What treatments are available for receding gums and sensitive teeth?

Q.
Hi. I have very bad gums, really badly receded and I’, scared of loosing my teeth. I’m only 33 and go to my dentist regularly but he told me I had nothing to worry about. But I am concerned because my teeth have become very sensitive as my gums have receded. What treatments are available and what would you recommend? My mother had the same problem and has lost many of her teeth – I dont want to loose mine because my teeth are very strong. HELP. Please

Hi

I see many new patients in similar circumstances. It is important you seek a second opinion if you are concerned . If you have gum disease then you would require a specific treatment plan for your case. This can only be decided after examination of your mouth.
