Gum Recession Cure - How to Rebuild Gums

Gum Recession can be ugly and can also be a sign of gum disease.

Building gum back is often very difficult, and many family dentists would not have the experience to be able to do something like this.

There are several ways to build gum back, and most are variations on a similar theme- the gum graft (or we call it a connective tissue graft - because it sounds more clever!)

In this video I'll show you when this treatment works really well and in those situations where it is not that great.

Pulling oil saved my teeth. I was flossing, brushing and waterpiking my teeth, but I still had gum recession. When my dentist said that I needed a gum graft, I started looking for another solution. I put a spoonful of coconut oil in my mouth for about 10-15 minutes every morning, before brushing and just move it around my mouth. Make sure you spit it out in the garbage, don't spit it in the sink or toilet or it will cause plumbing problems. Oil pulling has stopped my gum recession, it made breath fresher and made my teeth will feel more firmly in place. I told 3 of my friends who had similar problems and two of them have stopped their gum recession as well. While my gums did not regenerate, they have not receded any further. Try it for a week, it may help you as well.

EDITED to answer questions that are repeatedly asked. I don't recommend one brand of oil over another, I use any type of organic coconut oil. If you don't like/can't use coconut oil, try sesame oil, sunflower oil or olive oil. If oil in your mouth makes you gag, start by using less oil, for a shorter amount of time and build your way up.

I used oil pulling with either sesame oil or coconut oil, infrared light therapy and myrrh essential oil and my gum above my eye tooth has grown back. I oil pull in the morning for 20 minutes. On occasion when I use coconut oil I will put in the myrrh oil in with it. At night I will put the myrrh oil right on the gum and I will rub it in and around the gum. Then I will also use my infrared light therapy for 12 minutes. I’ve been doing this for 7 months, and I am not doing it consistently everyday. I only have a tiny little hole left in the gum. The gum has grown back. My dentist was in shock.

Gosh, I wish you were my dentist. You have a gentle and reassuring voice, you would be perfect for nervous patients like myself. Thank you for explaining it all so clearly.

Every time a dentist explains something you could hear how much this will cost, not cheap and expensive and their work is never guaranteed

I’m only 25 and I was breaking down and in tears seeing my guys and realizing my negligence. These comments and this video have calmed me tremendously I can’t thank you enough. Time to get on a serious track of taking care of my teeth.

I’ve just been scrolling… this comes up a few mins later I realise I’m just watching even though I don’t need to know about my gums. This man should be reading children’s nite time stories or guided meditation tracks. Nearly fell asleep totally mesmerised 😴

[LearnAndGrow]

I was freaking out after seeing my upper two teeth's gums kinda shrinking and your explanation really calmed me down after seeing gums between my teeth and hearing it can be treated, thank you!

[amlenz]

You seem so knowledgeable and friendly. If only all dentists were like you!

[Reality_TV]

This guy makes me feel like everything is going to be OK! I don't even have these issues & YouTube suggested this for me (I don't know why), but his voice is soothing & makes me love him!

[phoenixx]

According to your video, my gum recession is treatable. This was so interesting. Thank you! ;)

[lrpolo]

I’ve had gum disease for most of my teens and twenties and didn’t know it, was so satisfying to watch this

[leesurridge]

Thank you. This has put my mind at ease that my gum recession is not in as bad a stage as I thought.

[jodiwaterson]

You are very knowledgeable. Anyone who is having work done by you is not only lucky but in good hands. I just turned 50 and am going through a few different dental issues that seem to be happening all at once. I used to wonder why people would walk around with missing teeth but now I understand considering cost. It’s sad that many people can not afford care, especially when the problems didn’t occur from lack of dental hygiene

So true, I had gum disease and changed my diet, took supplements and visited the dentist who extracted 2 decayed teeth. I did oil pulling (moringa oil) and flossed everyday. Rinsed with a Mouthwash and brushed lightly for two minutes each morning and each night. I did this consistently which prevented plaque build up and irritation. I had the black triangles between each tooth on the top set, however, 6 months on my gums are fully recovered and the gaps are no longer. It takes time, effort and a lot of TLC, but the results are amazing. I am not OCD with my teeth, but I am definitely more aware of my dental duties and have managed to save any more teeth from being affected. I had one filling, and an enamel erosion fixed with some gel like substance so there would be no further damage to the tooth. All in all I think I got very lucky.

If this guy were my dentist, I’d likely book an appointment. My dentist is a bandit

Dr. Gurs I wish you was here in the USA. I've been told that restoration for gums was not possible but can be controlled not to lose more. Dentist have this on there websites "once gum loss happen you cannot get it back" Not one Dentist ever said it can be restored through gum grafting "WoW" thank you for educating us through this tutorial.

I know this might not work for everyone but switching to an electric toothbrush with a circular brush and a gentle cycle changed everything for me, when I was using a manual brush I would brush so hard which is not healthy for my type of teeth which are pretty small.

[billythekid]

I usually would skip through this video, but you made it interesting 🤔 to listen to.

I've been scarred to death since a friend of my sister was told by his dentist that they would have to remove all of his teeth because of his gum recession. This was apparently due to smoking. My gums are slightly recessed and i smoke, so I was losing my sanity. My dentist told me that she wouldn't take off all my teeth, so that was a little relief eheh. Thank you for your knowledge!
