Default Gum Problem

I am almost 27 and had brace on both my top and lower teeth for a year. Got it removed 2 months back, but now my gums r really swollen , have receded a lot , and there is gap between teeth and gums. I cant even eat properly due to the gap in gums around the molars. My dentist says that u will have to live with it now. My health is suffering because of it as I cant eat. I am already under weight. Any Advice ?

Hi

I am sorry to hear about your circumstances. This does not sound right.

I would recommend you have second opinion to find out what your potential options are to get your mouth in a healthy state.

I agree with Dr Sepehrara, a second opinion is required here if that is your dentists attitude.
