has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Thus, it works
as pain reliever and also helps disinfect your mouth.
1. Grind a few cloves to get ½ teaspoon of the powder.
2. Mix a few drops of olive oil in the ground cloves.
3. Apply it around your sore gums.
4. Wait 5 minutes, then rinse it off with lukewarm water.
5. Repeat twice daily until you can wear your dentures without
discomfort.
3. Black Tea Bags
To successfully reduce gum pain caused by dentures, use a black
tea bag. Black tea is full of tannic acid, an astringent that helps
reduce pain as well as swelling of the gums. Tannic acid also
repels bad bacteria.
1. Steep a black tea bag in a cup of hot water for 5 minutes.
2. Remove the tea bag and set it aside to cool off.
3. Hold it on the affected gum area for 10 to 15 minutes.
4. Rinse your mouth with lukewarm water.
5. Repeat once or twice daily for a few days.
Do not eat or drink anything except water before and during this
treatment.
4. Turmeric
To reduce gum pain, you can use turmeric for its pain-relieving
properties. The compound curcumin in turmeric has antioxidant
and anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce pain, swelling
and inflammation of the gums. It can even prevent the growth of
harmful bacteria in the mouth.
