If your problem is what your dentist described as invasion of the biological width (crown margins too close to the bone) the tenderness and swelling of your gums are completely unrelated to plaque and therefore the adequate treatment is not about dealing with the plaque but about re-establishing adequate biological width dimensions. This may require making new crowns with less deep margins or surgical reshaping of the bone under the gums or a combination of both. I advise you to seek a consultation with a periodontist (gum specialist) to assess your gums and plan the best treatment for you. Over the years I have treated patients in Spain, USA, Sweden and now in the UK. The approach to treat your problem is similar in all those places. I am confident that you will be able to get what you need in Canada.
