mouth gums in bad shape

[Guest guest]

I just got back from the dentist. He claims that my gums are in bad shape;

that I have lost bone etc. He wants to do some sort of gum surgery and

pronto. I don't like being rushed into anything so i decided to do some

research first.

Anybody have any suggetions for gum health?

I read somewhere that cranberries are good for the gums, but it was in a

magazine article and not from a reputable source.
