I have this problem and the only instructions were to ensure regular cleaning. It is very easy to get infections so the bacteria has to be removed regularly. I don't use plaque remover, just rely on ordinary toothpaste and have only had a couple of infections over many years. Also, you need to use a soft toothbrush as it is either aggressive cleaning or lack of cleaning (bacteria) that causes it in the first place. No other treatment has been suggested by my dentist and it actually hasn't got worse. I only have one tooth that is a problem.
