Gum Recession

Question

Gum Recession

Asked for Female, 36 Years

Hi Doctor I'm a braces wearer, I'm considering to extract one of my affected gum on one of my tooth to help my receeded gum, the thing is, when I look at my gum on that particular tooth, there is the only one that is affected. Any suggestion? I'm thinking grafting over extraction, the cost is also higher:(
