I brush twice a day, floss before bed; and rinse with Listerine.
About 3 weeks ago my gums started to turn red a swell, and ever since it has become increasingly difficult to floss. My gums will commonly bleed now when I brush & floss. It appears to be gingivitis, but I'm not sure why I'm getting it if I brush/floss regularly, and rinse with a mouthwash said to fight gingivitis specifically. I wear a positioner (had to stop because of swelling) if that makes any difference.
Any idea on what might be going on?
