[SPAM] gum problems

[Guest guest]

In the past, I asked my dentist why people had receding gums. He said that it

was rarely due to gum disease. The most common cause was teeth grinding while

sleeping. He gave a long description of why this occurs.

This is not gum disease but some unethical dentists diagnose gum disease for

receding gums when a protective guard warn at night would correct this.

I have had friends who received $2000 plus diagnoses for their gum problems

and my wonderful dentist corrected the problem easily and cheaply. One friend

would was going to be charged $2000+ for a painful tooth discovered from my

dentist that it was due to a filled tooth not being ground down properly after

the filling...costing only $200!

Misty,

2 factors: 1. Weakened resistive capacity of the host.

2. Of course, organized colonies of bacteria.

I gave a radio talk for The Oral Health Committee of Greater NY

on this, and we've

prepared a packet, " Having Great Gums " discussing this common problem.

I think it would be helpful if we made the script for the radio

Lynn is correct.

Bite irregularities cause grinding and clenching -- and this causes

gum recession.

It can occur with or without gum disease.
