“Can medications fix gingivitis?”

Medications alone typically do not fix gingivitis, but they can be part of a comprehensive treatment plan. Here are some steps typically involved in treating gingivitis: 1) professional teeth cleaning to remove plaque buildup on the teeth and gums, 2) improved oral hygiene including regular brushing (at least twice a day) and flossing (at least once a day), 3) lifestyle changes such as quitting smoking, eating a balanced diet, and managing conditions like diabetes. Something you can use at home that may help reduce gingivitis is an antimicrobial mouthwash, like Listerine.

The most simple solution for gingivitis is brushing and flossing daily and going to your cleanings at the dentist. Gingivitis is a reversible process.

In some cases with early gingivitis, after a thorough cleaning by a dental hygienist or your dentist, and then the application of toothbrush, dental floss, perhaps a water pik, and the right toothpaste, your gingivitis can be arrested and will not progress. Everyone has a slight degree of gingivitis, which is chronic, but the need is to prevent the gingivitis to progress to the retraction of critical gum tissue, or to periodontitis. The addition of a slight change in diet will be helpful, eating fruits containing Vit. C such as strawberries, oranges or orange juice, or pineapple juice or grapes, raisins, or grapejuice every day (the human body stores vitamins A, D, E, K for longer periods but you need Vit. C every day). Avoid alcohol as much as possible. Eat a balanced diet. Brush your teeth immediately after every meal. See your dentist every 6 months for a checkup and a scheduled cleaning. There are no actual pill medications that will prevent or cure gingivitis. DENTIST
