Thank you both and especially to Gellia. I will do as you told me and will get back to tell you the results. And RadioAstronomyObserver, thank you. Your case really scared me, and my teeth just like yours is about to fall out. I really do hope you'll get to see a dentist soon some day.
Thank you,
Dolga
I just joined this forum to get advise about another problem. However, I have what I believe to be the same problem as the original poster here... My bottom two teeth were loose and the gums were receding. These two lower front teeth eventually fell out maybe two years ago and now I have a third right there by the gap that's slightly loose. In the mean time, the gums where the two teeth were seems to be OK, though I'll have to have someone look at this.
This makes it very hard to tare anything apart, I.E.bite into an apple, rip a piece of stake apart, bite a candy bar, ect.... For me, unless I win the lottery I will not be able to afford to see a dentist for at least another four years. My advice to the original poster is to do exactly like Gellia suggests, and ask the dentist about future problems and ask about dentures. I wish I had the money because it is that hard.
You should have xrays done to see how much bone is left holding your teeth in. This will not correct itself and there is nothing you can do without professional help.
While you wait to get to a dentist (and I can't stress how important it is to see one) brush your teeth at least twice daily for a minimum of two to three minutes each time. Use floss every day and add a water pik to your oral hygiene.
Again, you cannot regrow gum. You can only stop it from getting worse and there is nothing you can do by yourself to fix this. A professional has to assess what is dissolving the bone and thereby making your gums recede.
Please make an appt to see your dentist NOW!
My very best to you and good luck,
Gellia
