If I am not mistaken you mean to say that there are over retained remnants of deciduous teeth. These have not exfoliated till now. You should get them removed. Anti Convulsants drugs are known to cause enlargement of gums, which causes pockets formation therefore they should be excised and you should be able to maintain good oral hygiene. Please visit a Periodontist
