Sure, you can definitely get rid of it. This condition is called as gingivitis and will require a procedure of cleaning called as scaling by a dentist followed by meticulous plaque control by you. Please visit the dentist as soon as possible for immediate rectification of this problem. Talk to your dentist in detail about a proper brushing technique for better gum health maintenance in the future.
Regards.
