Read your query , as you have itchy gums this can be due some reasons that can be due inflamations in gums or periodontal ligaments , due to depositon of plaque and calculus at subgingival areas of gums , drug induced , medical conditions like diabetes, Nutritional deficiency, poor oral hygiene. Dont be worried so much be relaxed you should consult dentist and go for oral examination and if this is due to inflammation of gums you can discuss with your dentist and go for Oral prophylaxis. In meantime you can do is warm saline gargle two - three times a day, Use soft bristles to brush your teeth , you can use chlorhexidine mouthwash twice daily, You can take vitamin B and C supplements consulting with your local doctor.
Hope this will help you. Regards, Dr. Priyanka tiwari
