A member asked:
Gums on right-side of mouth really hurts when i brush. is it just sensitive?

Possibly...: But sensitive gingiva could be a sign of more serious problems, like periodontitis. Why take a chance? Have a local dentist examine you to see if you have any dental problems... It may prevent loss of your teeth.
