is to take out that tooth: a surgical extraction.
Some people feel toothpaste can solve tooth pain. No, it canโt. A toothpaste with fluoride, which can be Colgate, will help prevent you from having dental cavities, gum issues and the likes.
In all, always brush your teeth twice daily.
