    How To Prevent It

    Gum disease is easily avoided. It only calls for proper oral hygiene. If the disease has only started to develop, it can still be treated by brushing the teeth properly and cleaning it using dental floss. Some of the nutritional supplements recommended to prevent gum disease from forming are folic acids for rinsing. Vitamin C, Coenzyme Q10, and Calcium are also needed to keep the gums and the teeth healthy and strong.

    Gum Disease Herbal Remedies

    There are actually several herbal remedies available to treat gum disease. Although the use of these gum disease herbal remedies still needs more scientific proof, there have been reports where these herbal remedies were successful in treating the disease symptoms. Below are samples of these herbal remedies that have shown a little success in treating gum disease:

    * Bloodroot
    Herbal remedies can be made out of the herb, bloodroot which contains high concentrations of alkaloids, especially the alkaloid, sanguinarine. Alkaloids are sometimes added in toothpastes and other oral hygiene products since they have an inhibiting factor against oral bacteria. Bloodroot herbal remedies may be used to treat gum disease. Also, you could use toothpaste or mouth wash that contains the chief alkaloid found in bloodroot herbal remedies, Sanguiranine.

    In one study, bloodroot herbal remedies are said to work well when accompanied with zinc lozenges. Some toothpaste sold today contains alkaloids from bloodroot and zinc as they help reduce gum disease.
    * Sage Oil, Peppermint Oil, Menthol Chamomile, Echinacea, Myrrh, Clove, Caraway
    Other important herbal remedies that can be used to treat gum disease are a mixture composed of a variety of alkaloid-rich herbs. In cases of acute gum inflammation, herbalists often prescribe herbal remedies containing 0.5 ml of the herbal mixture in a half a glass of water three times daily.

    How to Use

    Liquid herbal remedies should be swished slowly in the mouth to make sure that all its active constituents reach all corners of the mouth and teeth. After some minutes, spit out the mixture. To prevent recurrences, the mixture may be used in diluted amounts every once in a while.
