Receding Gums and Treatment

28-09-2018

When gums recede, teeth can become loose with roots exposed and sensitive. Early intervention by a dentist is critical to prevent tooth loss.

Key takeaways:

– Gum disease can lead to gum recession; treatment may include deep cleaning.

– Aggressive flossing and bushing is damaging to gums, brush and floss carefully, use a soft bristled toothbrush.

– Dentists can treat teeth-grinding, misaligned bite and other gum-damaging issues.

Regular checkups allow your dentist to monitor your teeth and gum health.

“Your gum tissue protects your teeth and keeps them healthy and safe—don’t ignore receding gums if you notice them!”
