Mum's gums 'bled for 11 years' after kids were born until she used 32p
A mother of two says a £29.99 gum serum, reduced and discounted to 32p per use, stopped her bleeding gums within two days after 11 years of struggling. The story, shared by her and covered by multiple regional outlets, includes details about the product's cost, her dental history, and her positive experience.
A mother of two from the UK says she has dealt with bleeding gums since the birth of her children, who are now 11 and 9. For 11 years, the problem persisted despite regular dental check-ups and hygiene appointments. She described the issue in a testimonial, saying she 'never really resolved the issue' and also expressed frustration with the yellowing of her teeth.
The mother's story has been picked up by several regional news outlets, including Cornwall Live, the Daily Post, Derby Telegraph, Teessidelive, Kentlive, Leicester Mercury, My London, and Nottinghamshire Live, all of which report the same account.
The Product and the Price
According to these reports, the mother turned to MySweetSmile's Hyaluronic Gum Serum. The serum is normally priced at £29.99 but has been reduced to £24.99. The brand is currently running a buy two-for-one-free offer, which brings the cost down to 32p per application.
She also purchased the brand's whitening powder as part of a three-for-two deal. In her account, she said she used the whitening powder in the morning and the enamel and gum serum in the evening. She noted that from day two of using the products, her gums stopped bleeding. She added that her teeth looked 'noticeably cleaner' and that she was 'so happy' with the results.
The product, according to MySweetSmile, is formulated with high-concentration Hyaluronic Acid (HA+) and is designed to provide deep hydration, calm inflammation, and reinforce gum tissue. The brand states that typical indicators of unhealthy gums include redness or swelling, bleeding while brushing or flossing, persistent bad breath, and receding or sensitive gums.
Other Gum Care Options
The articles also mention alternative gum care products available in the UK. Boots stocks Gengigel Gel 20ml at £8.95, which the company says promises active protection from gum disease and supports the natural healing of inflamed and damaged tissue in the mouth. Another product, Halo Gum Serum, is sold by Holy Mouthwash for £23, reduced from £31.
These alternatives are presented as options for readers looking to address gum issues at home, though the mother's experience is the primary focus of the coverage.
Testimonials and Caveats
The articles include several customer testimonials praising MySweetSmile's gum serum for its rapid effects, with some customers reporting healthy gums and no more bleeding within days. One customer, however, mentioned disappointment with the customer service due to a system error, though it was not specified which product was purchased.
A Note on Promotion
It's worth noting that the coverage is largely anecdotal and promotional in tone. The mother's account is presented as evidence of the product's effectiveness, and the articles include direct quotes from her and other customers. The brand's claims about the product's formulation and benefits are also repeated without independent verification.
While the mother's story is compelling, readers should consider that such testimonials are subjective and may not reflect the experience of all users. As always, professional dental advice is recommended for any persistent oral health concerns.

Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status counts the distinct outlets we found asserting it — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
