Posts tagged “thin gums”

HI Ian, ,I have noticed recently that I have relly light patches above my teeth in my gums. it looks like the gum is really stretched over the tooths rooth sort of thing? my gums have receded a little bit I think as the little triangle bits either side of my front right incisor have gone. this is the only place they have done so and I think I may have halted any further progress with excellent oral hygiene including a check up and hygienist clean at the dentist since I noticed. I feel like I’ve done ll I can in the mean time but could the lighter patches of gum be problematic? thanks for your time Dr it is appreciated.
