Signs of Gum disease are bleeding gums and their recession and loose teeth when advanced, and bad breath. Prevention and curing the progress is by brushing, flossing and rinsing every day especially at night, and having your teeth professionally cleaned and checked at least every six months. Your overall health is greatly enhanced by having a healthy mouth.

Soreness, itching, bleeding, swelling, recession. The cure is professional Dental care. For example, no OTC can remove tarter from below the gum line. There is good and just reason for religiously seeing your Dentist every 6 months. Please go now.
