I have numbness in my gums due to paresthesia and I was wondering if my bottom gums can recede due to this numbness.
Can numb gums recede?

well if the only symptom ur having is numbness and ur gums look healthy and ur talking good care of ur teeth .. then u dont have to worry about ur gums receding, but if the blood flow to the area is affected then ur gums might start to recede
but anyways u should know wat caused the paresthesia and for how long have u been having this problem?
i`m a dentist .. u may mail me for additional information

No if your gums are numb that doesn't mean they'll recede unless you stop brushing and flossing.
