Gum recession is a common problem among many patients. It can be caused by many factors including gum disease, trauma from heaving toothbrushing or piercings, orthodontics, thin tissues and/or poor oral hygiene. The result of gum recession may cause sensitivity or feel aesthetically unpleasing. The bone is an important factor in gum recession it is the scaffold for the gum, and therefore if the surrounding bone is good then correction maybe possible.
