I am sufferneing from gum disease my gums are recceding very quickly

Q. I think that I am suffering from gum disease as my gums are receeding quickly. I am only 50 years of age, can anything be done for this?

A. Dear C
As gum disease is painless – the problem can be more advanced than you realise so it is important to visit your dentist as soon as you can possibly with a following referral to a Periodontist ie gum specialist – to see if the problem can be rectified

Kind regards
