Gingivitis is a very common and mild form of gum disease. It is basically a mild infection of the gums. Anyone can develop gingivitis and many people are not even aware that they have it. Its common symptoms include irritation, redness, swelling and puffiness of the gums. Other symptoms include bad breath, loose teeth, receding gums, and gums that become tender and bleed, especially while brushing or flossing. The most common cause of gingivitis is poor oral hygiene, which allows plaque to form on the teeth. Plaque is an invisible, sticky film composed of bacteria that can irritate the gums as well as the teeth. Some factors that can increase the risk of gingivitis are excessive smoking, use of tobacco, age, diabetes, certain medications, crooked teeth, ill-fitting dental restorations, broken fillings, pregnancy, genetics, compromised immunity, dry mouth and a poor diet. If left untreated, gingivitis can become serious and lead to severe infection known as periodontitis and even tooth loss. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, gingivitis is also associated with an increased risk of diabetes, heart attack and lung disease. It also increases the risk of premature delivery in pregnant women. Good oral health habits—brushing at least twice a day, flossing daily and getting regular dental checkups—can help prevent gingivitis. Your dentist may recommend additional oral health practices particular to your needs. Along with good oral hygiene, you can use some simple home remedies to treat and prevent gingivitis. Here are the top 10 ways to get rid of gingivitis. Salt Salt is a very effective remedy for gingivitis due to its antiseptic and antibacterial properties. It can help treat swollen and inflamed gums. Plus, it draws infection out of any abscesses and inhibits the growth of bacteria in the mouth. - Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt to a glass of lukewarm water. Use this homemade saline solution to rinse your mouth once each morning and once each evening until the swelling of your gums is reduced. - Alternatively, mix 1/2 teaspoon of salt with enough mustard oil to make a paste. Use this paste to massage the gums using circular strokes for 1 or 2 minutes. Gargle with warm water. Repeat this treatment 2 or 3 times daily for a few days. Turmeric Turmeric contains curcumin, which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Curcumin can effectively reduce plaque, pain, swelling and inflammation in the gums. Plus, it can reduce bacterial activity to prevent infection. A study published in the Journal of Indian Society of Periodontology also found turmeric mouthwash to be effective as an adjunct to mechanical plaque control to prevent plaque and gingivitis, thanks to its anti-plaque, anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties comparable to that of a traditional chlorexidine mouthwash. - Make a paste of 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and mustard oil. Apply it on your teeth and gums and massage twice daily. - Alternatively, mix 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric powder with a little water or vitamin E oil to make a gum pack. Apply it to your gums and leave it on for 10 minutes before rinsing with warm water. Follow this treatment at least once daily for a few weeks. - Another option is make a paste of some turmeric powder and a little water, scoop it up with a soft-bristle toothbrush and brush your teeth with it. Do this twice daily for at least a few weeks. Oil Pulling Oil pulling is a popular Ayurvedic practice that can help reduce bacteria that cause gingivitis. It can reduce plaque, strengthen gums and help maintain good oral health. - Put 1 tablespoon of sesame oil or coconut oil in your mouth. - Swish it in your mouth and through your teeth for 15 to 20 minutes. - Spit it out and then rinse your mouth thoroughly with warm water. - Do this each morning before brushing your teeth for about a month. Note: Do not gargle or swallow the oil. Baking Soda Baking soda is a popular gingivitis home remedy. It neutralizes the acids in the mouth, thereby reducing the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Plus, it works as a natural antiseptic to help prevent infections. - Mix 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda with a bit of warm water to make a paste. - Apply this paste to the gums. - Leave it on for 1 or 2 minutes and then rinse it off with warm water. - Use this treatment 2 or 3 times a week. Lemon Juice Lemons contain antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that help treat gum disease. Plus, they contain vitamin C, which can help fight off infection. - Mix the juice of a lemon in a glass of warm water. Use this solution as a mouthwash after brushing your teeth. Do this twice daily to soothe bleeding and receding gums caused by gingivitis. - Another option is to mix a little salt with 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice to make a paste. Apply this paste on your gums and leave it on for a few minutes before rinsing it off with warm water. Repeat the process 4 or 5 times a day until you see improvement. Aloe Vera Aloe vera has antibacterial and antifungal properties that are very effective against gingivitis. It can prevent the accumulation of bacteria that cause plaque leading to gingivitis. Plus, it can relieve pain and soothe inflamed teeth and gums. - Break open an aloe vera leaf and extract the pulp. - Rub the pulp directly on the affected gums. - Leave it on for 10 minutes and then gargle with cold water. - Repeat a few times daily until the condition subsides.

