I have receding gums, what can I do?

Friday, February 4th, 2011
Q.

Hi,
My dentist has diagnosed receding gums and has recommended me to wear a bite raising appliance before i go to bed.
Do you think that they are any use in stopping my gums from receding any further.
Any sort of advice would be appreciated.

I went through a patch of depression and neglected brushing, now I think my teeth are loose, what problem do I have?

Friday, February 4th, 2011
Q.

Hi thanks for your time i am due at my dentist in march ( appointments booked) i went through a very bad patch of depression recently lasting 8 months where i basically let my health run down my diet, eating habbits, and oral hygiene i basically missed about 274 days of brushing im ashamed to admit however i did at points use mouth wash whenever i didnt brush ( im very ashamed of lack of oral hygiene during this time) recently ( since nov / dec time) i have got back into a routine where i have started brushing occasionally flossing and motuh washing ( cortisol gum mouth wash) basically i have noticed in last few weeks ( aprox 12 day ish) i have noticed when i touch my tongue against my teeth usually bottom front they “click” or rather feel like they move however this is not noticeable when i check in mirror my fiance tried wiggling my tooth with his fingers and said “nope thats not going anywhere thats in there” when i try the tooth with my fingers it doesnt move either i just hear a click which i inaudiable to anyone else. i have noticed a vast improvement in my gums of late and they dont seem to be bleeding as much if at all when i brush should i be worried about the “clicking/movement” or is this normal when bad teeth as i call them start getting healthier. Thanks again and any advice you can give would be appreciated

Ps my fiancee says he has noticed ive been grinding my teeth occasionally in my sleep could this be another factor of “clicking/moving” ?
