You deserve to have a smile that lasts a lifetime. Gum recession does not have to be the end of your healthy smile.
·
Stop
overly aggressive brushing-your cosmetic
dentist & office staff can demonstrate the proper technique of
brushing and flossing.
·
Use
only soft bristled toothbrushes.
·
Practice
good oral hygiene-brush 2x/day & flossing daily; visit your cosmetic dentist every 3, 4, or
6 months for professional cleaning.
·
Avoid
putting or chewing any foreign objects in the mouth to prevent dental injury to
the gums.
·
Wear
a night guard-some dentists think that clenching/grinding teeth may cause gum
recession.
·
Consult
with your cosmetic dentist
for possible orthodontic treatment to correct misaligned teeth and bite.
Straight teeth and proper occlusion may prevent gum recession.
The best way to
prevent gum recession is to take good care of your teeth and gums. Brushing twice daily, flossing daily, and
visiting your cosmetic dentist at least twice a year is recommended.
If you experience any dental problem or tooth
sensitivity, schedule an appointment with the Glendora cosmetic dentist,
Dr. Anna Lee, for a
consultation. She can be reached at 626-335-5114 or email drannalee1@gmail.com.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS! GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR FAMILY!
God Bless America!
