Sheetada is one of the common problems of Dantamoola which is portrayed by the Raktasrava (Bleeding gum), Durghandha (halitosis), Krushnta (Discolouration of gums), Kledata (Excessive dischargre) Mruduta (Softnes of gums), Sheernata (gum downturn). It very well may be associated by Gingivitis. Gingivitis is caused mainly by the accumulation of debris, plaque, and calculus at the tooth margin, due to neglect of oral care . Among all periodontal disease Sheetada is an early stage of periodontal disease. It is caused by vitiated Kapha and Rakta which produces spontaneous bleeding from dark, slimy and soft gums with offensive odour and gum recession. In present study we have discussed a case of 52 year old female patient came to our OPD with chief complaints of foul smell from mouth,bleeding from gums on brushing,pain and swollen gums from last 6 months. This case was intervened with Dantamoola shodhana(dental scaling) followed by Pratisarana with Kushtadi Churna and Gandoosha with Lakshadi Taila.These intervention showed a potential improvement in the management of Sheetada.
