TL;DR
Pharmacies in Nha Trang may stock Metrogyl Denta (metronidazole plus chlorhexidine) or plain chlorhexidine. If gum inflammation does not improve within a few days—especially in a child with braces—see a dentist.
Ask a pharmacy for Metrogyl Denta gum gel, which may be sold under the same name in Vietnam. If it is not recognized, show the active ingredients: metronidazole and chlorhexidine.
As a temporary pharmacy option, ask for chlorhexidine for oral use. One practical approach shared was to hold it briefly in the mouth and spit it out rather than vigorously rinsing, or to apply it gently to the sore area with a cotton pad.
If gums are inflamed around braces, consider pausing use of a water flosser so the area is not further irritated. If there is no improvement after a few days or the child is in pain, consult a dentist, as the problem may not be caused by the braces alone.
