I Had My Gums Stretched Through The NHS But Now They’re Almost Non-Existent, It’s Affecting My Social Life. What Can I Do?

Q.

I’m 34 and very depressed about my receding gums. I had my gums stretched on the NHS and I feel like this has done nothing as my gums are now non-existent and my teeth are yellow, what do you suggest. I’ve given up hope and I’ve got no confidence. Do you think I need false teeth. I’m thinking about re-mortgaging to find funds to get my teeth sorted. Doesn’t help that I’m single so I feel like I’m going to be on my own forever now as my teeth look awful. Someone thought I was in my forties the other day. I reckon it’s because my teeth make me look a lot older. Feel sorry for myself as most of my mates smoke and abuse themselves yet they have nice pink healthy gums and white teeth to be proud of. I hope you can help me sort this out.

My Gums Have Receded Badly Due To Periodontal Disease, Is There Anything That Can Help Them Grow Back?

Q.

Hi

I have some receding gums at the back of my mouth due to periodontitis.

Do you know of anyone using stem cells to regenerate gums as I have heard trials are taking place already to help grow back the gum area? I am desperate to receive some sort of treatment before they start looking really bad. My teeth have already begun feeling very sensitive and my gums are constantly bleeding. It’s very worrying and I’m trying to get the disease under control. I was wondering if you know of any other treatments to help with gums as I have black marks on mine which is due to probably smoking but I would like to know if they can ever go back to pink again? Anything at all? Thanks in advance.
