Healing varies: Make sure you are brushing and flossing properly AFTER meals and snacks. You did not say how long it has been since your treatment. You can also rinse with Hydrogen Peroxide (3% 1:1 with water). If there is no improvement in one week, go back to the dentist to have him\her check your oral hygiene and healing.

See your doctor : again for re-evaluation. You may need subgingival (deep cleaning) and root planning to remove: contamination, toxins, micro-organisms, plaque, and calculus that have accumulated around and below the gum. The root surfaces of your teeth are smoothed so the gum tissues can more firmly reattach and heal. Take care.
