I have never believed that nutrients would have any affect on gums because that is what I have read.
However, experience has proven otherwise. I have severely receded gums from years of braces, oral surgery and probably hereditary (no gum disease).
I also had large gaps between my teeth because of the receding gums which looked very unattractive. I was going to get veneers to try and hide them even though my teeth are fine.
Fortunately I delayed the appointment for 3 months because I became very ill.
During that period, I took a lot of vitamins & supplements (tumeric, krill, vitamins B, D & some others). I normally eat a fairly healthy diet.
A few days ago I was shocked when I noticed that the gaps are gone and the gum has grown considerably.
I am amazed because I thought that once gum is damaged, it cannot grow back again, but my gums have improved dramatically.
Just wait till I show my dentist.
