You might also look into hydrogen peroxide. I don't do this every day, but a couple of times per week. You can either rinse with 3% hydrogen peroxide, or you can make a paste from baking soda and hydrogen peroxide and massage into the gumline. If you do the latter, be very gentle (don't brush with it), and you will only need a little hydrogen peroxide to make the paste (if you add too much, it'll just dissolve the baking soda).

These are recommended for people with any gum recession, bleeding gums (for example, if your gums bleed easily when flossing), and/or perio disease. Gum recession is actually a protective effect; your body is basically trying to reestablish a barrier between the plaque biofilms and your circulatory system by "retreating" and restablishing a new baseline. Once you have mature calculus at the gumline, you really should be getting a cleaning from a professional who can debride the calculus; if you have significant gum pockets, you should be getting 2-3 perio cleanings a year. But your best at-home measure is peroxide; biofilms are a bitch at this stage. They are hard and quite resilient to things like toothbrushes and toothpaste.

Once you are clean and just maintaining, I would recommend getting a water pik for at home. They are very affordable now. Use them on your gumline.

EDIT: Boozy corrected me.

1. Xylitol after meals

2. Closys Ultra Sensitive mouth rinse before brushing. Half of what the bottle recommends to use.
Use for ONLY one minute.

3. Resilient dense tooth brush with good brissels.

4. Crest cavity prevention tooth paste.

5. Start brushing by brushing on the inside of teeth on bottom, massage gums.
If going to floss, do it right after brushing with toothpaste still on the teeth.

6. Let toothbrush dry for 24 hours before uses.

7. Rinse with Listerine cool mint or original. Original is tiny bit more powerful.
Always use full strength.
Rinse as long as you can stand it, even if only for s second.

8. Rinse with Act mouthwash zero alcohol Anti-cavity. Purchase smaller bottles, not larger. Larger have more water in them than the smaller bottles.
Best to rinse for a minute.

Somehow I'm a bit skeptical taking advice from a guy who's teeth are so rotten he had to fly to Mexico to get them fixed on the cheap.
