What You Need to Know About Receding Gums
When gums recede, teeth start to look longer and can become sensitive. It's important to get gum recession treated as soon as possible:
- Receding gums could be a sign of gum disease; if left untreated this can result in tooth loss.
- If the cause of receding gums is teeth grinding, it can be treated by wearing a mouth guard at night.
- Overly aggressive brushing and flossing and tooth grinding can also lead to gum recession.
"Your dentist may advise you to buy a soft-bristled toothbrush and be more careful when brushing and flossing"
