Swollen gums ka hindi
Swollen gums are called सूजे हुए मसूड़े in Hindi and may result from plaque, gingivitis, food trapping, trauma, or infection.
The short answer
Swollen gums are called सूजे हुए मसूड़े in Hindi and may result from plaque, gingivitis, food trapping, trauma, or infection. The gum tissue may look red, feel tender, or bleed when plaque irritates its margin.
What are the gums around my teeth?
Gingiva are the pink tissues surrounding the teeth and covering the jawbone. Swelling means the tissue has increased fluid or inflammatory cells, often around plaque, a trapped seed, a partially erupted wisdom tooth, or a local injury.
How can I care for swollen gums at home?
Brush along the gumline with a soft brush, clean between the teeth, and rinse gently with warm salt water. Do not cut the gum, squeeze a swelling, or stop cleaning the area because plaque can maintain the inflammation.
When should swollen gums be checked by a dentist?
See a dentist if swelling persists, recurs, bleeds easily, or is associated with pain, pus, loose teeth, or bad breath. Facial swelling, fever, or difficulty swallowing or breathing needs urgent care.
What could be causing my swollen gums?
Ask whether plaque, gum pockets, a wisdom tooth, decay, or an abscess explains the swelling. Ask whether you need professional cleaning, a radiograph, drainage, or treatment of the tooth causing the problem.
Frequently asked questions
Is bleeding from swollen gums normal?
It signals irritation or inflammation and should improve only after the cause is addressed.
Can food stuck between teeth cause swelling?
Yes. Remove it gently with interdental cleaning and seek care if swelling or pain remains.
