Anyway to rebuild the gum tissue, including bone,  damaged by periodontal disease?

One method is the soft tissue graft where tissue from the palate is grafted onto the gum tissue. The palate tissue is somewhat more dense than regular gum tissue; this allows the gum tissue to mix with the grafted tissue and form a stronger gum tissue, allowing for healing. Another benefit is that exposed roots can be covered to avoid further bone loss or recession.\n\nThe palate tissue itself regenerates because the tissue taken is inner tissue reached by a small incision. The palate is a permanent source of high-quality, dense, regenerating gum tissue. Personally, I had 8 of these soft tissue graft surgeries over a 2-year period. I can recommend a very excellent periodontist in the California bay area.\n\nSpeak to a periodontist for more information. \n\nTo care for teeth and gums, use a regular soft toothbrush on the teeth and use only a sulcus toothbrush on the gumline. Replace both brushes every week. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables to keep the mouth moist, and avoid alcohol and alcohol-based mouthwash which dries the mouth. Floss daily.

It really depends on how well you take care of your teeth after you realize you have it. To speed up healing time, floss 1-2 times everyday, brush 2-3 times everyday, and use Listerine. And once it goes away, follow these habits so it will not return. ANd always remember to see your dentist every 6 months.

Aloe Vera works well for healing.  For the pain, we used to put a little toothpaste on it, it works well.

Ask your dentist.  You might be able to use a removeable appliance that would be relatively inexpensive to fix a minor problem.

Floss daily. Use a sulcus toothbrush on the gum line. Use a soft toothbrush on the tooth surface. Replace brushes often.\n\nEat fresh fruits and vegetables to keep the mouth moist and avoid alcohol, smoking, and fried foods.\n\nSee a periodontist immediately.

Blahhhhh \nWhat a bunch of crap is found here\n\nThe mouth is the fastest healing part of your body, unless there is a problem.\n\nYou should not have pain.  Contact your dentist ASAP\nHe should be the first to know when you have a question.\nNo Dentist\nNot one single one, wants something they did to snowball out of control into a major infection.  \n\nCall him

Yes for these teeth you have prob. learned to late.  You can't floss every couple of days, it has to be everyday.  If you don't want more decay and rotten teeth, then floss everyday. You need to have these teeth extracted, abscessed teeth are nothing to play with, you can get seriously ill, or even die if you don't have them taken care of.  You need to learn to brush consistently and the right way.  You are not brushing as well on the lower because you are afraid of hitting the decayed teeth. You have to use a soft toothbrush and use small circular strokes with very little pressure.  You have used too much pressure on the lower, which has caused the recession.  I would suggest an electric toothbrush.  Flossing:  go in between each tooth wrap one side of the tooth like a "C" shape and wiggle up and down a few times and then do this to the other tooth in front, going all of the way around the mouth.  Again you don't have to use a lot of pressure, you don't want to injure or cut the gum tissue.  Decay is caused by bacteria and food debris which turns into acid, this causes decay.  Gingivitis and periodontitis are gum conditions.  The problem is you, you have to do the work in order to have a healthy mouth.  I know this is blunt, but you have to wake up and brush as much as possible, floss everyday, and see a dentist about your problem teeth.  Educate yourself on home care and about tooth decay and gum disease.  Use your search engine for help.

I also had this problem. The bad news is that you cant get your gum to grow back. But you can prevent from goingdown, and you can have surgery to fix it. The surgery isnt too expensive, but is kinda painful. What they do is take a patch of skin from the roof of the inside of your mouth, and put that where your gums have been receding. Then they cover it with a wax-like coat to protect it until it heals. Ask your dentist about this. Also, try Creast Mouth Wash to prevent further gum receding. \n\ngood luck!

Periodontal disease, an infection of the teeth, gums, and bone that surrounds the teeth, is the number-one cause of adult tooth loss. It begins when plaque, a sticky film of food and bacteria, builds up on your teeth. If plaque isn't removed, it hardens into calculus, also called tartar. \n\nThe buildup of plaque and tartar dramatically increases the number of harmful bacteria in your mouth and can result in deepening spaces between the teeth and gums, called pockets. Bacteria trigger the body's immune system to produce enzymes. These enzymes destroy the bone surrounding the teeth, which ultimately leads to tooth loss.\n\nYou cannot remove calculus and tartar underneath the gum.  The dental hygienist or the dentist can do that for you.  They use either the hand scalers or the ultrasonic scaler to accomplish this job.\n\nThe ultrasonic scaler consists of a wand with a small scaling tip that produces a soft ultrasonic vibration. The small, quick vibrations in combination with a water flow give us a whole new level of effectiveness in calculus removal. The benefits of ultrasonic scaling include:\n\n• Increased efficiency of calculus removal; \n• Less need for hand scaling of stubborn deposits; and \n• More comfortable access to the root surfaces, thanks to the small tip.\n\nUltrasonic scaling removes calculus and reduces the number of harmful bacteria below the gum line. It is an important tool in the prevention and treatment of periodontal disease.

