Kate;
Most gum problems can be cleared up with Vitamin C. Old Sailors always called it scurvy and fresh fruit would help them recover from it. Now you can mega dose on C and notice a big difference in a couple days.
The esper C is neutral ph and doesn't irritate your stomach.
Some of what I have read on vitamin C and the volume that people doing research have taken is amazing. It doesn't build up in the body but is just disposed of if the body doesn't need it.
Anyway, you might have a look at it.
