Last updated at 15:50 27 June 2006. A giant beetle unseen in the UK for 300 years and rare anywhere in the world has been discovered living in Llanelli. Startled workers at a furniture restorer almost smashed the bug to bits with a hammer in their fear before cooler heads prevailed.
Gum Stimulation. One way to bring blood flow to the gum area is by stimulation. You can achieve this by massaging your gums. Using your clean fingers, grasp the gum with your thumb and forefinger, and squeeze and release. Many toothbrushes have a device attached at the end that's specifically made for this purpose.
Overview. Sore and bleeding gums may be an early indication of periodontal disease and should be taken care of right away. A visit to your dentist is the first step. Adding certain foods to your diet also can help speed the healing process and improve the health of your gums. Continuing to eat these foods after your gums heal may help prevent future mouth problems as well.
