Gum Recession
Gum recession is the retraction of the gum tissue surrounding the teeth, exposing the tooth or tooth root. If gingival recession is not treated, the tissue and bone structures that support the teeth can be seriously damaged and tooth loss can occur.
When gingival recession occurs, both aesthetic and biological problems arise. Sometimes it can be caused by improper brushing, sometimes by clenching or grinding teeth, and sometimes by poorly made dental fillings or crowns. It usually occurs as a result of advanced gum disease and loss of underlying bone volume. Some important symptoms appear before the disease. Taking these symptoms into account, it is possible to stop the gingival recession problem, which is difficult to treat, before it progresses.

Gum Recession
Gingival recession is the opening of the root surface by falling below the enamel level of the gingival border.
There is no specific age group for gingival recession. It can be seen in all individuals, young or old, if there is an environment that prepares the ground for the disease.
Brushing with the wrong tooth brushing technique, brushing teeth more than 3 times a day, hard tooth brushing, tooth displacement, high and abnormal frenulums, gum diseases and previously made incorrect fillings and coatings cause gingival recession.
Teeth should be brushed in circular motions with a medium hard brush and the application should never be too harsh. When you use the toothbrush and toothpaste recommended by your dentist as described, problems such as gum recession will disappear.
Gum diseases are inflammatory diseases that occur inside the gums. Inflammation in the gums causes melting of the bone tissue surrounding the tooth and causes recession in the bone tissue. The gingival tissue also follows the bone tissue, causing gingival recession.
As a result of gingival treatment, all coatings and fillings in that area must be changed.
The accumulation of plaque on the teeth due to gingival recession and deterioration of brushing leads to root caries, tooth sensitivity and aesthetic problems.
In cases where the gingival border falls below a certain level and the hard tissue surrounding the teeth is completely removed, tooth loss may occur.
In cases of gingival recession, 3 treatment methods are applied: treating the damage on the tooth tissue, treating tooth sensitivity and surgically replacing the extracted gingival tissue.
While the use of antibiotics is recommended to relieve inflammation in other parts of the body, antibiotics are not sufficient for the treatment of gingivitis.
Damages on the gums are treated by applying a filling to the damaged area or covering the tooth completely. In this way, the sensitivity problem is also eliminated.
