Gingival Recession
The gums are protective barriers on the teeth.
Gingival recession is more common, especially in people with thin gums. Apart from this, gingival recessions, are caused by tartar accumulation, excessive tooth clenching habit, hard and faulty tooth brushing, activation of the gum by the lip and cheek muscle ligaments and excessive forces seen during orthodontic treatment. In individuals with gingival recession, sensitivity to hot and cold, decays on the exposed root surface and aesthetic problems can be seen.
