What vitamin can I take for healthy gums?

Carrots! You don't need to take pills (of any kind) to have healthy gums. All you need to do is eat crisp, hard foods, like carrots. They massage the gums naturally, and help keep them healthy.





Regular brushing and flossing should be done daily as well.

Reply:Scurvy (which can cause unhealthy gum and teeth) is cured by regular consumption of Vitamin C. So i would guess that Vitamin C would have something to do with it ;)
Reply:Vit.C tabs or citrusfruits which are rich in this vitamin. Even Amla(gooseberry) is very rich in vit.c.

If you have a balanced diet with plenty of fruit and vegetables you will already have normal vitamin levels. If you take more than this water soluble vitamins are just peed out, though there are some concerns that Vitamin C doses above 500mgs/day may be carcinogenic, and fat soluble vitamins will accumulate, some being toxic like A and D.
Reply:The only vitamin with a direct effect on gum health is vitamin C. In extreme cases of vit C deficiency bleeding gums occurs, but taking extra vit C for someone on a normal diet does not improve gum health.





The correct (and only) way to prevent gum problems is by using good oral hygiene techniques including brushing, flossing and other techniques for particular circumstances.





If a person has unhealthy gums it is because they do not clean their teeth properly. People don't want to hear this, but it's true. Gum disease is caused by the bacteria that live on the tooth surface - the removal of these bugs protects the gums.





No magic prevention or cure, then. Just common sense.
