Clove Oil
 

First time trying this out, and omg!!! It's magical. My swollen gum and toothache is temporarily gone. :D Like I don't feel the pain anymore, but it's still swollen lol hopefully it works and make it go away.

Also swish with warm salt water. that will help the swelling go down. *speaking from experience*

Warm salt water is a decent default for everything. I did it both for my wisdom teeth and my gum surgery.

I've had a swollen gum and it's slowly healing. ;_; Maybe I'll try this.

I've had two tooth extractions, and a root canal. Salt water rinses are a lifesaver.

At least three times I day I think, or that's the goal. I just kept a shot glass on hand by the sink.

I did warm salt water rinse and my swollen gum is somewhat like a deflating balloon. :3

Some reason I keep forgetting warm salt water rinses. :( Thanks for the reminder! XD

Saltwater is also great for gargling when you're sick ^_^
