Question 1

Can receding gums grow back?

Accepted Answer

No, gums cannot regenerate naturally. Professional treatment like the Pinhole Technique restores coverage and protects exposed roots.

Minimally invasive gum recession treatment with no scalpels or sutures. A tiny pinhole allows repositioning gum tissue over exposed roots with same-day results.
