3. Tongue Cleaning: With a copper or steel cleaner to remove toxins and maintain oral freshness.
✅ LOCAL APPLICATIONS (External Ayurvedic Care)
1. Dashan Sanskar Churna – massage gently over gums for 2–3 minutes daily; improves gum tone and arrests bleeding.
2. Clove oil + Sesame oil (1:2 ratio) – apply with a cotton bud on sensitive teeth; reduces pain and strengthens roots.
3. Triphala decoction gargle – boil 1 tsp Triphala in 1 cup water, cool slightly, and gargle twice daily for gum tightening.
4. Alum (Phitkari) water rinse – once weekly for disinfecting and reducing gum pockets.
✅ HOME REMEDIES
Mix powder of Triphala + rock salt + mustard oil into a paste and gently rub on gums once daily.
Chew tender neem sticks (Datun) occasionally to naturally clean teeth and improve gum blood flow.
Aloe vera gel application on gums helps soothe inflammation and promotes healing.
✅ DIET & LIFESTYLE TIPS
✅ Include:
Calcium-rich foods (sesame seeds, milk, almonds). Vitamin C sources (amla, lemon, guava) for gum healing. Warm water after meals to cleanse oral cavity.
❌ Avoid:
Very hot, cold, or acidic foods (can worsen sensitivity). Excess tea, coffee, and sugary foods. Hard brushing or stiff-bristle toothbrushes.

Receding gums and sensitive teeth can be a sign of gum health issues that can sometimes be addressed with the principles of Ayurveda, which focuses on maintaining balance within the body. First, consider your diet, as Agni, or digestive fire, plays a crucial role in overall health. A diet high in sugar and processed foods can aggravate these conditions. Instead, focus on fresh, whole foods that pacify Vata dosha, such as sweet, salty, and sour tastes. Include nourishing foods like cooked vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats.
For receding gums and sensitive teeth, oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic practice that can be quite beneficial. Use sesame or coconut oil, about a tablespoon, and swish it gently in your mouth for 10-20 minutes daily; ideally in the morning on an empty stomach. Avoid swallowing the oil. This practice is believed to reduce bacteria and promote oral health, potentially supporting gum health over time.
Additionally, practice gentle gum massage. You can use your fingers to gently massage the gums with a small amount of Triphala powder or a mix of turmeric and neem powder. These herbs have anti-inflammatory properties and are known in Ayurveda for promoting oral health. This should be done with care, using gentle circular motions. You might do this once a day.
Rinse your mouth with warm salt water regularly. Especially after meals. A teaspoon of natural rock salt in warm water helps to soothe the tissues and maintain the health of the gums. It can draw out inflammation and be calming.
Avoid very hard or aggressive brushing; use a soft-bristled toothbrush instead. Brushing should be gentle and not overly vigorous.
If symptoms persist or worsen, I would recommend consulting with a dentist to rule out any underlying issues and consider other treatments that might be necessary. Steady and consistent care usually helps, but professional advice can ensure there’s nothing critical being overlooked.
Do oil pulling with warm sesame oil daily Take pinch of triphala mixed with warm sesame oil and gently massage your gum finger tip Take Khadiradi vati 1-1-1
Internal Medicines 1 Triphala Churna: 1 tsp night with warm water (gum tissue repair). 2 Yashtimadhu Churna: 1 gm morning with water (soothes sensitivity). 3 Khadiradi Vati: 1 tab suck after meals (gum strength).
Daily Oral Routine 1 Oil Pulling: 10 ml Irimedadi Taila → swish 5–10 min → spit → morning empty stomach. 2 Gum Massage: Bakula + Triphala powder → finger rub on gums → 2 min → after brushing. 3 Mouth Rinse: Triphala water (1 tsp in 100 ml warm water) → after meals.
Diet Give only: Amla, pomegranate daily. Sesame seeds 1 tsp. Warm milk nightly. Avoid completely: Cold drinks, citrus, tobacco. Hard brushing.
Lifestyle No mouth breathing; use saline nasal rinse nightly. Sleep 10 PM – 6 AM.
