Great your gum disease was found early and corrected. I had a similar experience, and have to admit I didn't really know about flossing ... and in my 40's it was found I had the early stages of gum disease. Like you a deep scale and plan was needed and my gums are now amazing. I do have minor permanent bone loss and gum recession ... but now my gums are a soft pink and in excellent health.

Wax and warm salt water rinses should soon sort out your gum irritations and this journey be pain free!

I've been wearing elastics for nearly two years and they're amazing. They have done great movement work with my teeth and never caused any problems.

Take care!
