Im getting my ortho treatment since last 9mnths. Recently the marginal n attached gingiva hav undergone blanching and necrosis n has fallen off in the 33 region. A part of the root is exposed and i hav severe sensitivity in that region. Will the gingiva grow back?

For teeth sensitivity you can use desensitizing tooth pastes like vanjet,sensodyne etc. But Gingival recession have to reviewed once ortho treatment is completed....There are different ways to augment gingiva coronally...i.e root coverage procedures.
