Exposed root of tooth
Hi my gum has deepened on my left side canine and exposed the tooth more. Which causes a sensation whenever I eat or drink something. Please suggest what should I do. Thanks
Hi
You need to visit your dentist as it may be due to tooth brush abrasion or gums problem. In minor cases you can use desensitising tooth paste... but if it has led to removal of some tooth structure also then you need to get it filled.
