What is Gum Recession?
Gum recession is a common dental problem in which the margins of the gum tissue wears away or pulls back- exposing the tooth’s root. Causes of gum recession include: periodontal disease, aggressive tooth brushing, insufficient dental care/visits, hormonal changes, tobacco use, grinding and clenching of teeth, crooked teeth, misaligned bite, and body piercings of the lip or tongue.
What are the consequences of gum recession?
Gum recession can have many consequences such as creating gaps between teeth and the gum line making it easier for disease causing bacteria to build up then destroy teeth, lead to tooth sensitivity, cause the appearance of ‘longer’ teeth, tooth loss and/or severe overall health consequences.
