I have been in Central America and my tooth has broken. It is so bad that I can now see the root. What will become of the gum once the tooth is removed?

Monday, August 16th, 2010
Q.
About 1 year ago a very old filling in a molar fell out. I was in central america at the time and was reluctant to see a dentist. I am still in central america and since then the tooth has broken and the gums on the outer portion surrouding this tooth have worn away. It has gotten so bad that I can now see the root. I know that I must have the tooth removed but would like some advice as to what will become of the gums surrounding this tooth? Thank you for your attention to this matter.,

Need to fix my bite and get gum graft, please suggest.

Monday, December 7th, 2009
Q.
I am nearly coming to the end of invisalign treatment and have found that my top front teeth have gone forward and caused me to have a bit of an overbite. Also my lower left canine gum has receded, which must be due to brushing too hard as I don’t have gum disease. Will invisalign refinements be able to push my front teeth back a bit? or is there any other treatment that can fix my bite? Where can I go to get a gum graft, as it is causing me a lot of anguish.

A.
I guess refinement might help … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
