What sort of dentist should I look for when trying to fix my receding gums?
Q. I have severely receding gums around my upper molars (due to vigorous brushing in the past) which cause me pain at times, from xray I have also lost some bone around these areas. What are the best procedures for this problem and what sort of dentist should I look for? Does the nhs not cover this?,
A. You could try to find a gum specialist local to you. This type of specialist treatment is available on the nhs except through a teaching hospital. You might also find an nhs dentist who might be able to do this for you.