What the leading cause of tooth loss?  Periodontal disease.  What's the best way to prevent periodontal disease?  Brushing twice daily AND flossing once daily.  \nBrushing removes plaque off your teeth, but the brush cannot reach in between your teeth and under your gums like floss can.  Mouthwashes do not reach these ares either.  Plaque builds up in these areas and are in close contact with your gums.  Plaque is loaded with bacteria.  If the plaque is not removed it hardens into calculus (tartar).  Calculus has a great rough surface that is perfect for bacteria to attach and infect your gums.  Eventually the bacteria can migrate into your gums and into the supporting bones and tissue that hold your teeth in place.  Eventually the teeth become loose and fall out.  Periodontitis (when the supporting tissues are infected) and gingivitis (only the gums are infected) are preventable.  So how do you know if your gums are infected already?  If your gums bleed when you brush or floss, you already have gingivitis and are one step closer to dentures.  Just think, would you allow any other part of your body to be chronically infected?\n\nI know everyone hates flossing and it's such a hassle, but it is worth it in the long run.  Would you rather take a few minutes a day to floss and keep your teeth, or be toothless and have dentures?  Some people say they never floss and their teeth are fine, well they are the lucky ones.  Everybody's mouth is different.  If you absolutely will not floss, talk to your dentist or hygienist about other interdental cleaners.  If you don't have gaps in between any of your teeth though, floss will be the best thing.  There are all kinds of floss holders and things.  I've gone on long enough.  Just remember, healthy gums do not bleed.

No, it can not be re-grown. \nYou can have a bone graft. This is done by either an Oral Surgeon, or Peritonitist.

Parsley- that's the best thing beside brushing and mouthwash. I've heard some people say chewing a piece of paper napkin works, but I've never tried it. I like Freshmint gum by Trident.

You also have to follow up at home. The dentist does not give you a miracle cure. Your gum disease has to be controlled by you at home with every day brushing and flossing

Get a second opinion.\n\nTalk to a local dentist ASAP.\n\nWhile gum disease can be attributable to many things such as diabetes, stress, and medications, the fact is that the majority of Americans who are afflicted with gum disease have nothing more to blame than a combination of poor dental hygiene, poor nutrition, and tobacco use (if you are a smoker). Gum disease is no laughing matter folks. It is a very serious and unnecessary risk to your health, not to mention your smile and ability to chew solid food into your twilight years.\n\nThe early stage of gum disease is gingivitis, where the gums redden, swell, and bleed easily, yet can be reversed with professional cleanings and proper dental hygiene. However, if left untreated, gingivitis can progress into periodontitis. Periodontitis is much more of a threat, and with time, plaque can spread below the gum line, creating a breeding ground for harmful bacteria and toxins. These toxins produce a chronic inflammatory response that cause the tissue and bone that support the teeth to be broken down and destroyed. Gums will separate from the teeth, forming pockets which can become infected by the already present bacteria. Ultimately, if no action has been taken, the resulting bone loss and infection will call for the tooth to be removed in the afflicted area.\n\nSadly, gums cannot regenerate themselves, and the bones that hold your beautiful teeth in place will not reform. But, if caught soon enough (before your teeth fall out of your head), gum disease can be stopped dead in its tracks, pockets will close up, gums will become toned and healthy, and the former threat of bone loss will no longer exist.\n\nFor a good artice "Bleeding Gums" visit:\nhttp://www.san-diego-dentist.us/san-diego-bleeding-gums-article.htm\nhttp://www.san-diego-dentist.us\nhttp://san-diego-dentists.blogspot.com\nhttp://www.san-diego-dentist.us/san-diego-dentist-tijuana-dentist.html\nhttp://www.san-diego-dentist.us/tijuana-dentist.htm\nhttp://www.san-diego-dentist.us/san-diego-dental-implants.html\nhttp://www.las-vegas-nevada-lawyer-attorney-legal-injury-defense-directory.com
