WHAT IS GUM RECESSION?

Teeth are made of the strongest materials in your body, particularly the outer layer of teeth (enamel). While they help you chew, grind, and rip food, teeth also help you speak clearly. However, your teeth can’t do it all alone. They need the support of healthy oral tissue, including your gums.

Gums should fit closely around the anatomical crown (top part of the tooth). Healthy gums are pink, firm, and don’t bleed easily, even when flossing. However, occasional bleeding can occur, even in healthy gums, if you use a hard-bristled brush or “snap” your dental floss against your gums.

Receding gums (gingival recession) occurs due to periodontitis, a severe stage of gum disease or trauma that can be caused by toothbrush abrasion. Recession whether due to infection or trauma exposes the root surfaces, which are softer and more prone to decay. As a result, your gums can’t effectively support the teeth and bacteria can get trapped in the growing gaps.

Gum recession also increases the risk of infection and can lead to tooth loss. Symptoms of receding gums due to infection typically include:

• Bad breath
• Bleeding gums
• Exposed roots
• Gum swelling or pain
• Loose teeth
• Visibly shrinking gums

Symptoms of trauma from toothbrush abrasion typically include:

• Root wear
• Root decay
• Exposed roots
• Tooth sensitivity
