  Prompt treatment usually reverses symptoms of gingivitis and prevents it from leading to more-serious gum disease and tooth loss. […] Professional gingivitis care includes: […] Dental cleaning. Your first professional cleaning will include the removal of all traces of plaque, tartar and bacterial products. This procedure is known as scaling and root planing. Scaling removes tartar and bacteria from the surface of your teeth and under your gums. Root planing removes the bacterial products produced by swelling and irritation, and it smooths the root surfaces. This discourages further buildup of tartar and bacteria, and it allows proper healing. The procedure may be done using instruments, a laser or an ultrasonic device. […] Ongoing care. Gingivitis usually clears up after a thorough professional cleaning as long as you continue good oral care at home. Your dentist will help you plan an effective at-home program and a schedule of regular checkups and cleaning. […] If you follow your dentist’s suggestions and regularly brush and floss your teeth, healthy gum tissue should return within days or weeks.

  You’ve probably heard of gum disease, or gingivitis (thanks, mouthwash ads), and you know it’s bad. But you might not know exactly what it means—and what can happen if it’s ignored. […] Yes, you do need to care. We all do. Gingivitis is a mild and reversible form of gum disease, but if it’s ignored in its early stages, it can turn into a severe, irreversible form called periodontitis that can result in tooth loss and require surgical intervention. […] If you have gingivitis that’s advanced enough, a typical dental cleaning won’t be helpful, because it doesn’t go far enough below the gum line. It can actually be harmful by allowing bacteria to remain trapped where brushing and flossing can’t reach. […] That’s where “non-surgical gum treatment” comes in. During this treatment, your dental hygienist removes plaque and tartar underneath your gums, in areas that can’t be accessed during a typical cleaning.

  In chronic gingivitis, brushing with a fluoride dentifrice will slow disease progression and may help resolution. Most electric toothbrushes have additional benefit over manual brushing. Daily flossing in addition to brushing will reduce plaque and bacterial counts. Recent studies show that brushing followed by rinsing with chlorhexidine or other solutions may have even better results over brushing and flossing. […] Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been shown to speed the resolution of inflammation when teeth are being cleaned and scaled to remove plaque.

In the future, antibiotics also may be used to treat simple chronic gingivitis, but no current evidence exists to justify this practice. Treatment of gingivitis may be warranted if dental surgery is planned. […] Patients with ANUG should be given a strong analgesic along with topical anesthetics and NSAIDs because pain control is very important in allowing the patient to eat and carry out toothbrushing, flossing, and other oral hygiene maneuvers necessary to eradicate the disease. NSAIDs also help to decrease pain.
