Brief Answer:
Go for gum treatment
Detailed Answer:
Hi again,
Thanks for getting back to me.
If you still have the problem of sore gums even after quitting nicotine gums then probably you need gum treatment that includes deep subgingival scaling.
It will remove the remaining plaque and calculus from your gums and give better results.
In the meantime, you may do gum massage and consult a periodontist for gum treatment.
Hope I answered your query, feel free to ask further.
Wishing you a good health
Kind regards
Dr. Neha Sumra
