Please, if you have any sure-fire ways of bringing back your receding gums to health, please let me know! Thank you.

Also if you can massage inside your mouth and along your gums with your clean fingertips.
Place your thumb and forefinger on either side of the gum and massage, gently in circular motions,and move along the gum repeating this as you go.
Spend as long as you can doing this.Maybe at bedtime when you are winding down,ready for sleep.

The gums are like a muscle which can retract when tense causing them to recede from the teeth.(This can happen after having some dental work ,probably from the trauma)

By doing this gentle massage you can help to relax it back down again.

Also first thing that comes to mind for gum problems is to take plenty Vitamin C.

Yeah apparently the ones to take are vitamin C (sodium ascorbate), calcium, phosphate and coenzyme Q10 for both teeth and gums and I believe cod liver oil (naturally occuring vitamin A and D, omega 3, plus helps mineral absorption).

Yes Bex,
thanks for reminding me about the CO Q 10,
if you can get this in a liquid form,or even from bursting a capsule of COQ10 this can be massaged onto to gums.
Great stuff.It Should help you alot.
Please Keep us posted and let us know what helps.

hi Sunflower, I didn't know about Q10 for rubbing into the gums! That's another good way too.

I personally feel though that gum problems are related to the internals, so the nutrients mentioned are good for that (taken internally). Like with myself, I got receding gums after my immune system got so much worse and I developed periodontal gum disease. Then my gums receded more after antibiotic use.

So there is definitely a lack of good bacteria involved in this also. Perhaps along with those nutrients, probiotics might be wise also. Diet of course plays a big role, without that, I cannot imagine much else will be too useful.

i have a couple of teeth with receeding gums so i started oil pulling, it was like a miracle in a couple of months my gums were looking really good but i think i tried too hard, i now have terrible face, jaw, neck, head, ear pain and my tinnitus has come back with avengence, i went too far with it. im not saying it doesnt work but if you oil pull go slowly not vigerously like me, anyway its just like me to keep making mistakes with my healh all the time, now have another poblem to deal with and the pain in excruitiating.
when i had my first 3 amalgams removed i had this pain then, maybe it was my tmjoints, and i thought it was mercury symptoms.

Hi Dawn, similar has happened to me a few times in my life. I have heard that toxins and metals migrate and concentrate quite heavily in the jaw because of all the nerves etc.

So if there is anything in there and you were oil pulling, you may have shifted it or something. But a while back I cheated on my diet and everytime I did my jaw would lock up and then come back to normal. Oneday it didn't go back to normal and I spent ages with a jaw that I could not open properly. I coudl hardly get my toothbrush in.

It was so bad that I thought it was permanent, but turns out over time it did come back to normal.

I also had bad jaw when I had braces on my teeth. Many things can cause this and I do believe it's toxic related. It is awful what has happened to you and it's possible you may have shifted quite a bit of concentrated toxins/metals or mobilised them in those areas and are now suffering the consequences. It could be stored mercury or anything.

I do hope this starts to die down dawn. Maybe the DMSA will help that. Some say cilantro appears to help get things out of the nerve areas. I don't know if you're game to try that one though. It's all risky isn't it?

You definitely need to check out "The Secret" at www.saveyourteeth.com. It will make a big difference for you. Be sure to note that if you still have mercury amalgam fillings, you will want to use colloidal silver rather than peroxide.

Oh, and I forgot to add that mercury fillings caused my gums to recede. It took me 20 years to make the connection, but after getting my old dental records, the correlation was quite clear. My gums were so bad that I had surgery to graft tissue and stop the receding. My gums have mostly come back after having the mercury out.

i wish i could use baking soda and salt but my teeth are far too sensitive, i tried hydrogen peroxide, my gums burnt badly. tea tree oil is the only thing i can use as a mouth wash.
my receeding gums started after amalgam removal unfortunatly, this is bloody annoying, i cant even oil pull, that was working very well before it gave me jaw, face and head pain.

Hi Dawn, I had the same thing. Frankly I did not find that baking soda, salt, or any of those products ever did a thing for my gums. I even tried bar soap, because that's supposed to be great, not only does it disinfect gums, but it actually cleans teeth properly without leaving a film on them, which apparently allows for the enamel to grow back properly and calcium and phosphate in diet to get into the teeth again.

Did it work on me? I don't believe it did. I gave it a good go too. Every day and night I brushed with the soap and I didn't really notice any real improvements to be honest. Hydrogen peroxide also burnt my gums and even though I mixed it in with the baking soda and salt. So that was it for me, I was not going to take anymore chances.

