You’ve probably noticed your teeth are quite sensitive to hot and cold foods/drinks. These are often symptoms of a condition called receding gums — and below we explain what causes it.
Key takeaways:
• When plaque accumulates around your gum line, gum disease can develop and make the gums pull away (recede).
• Aggressively brushing your teeth can also make your gums swell and recede.
• Pregnancy and misaligned teeth can cause gum disease which may later result in receding gums.
Talk to your dentist if you’re experiencing tooth sensitivity. See your dentist every six months so these problems get treated promptly, to avoid further complications.
