For people with gum disease only, if you know the answer, please answer.?

OK PEOPLE WIT GUM DISEASE, WHEN U TRY USING LISTERINE...DID IT HELP? DID U TRY USING HYDROGEN PEROXIDE WITH LISTERINE? DID THAT HELP? LASTLY, WHEN U USED ONLY HYDROGEN PEROXIDE...DID THAT MAKE IT STOP? O AN I MEAN PUFFY GUM DISEASE, NOT GINGIVITIS, THANK U!

Listerine did help but you still need to go and have teeth cleaned and go to a peridentist. they know how to get under the gum and clean well. Good Luck.

1) go see your dentist and/or hygienist for a cleaning. They can prescribe you a fluoride rinse that can help your gum disease.

2) Buy a water pick. Most bacteria hide in the pockets in your gum line next to your teeth and Listerine and Hydrogen Peroxide can't get in there. Use the water pick to slowly work the bacteria out each day and it will help out GREATLY. I used to have the second stage of gum disease and my dentist told me to use the water pick, fluoride rinse (Rx) and crest alcohol free rinse. I actually need light cleanings now because I've gotten my gums into much better shape!

if you have been diagnosed with periodontal disease, NOT gingivitis, you will always have periodontal disease.. you can't regain the lost bone, tissue or reverse the damage. listerine or even crest pro-health rinse (which contains flouride) can help you maintain the gums, bone and teeth, by ridding some bacteria. you can use hydrogen peroxide, but use half water and half hydrogen peroxide... if you use full strength hydrogen peroxide, studies have indicated it could cause oral cancer (low chances, but it's still a possibility)
