after a tooth has been pulled gums will recede, by false one i dont know if you mean a bridge, or an implant, if a bridge, the gum will still recede where the tooth was pulled, it shouldnt around remaining teeth, if implant, speak with your dentist... i have heard of some, with implants , that have to have the gum "built up",,,, either way, speaking with a dentis is a good idea,,,,,making sure to brush your gums towards your teeth, up on the bottem,,, down on the top, is good, dont go across on them , or brush the opposite way as you brush your teeth as this does push the gums away from the teeth, more so as you get older

there is not much to do unfortunately. i am assuming you a freaking out about this because it is a front tooth. the only option i can think of would require you to have the bridge redone, unless the dentist can get it out without cutting it off. there is porcelain that is tissue colored to match your gums that can be put on it to make it look like there is tissue there. its called tissue tint porcelain you can request that it be done if you want to go that route.
