I think just massaging them in general will promote blood flow and allow the gums to swell back to their healthy state. I haven't looked for anything like this in years, but I know they used to sell rubber stimulators for the gums on the toothbrush aisle. When I had braces as a kid, I brushed my teeth way too often and had issues with receding gums. I just had to stop brushing them as often and they healed on their own. I remember even just massaging the sore area with my finger would help after a couple days.

Holy hell is it painful!
