What can I do about my gingivitis?


Question:
My teeth have been receding over past several months. I was brushing and flossing,but maybe not good enough cause I got some cavities. I also lost insurance. I think I have gingivitis. Went to a free clinic and they never helped. I went back to school and now am having problems again. What can I do?

Answers:
Hello gingivitis is very common and your gums will not grow back but you can prevent them from receeding further. Here is some tips:

* Brush your gums not only your teeth.
* Brush & floss in the morning and night, use a chlorohexadine mouthwash in between.
* You need regular cleans at your dentist if you can.
* Stay away from fizzy juice and sugar.
You need to see a dentist. I don't know what to tell you because there isn't any substitute for this. Start saving your money or see if you can find one that will take payments. Also look into getting another dental insurance policy.
You need to take care of this or you won't have any teeth to worry about.
how did you lose youre insurance anyways? did you done something bad that made you loosed youre insurance ? well not all places such as doctors offices do are same . some places do help people who doesnt have insurance and some does. i think you can get some little money from youre umm darn what that word iam looking for. i hope someone else know what iam talkin about . . well i think you shouldnt eat anymore sweet foods or candies anymore. can cause big problem and plus you will get alot of sore tooth ach alot. offten . if youre teeths hurts you shouldnt drink cold water or sodas, even juice. you can drink warm drinks . no hot water. you should take something for the pain if you do feel it sometimes. you should brush youre teeth every nights , every morning , even brush youre teeth after you do ated something . , floss them and if you dont have a mouth wash i think you should buy one from the drug store. cause mouth wash does help with bad gingivitis and bad breaths .have you even ask or get help by youre family or friends that wili help you out to go to the denitist for check up . if you keep annoying it then later on youre teeth will fall out and you will lose some of youre tooths . thats not really good thing.
