Question:
My lower front gums are become red and start bleeding easily when I brush them. After some time there is a white layer on my teeth (tartar), which is having a foul smell. I am having bad breath also. How can I save my teeth? If I do scaling then this problem can be solved for future?
Answer:
Sounds like you have a severe case of necrotizing periodontitis which may
require scaling and/or surgery. Only your dentist can tell you the prognosis. The longer you wait the less the chances of saving them.
