What Causes Sore Tissue Between Lower Lip And Gum?

The tissue between lower lip & gum has been sore for a while now. I saw my dentist who scrubbed all my gums, but it appears that the piece between the bottome lip & gum is tearing, more painful, more sensitive & possible the gums are receding. Should I go back to my dentist or should I go to a specialits?
