A condition where gum tissue pulls away from the teeth, exposing the roots.
Why would a healthy person get receding gums at any age?
Aggressive brushing, periodontal diseases, genetic prevalence, use of Tobacco products, clenching and grinding of the teeth are all causes for receding gums. Receding gums can also be caused by piercing in the mouth area or by crooked teeth.
There are several symptoms of gum disease. These include bad breath, your gums appearing red or puffy, your gums receding and your gums bleeding while brushing or flossing.
Some of the common symptoms for gum disease are bad breath, red or swollen gums, tender or bleeding gums, painful chewing, loose teeth, sensitive teeth, receding gums or longer appearing teeth.

There are several types of gum diseases. The first is called gingivitis, which can, without treatment and care, become the more advanced version called periodontitis. Gingivitis is relatively easy to fix, but can be prevented through proper brushing and flossing techniques. Another gum problem, although it is not a disease, is called receding gums. This is when the gums slowly pull away from the teeth. It occurs from one of two ways: overbrushing or not brushing enough. You can tell if you have gingivitis or periodontitis if your gums are red, swollen, and bleed to the touch. Receding gums can be identified when too much of the tooth is exposed, and the tooth is too far into the gums.
In the very earliest stages, flossing and use of dental sticks allow for cleaning the contact areas (beween teeth) and stimulating the gums (in order to prevent receding gums and advancement of periodontal disease).
Periodontal disease: Bacteria that lives in your mouth, sticks to the teeth and under the gums as dental plaque. This causes inflammation in the gums. If this happens for a long time, the gum and bone underneath recedes away.

You can't make your gums 'grow'. I'm assuming that you are experiencing what is commonly called 'receding gums' were the gums are pulling away from the teeth and exposing tooth root surfaces. This can be aesthetically unpleasing and lead to tooth sensitivity.The best thing you can do is get the opinion of a competent dental health care provider. Your own family dentist can evaluate your situation, and if necessary, refer you to a specialist, presumably a periodontist (gum specialist). Receding gums are frequently associated with a condition called periodontal disease, which happens to be the leading cause of tooth loss in adults.There are surgical procedures in which tissue from other parts of the mouth are grafted into place to replace missing gum tissue. You need to discuss your particular situation with your dentist to determine whether you are a candidate for surgery.

Periodontal disease, also known as gum disease, typically presents with symptoms such as swollen, red, or bleeding gums, bad breath, and receding gums. In more advanced stages, it can lead to the formation of pockets between the teeth and gums, tooth mobility, and even tooth loss. The gums may appear inflamed, and there can be a buildup of plaque and tartar on the teeth. If not treated, periodontal disease can progress to severe forms, affecting the supporting structures of the teeth.
