Question:
Back last year in November 2010 my bottom gums just on one side between 2 teeth were red and swollen. They bled but stopped.
I went to my dentist and they said it was just from brushing. It never went away they are still red and swollen although have not bled since. The dentist did Xrays and gave me a medicated mouthwash and still no improvement.
I went to a Perodontist and by then my top gums were getting inflamed and bleeding. But eventually it went away. Now just my upper gums on 2 spots on 1 side are still red and painful while the botttom gum has stayed red also.
He didn't find anything wrong with my teeth or my gums. He said they were healthy with no plague. He said it could be hormonal or stress related? ...Visitor from CA
