The Causes, Prevention, and Treatment of Receding Gums
Receding gums happen when your gums (ostensibly) recede or pull back from your teeth, like they’re being stretched out like underwear, revealing the tooth roots and underlying jaw more and more.
They’re like fleshy curtains being pulled away, which could spell doom to the periodontal tissue connections between root and socket, leading to loose teeth or your teeth outright falling out.
Symptoms of receding gums
You might be suffering from receding gum disease if your tooth roots are exposed. Other warning signs of gum recession include gingivitis and bleeding gums or any gingival infection, as well as these other symptoms.
- Your gum line is painful or uncomfortable to the touch.
- You may also feel pain when eating sweets such as candies.
- When undergoing prophylaxis or dental cleanings, you feel sensitivity or pain.
- You exhibit tooth sensitivity symptoms, like sensitivity to cold or hot temperatures.
If you ignore these signs, your receding gums can get worse enough to cause various health problems, such as periodontal disease, wiggly or loose teeth, jawbone loss, and outright tooth loss. Consult your dentist for more inquiries.
Causes of receding gums
Most of the time, neglecting to clean your mouth contributes the most to receding gums. Being overzealous with brushing can also make your gums recede though, so proceed with your oral hygiene with due caution.
When you consume loads of sweet or starchy foods unchecked, it usually results in bacteria forming into plaque that can then turn into tartar (plaque with calcium deposits or calculus). This inflames your gums to the point of recession.
