I visited my dentist and together we came up with a 5-step guide to curing gingivitis. I advice everyone to see their dentist if they suspect they may be suffering from gingivitis, but these 5 steps may be helpful.

What is Listerine?
Listerine contains three essential oils that kill plaque organisms: Eucalyptol, Thymol and Menthol. Clinical studies show that its liquid action reaches between the teeth and gums, killing the germs that cause plaque and gingivitis within 30 seconds of contact. Listerine is clinically proven to reduce gingivitis by up to 34% over your usual dental routine without Listerine. What also makes Listerine unique is that it is the only non-perscription mouthrinse that is recognized by the Canadian Dental Association to reduce and prevent the progression of gingivitis when used in proper oral hygiene regimen.
