Had 3 wisdom teeth removed (both top + bottom right) and also lost molar #18 (bottom left). Healing has been smooth overall until today.

Now the bottom-left area (same side as the extracted molar + the remaining wisdom tooth that’s too close to a nerve to pull yet) looks irritated. There’s some tissue around that wisdom tooth that seems inflamed or growing over it.

Trying to figure out what this is… maybe gum inflammation or something like pericoronitis? Anyone had something similar?
