Hormonal changes in women increase senitivity and may also lead to the occurance of gingivitis.

Munching foods like apples, pears, carrots or celery after brushing can help in preventing discoloration as they trigger tooth-bathing saliva which helps in keeping the teeth whiter. 

Swelling can be lessened by placing a cold compress. Take all medication prescribed by doctors.

Massaging your gums daily with eucalyptus or peppermint oil in a circular motion throughout the mouth will increase the blood activation and will keep your gums healthy and safe. 

Filling your stomach full before the root canal treatment is surely a good idea because the process sometimes takes as long as 3 hours.

You can exercise for healthier gums as well. Gently bite down so as to make sure that your teeth make a clinking sound when they meet. Repeat this 30 to 40 times continously. This exercise will stimulate the flow of blood and will keep your gums healthy.

WISH YOU VERY HAPPY, PROSPEROUS AND POLLUTION FREE DIWALI

Swelling will get bigger for 24 hours, Use ice pack on cheek next to the surgical site (for 24 hours only)

Soft drinks, cordials and fruit juices should be consumed in a limited quantity because they are acidic in nature. Acidic food or drinks often soften the tooth material which leads to the dissolution of minerals into the tooth enamel, resulting in cavities (holes).
