Your gums are there to protect your teeth, and when loose or receding gums occur, it can leave the roots of the teeth exposed and more susceptible to cavities. These pockets that develop between the teeth and gums can also harbor bacteria that can worsen the loosening as well.

Loose gums are sometimes referred to as “receding gums” and need to be addressed as soon as possible. The treatment for loose gums is that of gum grafting, during which donor material is used to recreate the gum tissue and gum line.Usually this procedure is done when the gums are infection free.Gum grafting is an effective way of restoring the smile after gum recession and continues to be an important part of the treatment plan for those who are ready to protect their smile and improve its appearance after more severe cases of periodontal disease.
