Can i reverse gingivitis caused from periodontal disease?

Reverse gingivitis: Gingivitis is the gum swelling associated with poor home dental care. If left untreated it will progress to periodontitis which means that you are losing alveolar bone and ligament attachment. If you get treatment for the gum disease coupled with improve brushing and flossing technique and habit, you will see the gingivitis go away. Bone and ligament loss will stop but not reverse itself.

Progression: Typically gingivitis is present first and then as the disease process progresses, you can get periodontal disease. Treating the periodontal disease with scaling and root planing (deep cleaning) or periodontal surgery can help create a healthy state in your mouth again. This coupled with proper brushing and flossing at home will help cure the inflammation (gingivitis) in your gums.

Floss regularly: True gingivitis, limited to just inflammation in the gums, can be reversed with good oral care and regular dental visits. You want to get it checked though to make sure it hasn't progressed to the more serious form of periodontitis.