I went onto colgate total toothpaste and guess what? My gums and teeth are actually better than they were with any of these healthy alternatives....they IMPROVED. And I have some form of gum disease too. So I don't really know what to say, other than I have an ADA approved toothpaste (and I don't trust the ADA as far as I could throw them)...yet it is working....I now do not get the staining on my teeth as I was getting before because I drink tea without milk. So my teeth start getting stained over time. WIth this toothpaste? The staining doesn't occur. I don't know if that's good or bad though, because that may mean that the film created by the toothpaste doesn't allow anything to stick there.....could that mean nutrients too? I don't know. But I do know that certain I have not noticed any deterioration from using this toothpaste, rather I am quite certain there has been some improvement. I floss every night after brushing too.

I still need more probably because I have low immunity and cannot control infection. Therefore sometimes I use a gum irrigation device with "Ultimate Gum solution". I just pretty much inject the stuff in there with the gum irrigator they provide. And over time, it works, but it needs to be maintained if you have an ongoing problem.

Here is the website. www.1stultimategumsolution.com

I found that after I had it under control by using this stuff once in the morning and once at night, I just maintained it by using it once at night. Sometimes I stopped altogether and then maintained it with just my flossing and brushing, but usually it came back if I cheated on my diet or something else happened like a re-exposure of mercury or whatever. So I'd usually have to do it again. You'll know yourself how your gums are. You also know when you really need the gum stuff again, because the gum irritator being pushed into your gum hurts. When it hurts? You got problems there again. As it gets easier, it's controlling the infection. The only downside to this stuff, is that I don't consider that one gets much for their money. It may not seem expensive, but when you find you need more of it to really get into the gum, it doesn't last all that long. So that side of it is annoying. You need to buy more than one at a time to get more miliage out of it. I usually buy two at a time. It does definitely work. My gums became a nice lighter pink colour too.

I figure that gum disease or any dental infection/disease is an ongoing strain on the immunity so though low immunity may have caused or allowed it to happen in the first place, it's a vicious cycle that then puts more load on the immune system and it then cannot handle the other toxins as well. I found coincidentally? that my overall health seemed to improve after after a few weeks of using that product.

Bex, thankyou so much for this info, i think il order the stuff right away, its what ive been looking for, i cant find the irrigator on there though!
I think colgate total is a very good toothpaste, i went onto natural ones a couple of yrs ago, maybe that is why my gums receeded, who knows? I might try it again and rinse properly after.
Cheers Dawn x:)

Hi Dawn, no problem. You order the one-minte dental care "travel kit" one. It has the irrigator thing with it and container to keep it in and one bottle of ultimate gum solution. You start off with that one (if you want), then when you re-order, you just order however many gum solutions you want. If the irrigator breaks or whatever, you can just order another one, you won't need the box that contains it if you've already got the travel kit. It sells the irrigator alone if you need another one.

Here is the order page http://www.1stultimategumsolution.com/shop.php Scroll down to where you start seeing the travel kit one and/or the the irrigator one alone. It's up to you if you want the travel kit one, but I think it's good having the container for it.

You really need it to penetrate the gums! Literally getting to the root of the problem and then you start to see results. You can simply maintain once you get improved gums. I guess I should have always maintained it and kept to doing it once each night before bed, or at least a few nights a week, but I dropped off completely and managed to do ok, but problem is, once you get another knock to your health? usually the problems return.

I personally believe that keeping gum infection levels down, is just another strain removed from your immunity. I don't think the stuff needs to be used 3 times a day by the way. They say this on the instructions when you get it, but there is no way the stuff would last anytime at all. Two times a day was enough for me and then, as I said, just once at night to maintain it. You can stick with twice a day if you feel it's more effective.

Yep, good old colgate total! Who would have thought I'd actually go back to using toothpaste after trying to much else to no avail? I floss every night too, I think that's important.

PS, I got my ultimate gum solution in the mail today! So I am going to give it another go and see if my overall health improves by getting my gum infection under control.

I am going to do it more vigilantly and make sure I do it morning and night (more if necessary) until things improve. Then, if they do, I hope I will get away with just once at night. Though the instructions recommend doing it 3 times a day and then levelling off at just twice a day when things are controlled. I'm hoping I'll get away with a bit less than that if I can (after getting it improved). I just wish they gave more of the stuff, but they don't. So it kind of forces me to spread it out more.

If it works and my overall health improves as I suspect it's done in the past? I'll be emailing them and typing a testimony on their page and will be recommending this stuff to others. I hear that oral infection of any kind can be a hidden and big burden on immunity.

If I am certain it really is helping my entire body, then this will probably be part of my permanent regime. I just wish I could make it up myself so I didn't have to buy it lol. I'd love to know their secret!

"Receding gums" is another way of saying osteoporosis of the jawbones. Bex's recommendations sound like what I would try.
