I've got an infected periodontal pocket by my upper left incisor. I had a phone triage with my dentist 4 weeks ago, who suggested cleaning it with an interdental brush dipped in corsodyl. I've been cleaning in the pocket regularly and it seemed to be getting better for a week or so, then it plateaued and now it seems to be getting much worse again. I'm being super diligent with water flossing, brushing after meals and rinsing w corsodyl twice a day.
I'm wfh with two small kids and really in distress about this. The gym between my teeth has a large dark red area. It had gone a lighter pink but is now inflamed. Could anyone offer any help, I'm really in despair and struggling to cope with everything.
