What is good for sore gums from dentures?
You need to check with the dentist if you have some extra pressure points or there are sharp bones after old extractions. If the pressure points are reduced, they will not be painful. It will always be a bit of pressure with new prothese, it takes 2weeks-3 months to get used to it. And, of course, hygiene is very important. READ MORE

Unfortunately there is no space to floss with braces. What I recommend is a micro brush that is going in the small spaces in between the teeth. It is made by Interprox or GUM, hairs or plastic.

Superficially, you can use a fluoride medicament-dentist or consume more vit D if it is sensitive. Other possibility is to receive a filling over against sensitivity. And, if it is from too harsh brushing, change the technique and a soft brush. If parodontitis, maybe a specialist can help further. READ MORE
