Pain relief methods for inflamed wisdom teeth during pregnancy include rinsing with saline solution and local irrigation. If symptoms are not severe, rinsing the mouth with mild salt water can effectively remove food debris from the affected area, helping to alleviate inflammation, pain, and swelling. A small pocket between the oral cavity and the gums can be flushed with hydrogen peroxide followed by normal saline, then cleaned with iodine glycerin. In daily life, maintaining good oral hygiene is essential; diet should be light, and spicy foods should be avoided.
