Rayna 4 Posted June 5, 2013 Anyone experience sensitive gums? I am 6 weeks post op and it appears my gums are becoming so sensitive. I am on Multivitamins daily and drink milk and have yoghurt almost daily. Any ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dansgem 9 Posted June 5, 2013 Oh my gosh! The exact same thing is happening to me. I was just at the dentist today, and told them, but I didn't even think to ask if there was a correlation. My gums feel swollen, and tender. I hope someone can help here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwi17 54 Posted June 6, 2013 I experienced that during weeks 1 and 2, but it resolved. I have a dentist appointment tomorrow and i was thinking about asking them about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NewYear'sSleeve 18 Posted June 6, 2013 I've actually noticed that every time I am on a low carb diet that I get really bad tooth sensitivity. I don't know what the correlation is.

ChristineR 128 Posted June 6, 2013 I just noticed today that the tips of my front top/bottom teeth look slightly translucent. It didn't look that way yesterday! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rayna 4 Posted June 6, 2013 Reading up on it a bit more tonight, it could be from a B12 deficiency. I haven't really been vomiting for about 2 weeks, do don't think it's that. I will contact my dr to discuss further :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rayna 4 Posted June 7, 2013 Confirmed as a vit c deficiency, thankfully! ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
