Baby Dental, Can You Reverse Gingivitis on Your Own?
Question: I think I may have gingivitis. Truthfully i know I have not taken really good care of my teeth and I only brushed them when I felt like it. Even though my teeth look normal my gums seem to be receding and when I brush my gums bleed a little. Can I reverse this on my own?
Answer: You can reverse the gingivitis but not on your own. I strongly suggest you see a dentist. A dentist will be able to tell if you have gingivitis or if it has progress into a larger issue. The dentist will determine what course of dental treatment is needed, but generally speaking you may need to have at least a deep cleaning. However regardless what is done by the dentist he or she can not help you without you doing your part. You must start having proper dental care habits at home in order to reclaim healthier teeth and gums.
