Help!! My mouth is so sore

I really need some help and reassurance please. When i found i was pregnant with his DC, one of the symptoms was bleeding gums.

I am now 19 weeks and for two weeks have severe pain in my gums - i have been to see the dentist who gave me antibiotics in case of infection, the pain went away eventually and the dentist gave me the all clear yesterday. Today though i have the pain again and really struggling tbh - I dont think its infection, i just think its inflamation because of the pregnancy. Its like a constant throbbing but makes me so touchy and upset.

Can someone just tell me this is normal and any suggestions please. I have taken parcetemol but its not working for longer than an hour at a time. Salt water, crunched on garlic cloves, bonjella, mouth wash just dont help:(

Will it pass or will i have this for the rest of the pregnancy? i didnt have this my DD.

Thanks so much.
