In brief: NO WAY
Gingivitis cannot go away on its own or merely with mouthwashes.
The smell and symptoms (bleeding, discomfort, etc., ) may be masked. Get to a dentist for a thorough cleaning and proper dental hygiene instructions.

In brief: No
No mouthwash can get rid of gingivitis by themselves.
Proper oral hygiene with brushing and flossing twice a day, in addition to visiting your dentist at least twice a year, are the main things to get rid of gingivitis.
Mouthwashes can help, but they are not all equally effective.
In brief: No
No mouthwash can get rid of gingivitis by themselves.
