HELP SWOLLEN GUM

[13kitty]

Please help!!!!
I’m currently 22 1/2 weeks pregnant and about 3 weeks ago while at work my gum above my left canine tooth got extremely swollen and red all of a sudden! I have the dentist tomorrow but I am
Absolutely terrified it’s an abscess and I will need the tooth out!!! I’d be ok if it was at the back but it’s so close to the front I don’t want to
Lose it and be left insecure 😭

I’ve had bad bleeding gums since my first trimester and been using special toothpaste and mouthwash as directed! Anyone had this before?

Go to Boots and get some dental sticks - maybe you've got some food traces stuck between your teeth which is causing gingivitis.

Thank you, willing to try anything! I’m hoping I’ve caught it early as there is no pain!

What did the he dentist say?

I had a deep clean and she told me how to keep the area clean after eating but I need to go back in a week for another check up.
