Very swollen and red gums after routine dental cleaning
If it has been a while between dental cleanings; it may be that you had gingivitis and the inflammed gums need to heal. A regime of warm saline rinses may help (1/2 teaspoon salt to 8 ounces of warm water) there will be enough per mix for a few rinses. 20-30 seconds rinse expectorate (spit out) and repeat per 8 oz. Do this 3 or 4 times per day. Another factor maybe due lack of vitamins especially vit C &/or B. It is best advised if the problem persist to bring it to the attention of the clinicians which provided the service. Hope this helped and the problem resolves. Enjoy your day. READ MORE
