Is there a way to grow back gums on teeth?

Question

Hi, my gums are dying and near one of my teeth there is very little gum and the tooth may fall out and i am only 14. It is my last tooth.

Does anyone know what i can do to keep it healthy and help it grow a bit more.

It doesent sound possible but I may as well ask.

Thank you very much

Answer 1

I don't really know exactly what you are describing, but gums don't die, they recede. I hope when you say it's your last tooth that it is your last tooth baby tooth and not the last tooth in your mouth. But to answer your question, yes you can grow gums back on teeth if the conditions are optimal. It is called a free gingival or connective tissure graft. I don't really know the situation of what you are trying to describe, so get someone to take you to the dentist to look at it if it is a concern.

Answer 2

YOU MAY BE DESCRIBING THE LATE LOSS OF A PRIMARY MOLAR. AT 14 THIS MAY INDEED BE LIKELY.
A GOOD THING TO DO IS TO SEE A DENTIST AND ASK HIM/HER YOUR EXACT CONCERNS.
