Answers:
I had my braces off around about Four months ago!. After having them removed i asked my Orthodontist why i had bumps around my teeth that where hard, she told me not to worry as they were just from where you brush you teeth and the places you cant reach because of your brace being there will inflame!.
She told me not too worry as they would go down within a couple of days she recommended too brush teeth regularly and to use an anti-septic mouth was such as Listerine and the inflammation would go down in time!. Hope this helped you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Donot panic!. The gums will become normal itself!. Just keep brushing and flossing every day!. The braces are there on other teeth, when they are removed, the things will become normal!. Your front teeth, then adjusted to their new position, the gums will settle down!. for more information you can visit www!.identalhub!.com
They even have the facility of free consultation by dentist, where you can ask the question and it is promptly answered!.

That pic looks fine!.!.!.!.Keep brushing with a SOFT only toothbrush, give it another week or so and really work the bristles at the gum line!.!.!.pushing the tissue back a bit with a circular motion!.!.!.!.
Hopfully with 2 X a day for the one week, the tissue should respond!.!.!.!.
If you are still not sure, go visit the dentist!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
