This happened to my daughter when she got braces and the dentist said she wasn't brushing thoroughly enough. There may be a build up of bacteria on your toothbrush, so buy a new one - you should change your brush at least once every 6 months. You may need to change to a different brand of toothpaste and use a mouthwash for a couple of weeks. Also gum disease can be due to a lack of vitamin C so eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables.



You Have Gum Disease You Just Have To Use An Anti Bacterial Mouthwash And You Will Be Fine



Gum disease or Gingivitis. Just drink lots of milk, brush teeth 3x a day or after every meal and in the morning and at night. You mouthwash (I recommend the brand "Act" it's blue and works good at restoring enamel). It's just your gums are week. Take a calcium vitamin if you don't like milk. Or do mouth, You can never have too much calcium, helps your bones too! Anyways don't worry. Just MAKE SURE YOU'RE BRUSHING YOURE TEETH ALOTT AND I MEAN THAT! It could turn into an Abscess. They hurt So bad! I have right now and the entire right side of my face is swollen. I'm on antibiotics and steroids(steroids ease swelling) I can't sleep cause it swells more. This is the worst pain I've ever been in in my life! I'd honestly rather break both my legs then go through what I have been since last Friday! Brush your teeth! I have terrible teeth I would go a while without brushing my teeth! Now this scared me into it and I brush my teeth after everything thing I eat! Use mouthwash, floss (the dentist said flossing is the most important thing to do!) taking vitamins and drinking milk! Good oral hygiene Is so important!
