One of the best ways to treat your gums, can be a lot simpler. Water Pik is the brand name for a line of dental care products. Braun also makes them. Most of these high end oral irrigators use ultrasound (vibration) and bubbles to help clean plaque from under the gums. Flossing and regular brushing are also important factors in the prevention of gum disease. One alternative to the more expensive producks is a device which fits into the line of your shouwer head. There have a simple shut off valve, and while they do not provide ultrasonic vibrations to dislodge the plaque. they can apply enough force to reach the pockets aroung your teeth. combined with a vbrating toothbrush (and flossing,) this should do a good job.
