Question : I have teeth problem

Answered by Dr. Neha Sumra (17 minutes later)

Brief Answer: You have periodontitis. Detailed Answer: Hi XXXXX Thanks for writing in. I saw you report & would like to tell you that you have got receding gums. It occurs due to improper oral hygiene. You need to go for scaling. You should consult periodontist to go for flap surgery to cover these receding gums. Also maintain proper oral hygiene by regular brushing & using 0.2% chlorhexidine mouthwash once daily half an hour after brushing. Hope I answered your query. Wishing you good health Regards Dr.Neha Sumra
