Can we correct gum recession?

Gum recession can be corrected with a variety of ways such as:
  1. Mucogingival surgical techniques to cover exposed roots
  2. Mucogingival surgical techniques with tissue grafts or biological materials to assist with covering roots in advanced cases that were previously thought to be untreatable
  3. Using restorative materials such as gum veneers or crowns
  4. Using orthodontic repositioning of teeth can also be recommended
These techniques are only effective after removal of the cause of the recession particularly traumatic tooth brushing. Several studies have demonstrated the long term effects of this treatment in correcting gum recession and preventing re-occurrence.
