Symptoms of Receding Gums

The recession of a gum might lead to severe gum infection that destroys the soft tissues and bones of the teeth that lead to a tremendous toothache. But often people are unable to understand what the real causes of this dental problem or more precisely the gum problem and what are the symptoms that should be noticed in its early stage to get rid of it. So the early symptoms are:

• The person suffering from it will have swollen or puffy gums and it is often noticed that the gums are turning purplish or bright red and sometimes even dusky red in colour

• Tenderness of gums felt when it is touched and sometimes even bleeding of gums even due to a gentle prick with the toothbrush is a major symptom.

• Gums are seen to be pulled away from the teeth, that is what exactly reseeding means and this will make your teeth appear longer than its actual size.

• Huge and unusual spaces developing between your teeth from where pus is oozing from the gums. For this reason, the mouth might even be a bad breath or Odour.

• The teeth might get loose from the gums and might even fall out. Further, the loose and jiggling teeth might make it Painful on Chewing.

Causes of Receding Gums

These are the possible symptoms which are caused further by different factors. The causes for having a receding gum are:

• Gum inflammation- gum inflammation is an issue that everyone tends to ignore unless it is a serious problem. Inflammation is the main issue that causes pockets in the gum and invites bacterial growth. This is the reason why gum recession happens.

• TMD- Temperomandibular Joint Disorders occurs and a tension is created in the jaw joint that leads to the destruction of the tissues that binds the teeth and the jaws. As this the reason why gum recedes.

• Plaque- sugars and starches present in the food that we consume interact with certain bacteria which are normally found in a human mouth cavity. This leads to gapping and rotting of gums and makes it even more painful. However, the natural remedy to plaque is to brush the teeth twice every day and floss once at least to removes plaque. But one thing that should be kept in mind is that there is always a tendency that the plaque would return again and cause a similar problem.
