No.
Reply:Use listerine twice a day after eating, then use baking soda and mix it with peroxide and swish with that before you go to bed.
Reply:Not really. All i can say is be sure you are eating the correct vitamins for strong healthy gums and brush gently in circles, not zig-zags.





It will grow back fast.
Reply:Sorry I'm not so sure about medications but I do know that smoking impairs the ability for gums to grow back quite significantly. Not sure if you smoke of course but my friend had this problem recently which is why I found out.
Reply:I am right handed and have done the same thing a couple of times on my upper right molars. My dad (also my dentist) told me I needed to brush gently and not spend so much time in that area b/c it was obviously being overbrushed.





Then came the Sonicare toothbrush which really was the best answer for me. With the Sonicare I don't have to put extra pressure on my toothbrush to get my teeth clean. Over time the gums will start to come back down and cover your roots. I know this as I have seen mine move back down over the root. It is not a quick process but give it time. It might not come back 100%, but will improve. I do not know any medication to assist in this process, see your dentist for this answer.





I'm not a dentist, I have just lived with one most of my life and come from a family of 8 dentists and 4 hygienists so I get a lot of dental education.
Reply:i don't know about medicines, but when my mom had trouble w/her gums receeding...or erosion she had to have tissue transplanted from the roof of her mouth to the affected gum area. She said it was very painful.
Reply:Switch to a softer brush. I have the same problem. I finally purchased a Rotadent brush from my dentist. It is super super soft. No, there is not medication that can grow it back. But it can come down a bit or stop receding with softer toothbrush. Also my dentist said you are suppose to "tickle" your gumline. Not brush it really hard. I also used a Sonicare but be very careful how you brush. You use wayyyy less effort and let the brush to do the work. Tiny circles. I couldn't use that anymore also because I still brush too hard. Also, depending on how your gums have receded, your doctor can take skin from the roof of your mouth and graft it to the receeded areas. Good luck!
