Are you seeing red? When you floss or brush your teeth, that is….

If you are experiencing “pink in the sink” when you spit out your toothpaste, or blood on your dental floss, take heed. People mistakenly think this is a sign that they are brushing hard/well or flossing efficiently, but bleeding gums is actually a symptom of gingivitis, and it is a warning sign that your gums need serious attention.

Dentists estimate that 80% of us develop gum disease in our lifetimes, ranging from mild gingivitis to severe periodontitis. If left untreated, however, gum disease may progress to other oral health issues, including tooth loss (it’s the #1 reason for adult tooth loss!). Other studies and experts, including Dr. Oz, have also linked gum disease to heart disease, stroke, breast cancer and respiratory diseases, such as COPD.

While it can happen to anyone, the following raise the risk for developing gingivitis:

§ Poor dental hygiene

§ Pregnancy/puberty/menopause (hormonal changes increase the sensitivity of the gums)

§ Uncontrolled diabetes

§ Genetics/family history (30% of general population susceptible to gum disease)

§ Smoking

§ Stress

§ Medications

§ General illness

Gingivitis is due to the long-term effects of plaque deposits, and it is often painless, so bleeding gums may be your only symptom until it has progressed further along (other symptoms are swollen/tender gums, receding gums, and/or persistent bad breath). Luckily, one of the early warning signs of the gum inflammation IS the bleeding you see when you brush or floss, so it is your body’s way of telling you something’s not right. If you have a family history of this issue or notice bleeding when you brush or floss, you should schedule a dental visit to evaluate your condition, as well as take steps at home by adding The Natural Dentist Healthy Gums Anti-Gingivitis Rinse to your oral care regimen.

The Natural Dentist Healthy Gums Mouth Rinse is clinically proven to:

• Reduce and prevent bleeding gums
• Protects against gingivitis
• Kill germs
• Reduces plaque
• Freshens breath
• Contains Aloe Vera gel as its active ingredient to help prevent bleeding gums
• Also contains other natural medicinal components such as Echinacea, goldenseal, calendula, and grapefruit seed extract that help calm gum inflammation

My Review

I love that all the ingredients are natural, and most of the ingredients,  I use anyway.  Like Grapefruit Seed Extract.  I have been using that on my thrush along with the Goldenseal.  Take a look at all the ingredients and you will see there is nothing there to hurt you.  All good natural stuff.  

I have been using this every morning and throughout the day.  I really makes my mouth feel fresh and clean.  And since it has the grapefruit seed extract and goldenseal, I know it is killing fungus.... and boy do I have fungus.     This seems to clean my tongue a little so it must be taking some of the fungus away.   Once I get rid of it completely, I would like to continue to use this or possibly one of the other products that Natural Dentist sells to hopefully keep the thrush under control.

One thing I do notice is after using it, my teeth feel cleaner.   The freshness seems to last for quite awhile too.  When I use it, I do swish it for about 10 minutes though, trying to make sure I get all the bacteria out of my teeth and mouth.
