Hello! Thank you for posting here. This is peritonitis of the third molar. You did not mention your general oral hygiene status. As you mentioned this often appears, i suggest you to get the upper and lower right side third molars removed. Third molar has no role in mastication. Also maintain good oral hygiene routine. Get scaling done every 6 months. Take moxikindCV 625\u00a0mg twice daily for 3 days. Take retool 10\u00a0mg DT if the pain is severe. Dilute it in water and Chat Doctor. Do a warm saline water gargle thrice daily. You can apply the ointment suggested by your physician. Hope this helps.
