GMoney Anchor - What is nutritional gingivitis?

Dr. Arusha Bhansali – Nutritional gingivitis is primarily caused by a deficiency of vitamin C. In this condition, you may notice redness and slight swelling of your gums. Sometimes, it may seem like it’s a bit too much, but it can often be resolved with vitamin C intake. So, it’s crucial to visit your dentist for evaluation.

GMoney Anchor - Does this condition affect the entire body, or is it limited to the gums and oral health?

Dr. Arusha Bhansali – Vitamin D deficiency can significantly impact the whole body. So, if you observe any skin problems alongside gum problems, consult your doctor for a thorough evaluation.

GMoney Anchor - What are the common symptoms of nutritional gingivitis?

Dr. Arusha Bhansali – Symptoms often include puffiness and redness around the gums, along with bleeding when brushing teeth. People sometimes get alarmed when they notice bleeding gums, but it can be as minor as a vitamin C deficiency, which is nutritionally related.

GMoney Anchor - Is this condition more common in children or adults?

Dr. Arusha Bhansali – Nutritional gingivitis can affect people of all ages. It’s not limited to any specific age group.

GMoney Anchor - Is it a rare disease, or is it quite common?

Dr. Arusha Bhansali – It’s relatively common since it’s associated with vitamin C deficiency, which can result from inadequate dietary intake. Vitamin C is water-soluble, so you need to replenish it regularly.

GMoney Anchor - Sometimes, you can find vitamin C supplements in medical shops. Is that a good idea?

Dr. Arusha Bhansali – If the deficiency is severe, supplements can be useful initially. However, long-term reliance on supplements might not be the best solution, as absorption-related issues could be causing the deficiency. Natural sources of vitamin C, like fruits (e.g., oranges and guavas), are readily available and recommended.

GMoney Anchor - If I were to ask you about the ideal diet to follow, what should we include in our diet for better gum health?

Dr. Arusha Bhansali – Including vitamin C-rich foods in your diet is essential. You can incorporate items like okra (ladyfinger), oranges, sweet limes, and Amla (Indian gooseberry). Consuming Amla juice on an empty stomach in the morning can be beneficial. Additionally, fruits are great for your skin, and ginger can help control gum problems. It’s also crucial to maintain good dental hygiene to prevent related issues, as gingivitis is often interconnected with oral hygiene.
