Is it really necessary for me to have gum grafting treatment?

Q.

Hello Dr Bohara. I recently visited the dentist and she said since my gums are receding I would need gum grafting. She said bonding could not be done since the teeth would appear longer. Since these teeth are in the back of my mouth where noone can notice, I want to avoid the pain and healing of gum grafts. It has been years since I’ve seen a dentist since I had no insurance. I have no pain except from slight sensitivity where the gums have receded, otherwise nothing. It’s more of a cosmetic issue, I’ve had worse from shaving! Also, is a deep cleaning necessary since it’s been so long? I have tartar build-up on my lower front teeth. Thanks for the help!
