Key Supplements

  • CoQ10 100-200mg/day (gum health—deficiency linked to periodontitis, supplementing reduces bleeding, inflammation, improves healing), Vitamin C 1000mg 2-3x/day (collagen synthesis—gums, antioxidant, immune function, deficiency causes bleeding gums), Vitamin D3 5000 IU (immune modulation, anti-inflammatory, deficiency linked to worse gum disease), Omega-3 (EPA/DHA) 2-4g/day (anti-inflammatory, reduces gum inflammation, improves outcomes), Vitamin K2 MK-7 100-200mcg (bone health—prevents bone loss around teeth), Calcium 1000mg + Magnesium 400-600mg (bone health), Zinc 30mg (immune function, wound healing), Vitamin A 5000-10,000 IU (mucous membranes, immune), Probiotics (oral strains—Lactobacillus reuteri, L. salivarius, reduces pathogenic bacteria, improves gum health), Xylitol (gum, mints, or powder—inhibits Streptococcus mutans, reduces plaque, 5-10g/day), Folic Acid 800mcg (some studies show topical or oral folic acid improves gum health), Green Tea Extract (EGCG—antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, improves gum health), Curcumin 500mg 2x/day (anti-inflammatory), Grape Seed Extract 100-300mg (antioxidant, strengthens capillaries—reduces bleeding), Vitamin E 400 IU (antioxidant, healing), Topical/Rinse: Aloe Vera gel (anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial—massage into gums), Tea Tree Oil (diluted 2-3 drops in water—antimicrobial rinse, don't swallow), Ozonated water rinse (antimicrobial—disrupts biofilm), Hydrogen peroxide rinse (3% diluted 1:1 with water—antimicrobial, but don't use long-term—can damage tissue), Salt water rinse (reduces inflammation, promotes healing), Herbal mouthwash (myrrh, peppermint, sage, echinacea—antimicrobial), Clove oil (topical—antimicrobial, pain relief)

Key Lab Markers

  • Periodontal examination (probing depths—measure pocket depth around each tooth, >3mm indicates gum disease, >5mm advanced, bleeding on probing), X-rays (bone loss around teeth—shows severity of periodontitis), Clinical exam (gum color, swelling, recession, tooth mobility), Bacterial testing (DNA testing—identifies specific pathogens, guides treatment), Vitamin C (deficiency causes bleeding gums), Vitamin D, CoQ10 (if available), Omega-3 Index, HbA1c (diabetes screening—gum disease worse in diabetics), Inflammatory markers (hs-CRP), CBC, Comprehensive metabolic panel, Screen for systemic connections: Cardiovascular (gum disease linked to heart disease—hs-CRP, lipids, consider cardiology consult if severe gum disease), Diabetes (check HbA1c, fasting glucose), Autoimmune (if suspected—ANA, RF, other autoantibodies)
