Hi
Always use soft bristled tooth brush. While you brushing at the back tooth it should be rotational movement at 45 degree angulation . Don't do it in front and back strokes at back teeth. Greyish colour of your gums might be a pigmentation . Take hexigel and apply for twice daily if you have any discharge or gum pain..
