Gum recession is a condition where your gum gradually recedes, exposing more of the root surface of your tooth which is more susceptible to damage and sensitivity. A receding gum line also causes the teeth to appear longer which can be unesthetic. Gum recession is a common issue caused by a host of factors, including gum disease, grinding or clenching, aggressive tooth brushing, and even genetics. If left to progress, gum recession could lead to increased gaps between teeth, more plaque accumulation, higher risk of cavities, and in severe cases, tooth loss.
