Please go see the dentist for support. Note that major studies have shown that there is a link between gum disease and premature birth. Researchers of one study who published their results in The Journal of the American Dental Association found that pregnant women with chronic gum disease were four to seven times more likely to deliver prematurely (before gestational week 37) and underweight babies than mothers with healthy gums. Mothers with the most severe periodontal disease delivered the most prematurely, at 32 weeks. Hence, to be on a safe side, do try to visit your dentist. Take care, God bless you and baby!

I used to gargle with salt water in the morning and gargle with mouthwash before I go to bed. Do this daily until the pain is gone. Hopefully it works for you too. If the pain is still there, best to see a dentist.
