Is there a way to treat receding gums due to excessive and careless brushing without surgery?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Excessive and careless brushing causes loss of tooth structure (enamel) along with gum recession.

1. Is there any sensitivity or pain while consuming hot or cold foods?
2. How many teeth have receded gums?

The treatment of gum recession depends on the number of teeth involved, the extent of gum recession, and loss of tooth enamel if present. Unfortunately, gums, once receded, cannot be made to regrow. If the recession is more, it can be treated with gum grafting. Loss of tooth enamel can be treated with a simple tooth-colored filling (if no pain is present).

A clear clinical picture of the area will help evaluate the severity of the condition and treatment accordingly. Please attach a clear photo of your tooth and gums. If the recession is very minimal, it will not require any treatment, and further recession can be stopped by following the proper brushing techniques.

Hope this helps. Kindly revert for further queries.

Thank you.
