Are home remedies for gingivitis effective?

I am a 35-year-old male with gingivitis and I want to try treating it at home. Are home remedies for gingivitis effective?

Not really.... You should seek professional help.
To help with gingivitis at home, a patient should floss, brush twice a day, and use oral rinses to reduce inflammation and bleeding. Also, see a dentist to make sure if you need a deep clean to remove the bacteria in the gums that cause gingivitis.
