Question?: Does the dentist also want to perform a deep cleaning on your upper? Gingivitis is a bacterial infection that needs to be treated on a daily basis to control (reduce) the bacteria & allow for gum line healing. I have found perioprotect to be a successful treatment using easy to wear trays at home, filled with peroxide that works. Side effect= whiter teeth. Find a dds at www.Perioprotect.Com.

See a dentist: You need to see that dentist who did the previous treatment and have him/her evaluate your upper teeth.
