Adding Vitamins Helps Fight Gum Disease
Gingivitis is a very common type of mild gum disease. If left untreated, it can lead to more serious gum disease. Natura can help you treat it.
Gingivitis causes irritation, redness, swelling and bleeding in the part of your gums around the base of your teeth, known as the gingiva.
This double-blind study of 136bchildren between the ages of 8 and 16 gave either standard care alone or standard care plus vitamins C and D.
Bleeding sites on probing was significantly reduced in the vitamin group compared to the control group.
This study suggests that adding vitamins C and D to standard care significantly improves gingival health in children.
