Is There A Nonsurgical Treatment To Grow My Gums Back?
Is There A Nonsurgical Treatment To Grow My Gums Back?
Hi! Dr. Jimmy here from Dental House group.
As someone who meets and treats numerous patients every day, I see first-hand how the news of having to get surgery can be stressful for many patients. And a common question I get from patients is “Is there a way to regrow my gums without surgery?”
First things first, let’s talk about gum recession. This happens when the gum tissue surrounding your teeth pulls back or wears away, exposing more of your tooth or its root. This can lead to sensitivity, a higher risk of decay, and even tooth loss, so it’s no surprise that many people want to know if there’s a way to reverse it without surgery.
The truth is that once your gums recede, they don’t grow back on their own. But the good news is, there are nonsurgical options that can help stop further recession and even improve the appearance of your gums.
One of the best methods to do that is scaling and root planing, which is a deep cleaning method that removes plaque and tartar from below the gum line, helping the gums heal and reattach to the tooth surface. It’s an effective way to halt gum disease and promote overall healthier gums.
While there are effective methods to stop gum recession from getting worse, these solutions can’t really regrow lost gum tissue. Non-invasive treatments can help strengthen your gums, reduce inflammation, and support weakened areas, but they don’t offer the same reliable, extensive results that gum grafting does.
So, going back to the original question of whether there is a nonsurgical treatment to regain lost gums, unfortunately, the answer is no. This is why, if you’re starting to see any signs of gum issues, even if it is a little bleeding, don’t wait! Consult with your dentist as soon as possible as this is an irreversible condition.
And if you are facing a significant gum recession, gum grafting is the most effective option for restoring your gums and protecting your oral health. Especially if you want to consider other restorative treatments like implants or All Teeth On Four. At Dental House group, we’ll assess your unique situation and also walk you through available payment plans, so you feel confident and informed at every step.
