I would like to heal my gums fast; help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gingivitis: There is no "quick fix" to "healing" your gums. The first thing that you should do is contact a qualified dds for a thorough evaluation to diagnose your problem. Gingivitis is inflammation of the gums that can be treated with proper oral hygiene, tooth brushing, flossing and antibacterial/antiseptic rinses. If your problem is more severe, your dentist may refer you to a periodontist. Do it now!
