I’ve had gingivitis for a while, but it never went farther than that(because of regular trips to the dentist) About a week ago I decided to begin to treat it I brushed, flossed, and used mouthwash twice a day and I already notice a difference My gums are less swollen and red(now more of a dark pink) My teeth are whiter and my breath smells better my gums also now bleed a lot less Please remember to take care of you teeth, don’t take them for granted Update: it’s almost been two weeks, and my gums and teeth only keep getting better. My gums are even less red and they don’t even bleed anymore

Later food impaction, gingivitis, foul smell, extractions and dentures. Also tons of PAIN! However, I still have a dozen teeth left in my head.

2,5 months ago I had a dental surgery where I replaced 26 of my natural crowns with zirconium (for a bright, shinny smile) and had recently noticed a difference of smell, taste and behaviour of my gums. Got even more sensitive and started bleeding when brushing my teeth. Initially I thought that it could have been a post surgery sensitivity and reduced the twice a day brushing to just once whilst also applying less pressure when using the electric toothbrush. Few days later I have noticed that the issue has just gone worse, as the bad smell got to a point where I had to avoid french kissing (my missus wasn't happy and I withheld the reason). After a bit of a research, collected the right information and begun doing my morning brush adding salt on my toothbrush + mouthwash and flossing + brushing using toothpaste + mouthwash in the evening. 2 days into this process and it made such a huge difference. Hope this helps. Going back to enjoy kissing (hehehe) Stay clean guys

I went to the dentist a few weeks ago & was diagnosed with periodontitis. didn't seem to matter how often I brushed my teeth (at least 3x a day) or flossed (at least 1x a day). Now I have to go every 3-4 months for treatment that's costing me $$$ I can't really afford w/out tightening my belt big time. Someone told me about oil pulling (swishing coconut oil around your mouth for about 15-20 minutes every day) to repair some of the damage. Tried it tonight--not a fantastic experience--but I'm desperate. I can't reverse the damage at this point but don't want to make it worse. . . .

[@fastingislife3766]

wlhardy be patient with oil pulling. I’m not going to spend money on something I can heal myself. I too was told three days ago by a dentist 🦷 that I got periodontitis. The last time I’ve seen a dentist was almost 16 yrs ago. I still got all my teeth

It amazes me to see people not taking care of their teeth. I once had a friend who became homeless so I took him in. I bought him everything he needed, including a toothbrush. Around a year later I noticed that he had the same toothbrush and it still looked new. When I asked him about it, he said he hasn’t brushed his teeth even once. That’s when I noticed that half of his teeth were gone. Rotting out of his gums. He was always complaining about toothaches and headaches. Every night and morning I would ask him to at least brush if he didn’t feel like flossing or using mouthwash. He got angry with me for doing so. Now, he has only a few teeth left and a huge infection making him miserable. He still doesn’t brush his teeth. Says he will just get dentures once they all fall out 🤦🏼

[@jennymdental]

@@100PercentBudder you'd only really know if you have early stages of gum disease by a dental visit where they measure around the gum, and they can advise you based on attachment loss (pocket depths) whether it is mild or severe disease. it's hard to know if you have pockets yourself, they don't have to be painful or obvious to be there and they require a special probe to be able to measure them (almost like a mini ruler) so definitely go see your dentist for a check :) in terms of the gumline is it a red band along the tooth margin above a pink gum appearance? this may mean that you just need to focus more along the gums when brushing rather than the tooth itself, lots of people forget the gums need gentle massaging with a toothbrush as well as brushing the teeth to remove plaque bacteria etc, if you angle it diagonally towards the gum margin you should get the best result :)

Anyone else suffer with really bad breath because of periodontal disease? Not sure if it's the disease, bacteria, or the blood from my bleeding gums.

[@drelamaaraeenmadhvan7578]

To subsided the bad breath u may use 0.125% cholorohexidine for two weeks which will reduce inflammation and omit bad breath or also called as halitosis

Okay .. I have a bone on my bottom gum and it hurts when I brush my teeth around it and laugh ... I don’t know why it showed up there anyways because I’ve been brushing and taking care of my teeth EVERYDAY and it’s like it’s still won’t do something and I’m really pissed at this moment. It’s like I’m putting a lot of work in but not receiving anything in return but weird bones on my gums and receding teeth on the boom ... sometimes I wish I can end it all .. like why am I getting this problem at an early age? If this world wanted me to have this disease they could’ve just made me get it when I’m really old and about to die... it’s like I just don’t understand!!!! I brush my teeth everyday and IM SO MAD OMG.. I just can’t explainnnnnnn ... it’s like they tell me to brush my teeth more .. no duh I do brush my teeth more it’s just the teeth that don’t know how to act .

[@BucksChamps]

I understand your feelings, I really really do. I'm 14 and I have a bit of gum recession. Sometimes I feel like life just fricking hates me, and to answer your question above, I'm gonna say I'm not really sure but maybe ur overbrushing, it can lead to gum recession

[@duckblure.u.cacademy2445]

[@zehravigna4873]

If I understand well, it is mostly our immune systeme which makes damages.

[@lucasb409]

I have a thought that due to genetics and predisposition to autoimmune disorders you may be right.

[@lindseyohara3706]

everytime i brush my teeth, my gums become really inflamed and start burning. they also become really red.. what should i do

[@kristieo2983]

Make sure you are not brushing too hard, are using a soft tooth brush and using proper toothbrushing technique. Also make sure you are flossing at least once a day.

[@lindseyohara3706]

Kristie Oluyemi yeah, i got a new, softer toothbrush and the problem has thankfully been solved. i don’t floss everyday though

[@omarammar3833]

u must visit your dentist .Smoking and lack of interest in correct and healthy methods of oral and tongue hygiene may be one of the reasons.
