Gum recession or receding gums means that the roots of your teeth start showing in your mouth. This root surface may often be more sensitive to cold, brushing and sometimes hot substances. It’s also a darker colour than the top or crown of the tooth and decays more readily.
The causes of gum recession can be linked to GumDisease, poor teeth cleaning (both insufficient and too aggressive cleaning) and trauma
