Dental Floss - A Security Threat

The gum surrounding my bottom right molar is swollen. I don't know what caused it. I can't chew with the molar because it hurts. I filled out a request slip to see the dentist. Hopefully, there's no abscess in the gums.

It's been over 6 months since I was able to floss my teeth. Due to security reason the jail does not sell dental floss. Obviously, health care is not a priority in comparison to security.

I'll see what the dentist has say to help alleviate my swollen gum.
