Normally need help: Depending upon the reasons that you have gum recession, normally the tissue will not grow back on its own. A gum specialist, periodontist, is usually the best dr. To see.

Probably not: There are some regenerative techniques practiced by periodontists (gum specialists), but generally once tissue is lost it's too late. It's important, however, to see a periodontist to treat the cause of the recession to assure that it doesn't progress.
