Overland Park Dental Gum Recession
Protecting your gums and smile
Supporting healthy gums and a confident smile
We can help you foster gum health
Gum recession is a common dental issue that can lead to discomfort and sensitivity, but it can be effectively managed with professional care. It occurs when the gum tissue surrounding your teeth begins to wear away, exposing more of the tooth or its root. Left untreated, this condition can increase the risk of decay, lead to further gum disease, and may eventually affect the stability of your teeth.
At Bowles Dental, your Overland Park gum recession dentist is dedicated to helping you maintain healthy gums and a vibrant smile. Schedule your appointment today.
Do I have gum recession?
Gum recession often develops gradually, making it difficult to notice in its early stages. If you think you may be experiencing gum recession, watch for signs like:
- Visible lengthening of teeth
- Sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures
- Tenderness or discomfort along the gum line
- Noticing your gums pulling away from your teeth
If any of these symptoms sound familiar, schedule an appointment to address them early. With prompt care, you can prevent further gum damage and keep your smile looking its best.
Why treat gum recession?
- Protect your tooth roots and overall oral health
- Alleviate gum and tooth sensitivity
- Preserve your gumline and maintain a confident smile
- Reduce the need for more extensive treatments in the future
