15 Simple Remedies to Alleviate Gum Disease Symptoms

4. Myrrh oil

Pure essential oils have many healing benefits for the whole body. Using Myrrh oil to treat gum disease works because this particular oil is an antiseptic, which has antibacterial properties. It is recommended to add ten drops of Myrrh oil into a cup of warm water and use it as a mouth rinse, or you can also mix equal portions of Myrrh and Echinacea as a mouth rinse. With both, repeat the process once or twice a day for a few days, or until you find some relief to gum discomfort and pain.
