Bleeding Gums and Gum Disease

Gingivitis is characterized by gum redness, changes in the gum,, and bleeding. It is essentially painless.

It is created when plague (sticky deposits of bacteria, mucus and food particles) adheres to the teeth, hardens and irritates the gum.

The accumulation of this plague causes the gums to become infected and swollen. As the gums swell, pockets form between the gums and the teeth and act as a trap for more plague. Irritated gums bleed and eventually start to recede.

Irritation can be fought by introducing Vitamin C which fights the formation of plaque.

What to do about gum disease problems:

Gum problems need to be addressed before they get worse and become periodontal disease - something that can create loose teeth and a lot of health problems due to the bacteria that comes with it.

The key dietary recommendation on gum problems is to avoid sugar. Sugar is known to significantly increase plaque accumulation by feeding the bacteria that cause the infection while decreasing white blood cell function.

Phase out soft drinks. Canned soda contains excess phosphorus, a mineral that could lead to the leeching of calcium from your bones. Calcium is first robbed not from your hips or spine but from you jaw leading to tooth loss.

Deficiencies of vitamin C, bioflavonoids, calcium, folic acid, or niacin is related and can make it worse

Anything that improves health overall and the body's ability to resist disease will affect the mouth positively.

Fresh fruits, and vegetables, whole grains, and fiber should be the mainstay of the menu. Vegetables & fruits enhance enzyme function. fermented dairy products, such as yogurt help maintain intestinal health. Calcium gotten either from milk or vegetables. However, calcium is easier for the body to digest via vegetables.

Vitamin C is one nutrient thought to have a very positive effect on the mouth. Vitamin C is vital for production of collagen, the basic protein building block for the fibrous framework of all the tissues, including gums.

Vitamin C strengthens weak gum tissue and makes the gum lining more resistant to penetration by bacteria.

A good form of Vitamin C that is easy for the body to use as it is whole food nutrition. This WSN® Vitamin C should be taken per directions or twice the recommended for gum problems. For more info (This really is a different type of C)

Calcium is needed to restore any deficiencies which can result in periodontal disease. Periodontal disease and gum disorders are forms of osteoporosis of the mouth.

It is essential to stop using or consuming items that cause calcium to become deficient and or toxic. This includes products such as ice cream, fruit yogurt, tea, coffee, cigarettes and aluminum.

Natural Toothpaste

The major cause of all gum, tooth and breath problems are the overproduction of plaque bacteria and pathogens in the mouth... a solution was stopping this bacteria from forming while at the same time being almost impossible to wash away, then it would have a extremely successful solution on my hands!

The creator of Pro Dental 7 says this:

I started researching countless books and websites when one day I came across an important document I found in an old medical journal; it explained how certain plant extracts could completely kill multiple strains of bacteria in the mouth, in under 30 seconds... I excitedly ordered all the extracts and immediately began my experiments!

After about 5-6 weeks of formulating different solutions, I'd finished, I'd created a extremely powerful solution that would potentially kill the all harmful bacteria and penetrate deep down inside the gum tissue... I also made sure the solution wasn't water soluble (unlike all the other products I'd tried in the past) so it wouldn't wash away!

I brushed my teeth with the new solution and 'WOW' my entire mouth felt great; after just 2 weeks of use I was amazed; my gum infection had cleared up nicely ...

But that's when I noticed something else had happened, something quite special; My teeth were gleaming white, my bad breath was gone, and my gums looked healthy.

"i never get bad breath anymore, my gums no longer bleed when i brush them and they are now pink and healthy"

"guess what? I don't need to see the hygienist. The dentist said that my mouth seems to have had a miraculous recovery"
