Gum Recession

Gum recession is a common dental condition that occurs when the gums pull back and expose the tooth roots. This can lead to various dental problems such as tooth sensitivity, decay, and even tooth loss in severe cases. Gum recession can occur due to gum disease, brushing too aggressively, genetics, and aging.

At Bintez, our experienced dental professionals provide personalized treatments for gum recession. We use advanced technologies to diagnose and treat gum recession effectively, protecting against further complications.

What Causes Gum Recession?

• Gum Disease: Periodontal disease damages supporting tissue
• Aggressive Brushing: Over-brushing can wear down gum tissue
• Genetics: Some people are more predisposed
• Aging: Natural recession over time
• Tobacco Use: Increases plaque buildup and recession

Gum Recession Treatments

Gum Grafting

The most effective treatment involves taking a small amount of tissue from another area of the mouth or using donor tissue and attaching it to the affected area. This helps restore the gum line and protect exposed tooth roots.

Other Treatments

• Scaling and Root Planing: Deep cleaning below the gum line
• Antibiotics: Treat gum disease and stop further recession
• Orthodontic Treatment: Correct misaligned teeth that contribute to recession
