How do u make ur puffy gums go back to normal?


Answers:

What caused the puffy gums? Braces, Gingivitis, Medication? Get your teeth cleaned first off. On a daily basis you need to brush at a 45 degree angle to the gum tissue with a soft tooth brush. Brush in small cirucular motion. Brush 2-3 times a day for 2-3 minutes ea. time. Change your brush every 2-3 months. Floss once a day in a "c" shape around the sides of each tooth. See-saw down past the contact of your teeth then in an up and down, or circular motion buff the tooth with the floss. Keep your fingers about an inch apart going down and coming back up to maintain a good tension and control of the floss. If your gums bleed with brushing or flossing...keep doing it. After a few days it will lessen and then eventually stop bleeding. That is your goal.
I recommend an electric toothbrush usually too. I like the Oral B Braun, or Sonicare.
If your gums have been puffy for a long period of time and have gotten out of control it might require some minor surgery to get it to go away. Your dentist needs to help you decide about that. Do the hygiene routine for now and forever. Good luck.
