Receding gums
My front lower tooth gum is falling down. I got deep laser cleaning done two months back but it didn't recover. I have also been unable to brush twice and follow recommendation to use Stolin gum paint twice a day. Last four days, I faced huge plaque sticking on lower teeth and also gum receeded further. Now, I am brushing twice and using Stolin. Will it help to grow back the gum ?

Treat the cause. After undergoing laser surgery, if still u 've recurrence of the same problem. Then u 've to treat the cause. Check with ur dentist what had caused this recession? This shouldn't happen at this age. Might be u can consult an orthodontist, check with ur malaligned teeth and then meet a periodontist.

Many times improper alignment of teeth or tooth makes the gums and attached bony structure vulnerable ,I would suggest orthodontic alignment of teeth followed by proper oral hygiene and gum massage will help

Yes it will help to grow the gums back but there should not be any deposits on the teeth...neither the plaque nor calculus deposits should be present. If they r present u need to go for scaling again plus ur pics are not very clear

Opt for scaling followed by proper brushing techniques & maintenance of proper oral hygiene.
Use any good toothpaste with very soft bristle toothbrush.
Use mouthwash twice a day.

Hello,
First you have to get the tartar deposit on tht tooth removed and then after that only stolin gum massage to be done ...Then only will gums be able to tighten around that area ...As far as gums growing back is concerned it's only a body's response but if you follow your doctor's instructions at least the recession will not worsen..

Your gum recession may be due to a traumatic bite as normally at this age there should not be periodontal disease unless you are not maintaining oral hygiene. Consult a good dentist to diagnose the exact cause and treat accordingly. Stolin is just a gum astringent to reduce gum inflammation. It will not help in growing your gum back