Upala desni i gingivitis – uzroci, simptomi i liječenje Što je uzrok pojave upale desni? Postoje razni faktori koji mogu utjecati na pojavu upale desni, ali oni najčešći su: slaba oralna higijena, zubne naslage, pušenje, nedovoljan unos vitamina i minerala, dijabetes, hormonalne promjene (posebno u periodima puberteta, menopauze, trudnoće, menstruacije), kao i stres i veoma često nasljedni faktori. Imajte u vidu da ukoliko ste pušač i ukoliko generalno vodite lošu higijenu o svojim zubima imate velike šanse da dobijete gingivitis. Još jedan od najčešćih uzroka gingivitisa je alergija na kemikalije koje se nalaze u vašoj pasti za zube, kao što je natrij lauril sulfat. Koji su to najčešći tipovi gingivitisa? Najčešći tip upale desni je gingivitis simpleks koji se naziva i gingivitisom prljavih usta od kojeg boluje skoro 95% stanovništva. U ovoj vrsti upale desni plak izgleda kao mekana, žućkasta promjena koja se nalazi tik uz rubove zubnog mesa. Ukoliko ga ne vidite golim okom to ne znači da ne postoji i da ne bi trebalo povesti više računa o zubima ili pak posjetiti zubara. Ova upala počinje pričvršćivanjem ostataka proteina iz hrane na površinu zuba, koja u tom slučaju postaje plodno tlo za razvijanje bakterija. Ukoliko se na vrijeme ne posjeti stomatološka ordinacija i ne učini nešto konkretno na planu liječenja, nastaje akutni nekrotični ulcerozni gingivitis koji je drugi po redu najčešći vid upale desni, koji se prilično teško liječi i veoma često razvija u ulcerozni parodontitis. Najčešće počinje u mladosti, u stresnim situacijama ili u hladnijem dijelu godine. Od ostalih vidova gingivitisa postoje i tipovi karakteristični za trudnoću i pubertet koji nastaju pod utjecajem hormona. Kako izgledaju najraniji simptomi gingivitisa? Upalu desni karakterizira jača ili slabija upala tkiva oko zuba. Na početku ćete primjetiti prvo blago crvenilo, a kasnije skoro bordo boje. Tkivo oko Vaših zuba će početi boljeti i oticati, a vjerojatno i krvariti čak i na najmanji dodir. Kako se liječi upala desni? Prvi koraci ka izlječenju upale desni jeste da se ukloni ono što je izazvalo samu iritaciju. Na taj način ćete sprečiti dalje razvijanje bakterija i produženje upalnog procesa. U ovim slučajevima se od lijekova uglavnom uzimaju antibiotici, a u ekstremnim oblicima gingivitisa i primjena metronidazola. Kakve posljedice gingivitisa mogu biti ukoliko se ne liječi na vrijeme? Gingivitis koji je zanemaren ili nije otkriven na vrijeme može oštetiti tkivo koje drži zube u vilici i koji će vremenom zbog njega olabaviti. Ono što je vrlo vjerojatno da će se dogoditi u tom slučaju jeste da dođe do paradentoze i da zubi počnu masovno ispadati. Od onih najekstremnijih posljedica ne liječenja ginigvitisa bismo izdvojili povećani rizik od srčanog i moždanog udara, kao i od preranog porođaja. Prevencija upale desni i gingivitisa Za kraj vam poklanjamo par savjeta kako možete sprečiti pojavu upale desni: - Redovno perite zube kvalitetnom četkicom i koristite zubni konac nakon svakog obroka. - Uzimajte što više namirnica bogatim vitaminom C (kao što su sirovo narančasto voće i crveno povrće), kalcijem i drugim mineralnima. - Pokušajte izbaciti iz prehrane sve namirnice koje sadrže bijelo brašno i bijeli šećer. - Svakih šest meseci idite kod zubara na redovan pregled i čišćenje zuba. - Poslije pranja zuba masirajte desni prstom bar desetak minuta. - Pomiješajte sodu bikarbonu i malo hidrogena kako biste napravili pastu za zube sa djelotvornim antiseptičkim djelovanjem. - Ispirite usta čajem od kamilice ili listova crvene žalfije svakog dana. - Više se izlažite suncu ili uzimajte vitamin D kroz hranu i suplemente. - Prestanite sa upotrebom nikotina i alkohola.
