The first step is to manage and eliminate the source of gingivitis. Anti-inflammatory medications to reduce pain and swelling may be prescribed. Warm saline gargles or anti-bacterial mouthwashes, are also helpful. It is essential to get the teeth cleaned professionally, to remove plaque deposits. Adequate dental hygiene may help in averting further recurrences of gingivitis and gum disease.
