A painless but gradually increasing gum growth is most commonly due to localized gum overgrowth (gingival hyperplasia), fibroma, or a reactive swelling. Even with good hygiene, it can still occur. What you should do: Continue gentle brushing with a soft brush Avoid trauma (no toothpicks, no aggressive flossing in that area) At home: Warm salt water gargle 2–3 times daily Clove or neem water rinse can help reduce mild inflammation Khadiradi vati – suck 1 tablet 2–3 times daily Triphala churna – ½ teaspoon at bedtime Most important: Since it is increasing in size, you should visit a dentist. You may need: Professional cleaning (scaling), or Minor removal/biopsy if it’s a fibrous growth Early check avoids complications. Regards, Dr Raghuveer (Ayurvedacharya)
Consulting the ayurvedic shalakya ent specialist for better examination and treatment
1. Immediate Steps & Dental Consultation Since you have never visited a dentist, this is the most critical first step. Even if it doesn’t hurt, a professional must check for: Local Irritants: Deep-seated tartar (calculus) under the gum line that causes the body to grow extra tissue as a reaction. Fibrous Growths: Benign growths like a “Pyogenic Granuloma” or “Epulis” which are common and easily treatable but won’t go away with medicine alone. Medication Side Effects: Sometimes, blood pressure or anti-seizure medications cause this, though you mentioned being generally healthy. 2. Ayurvedic Oral Hygiene (Kavala & Gandusha) To slow the growth and improve gum health, you can start these traditional practices: *Triphala Gaggulu (Mouth Wash): Boil 1 teaspoon of Triphala Churna in a glass of water, strain it, and use it as a lukewarm mouthwash twice a day. *Irimedadi Taila (Oil Pulling):Take 1 tablespoon of the oil, swish it in your mouth for 5–10 minutes, and spit it out. *Manjistha Churna: Applying a paste of Manjistha and honey directly to the growth for 10 minutes before rinsing
