My gum has separated from my tooth after wisdom teeth extraction. how do they treat receding gums?

Consult Periodontist: Receding gums can be treated. Consult with a dental specialist periodontist for proper examination/ diagnosis/ treatment planning.

See your dentist: You may have gingivitis. Have a thorough exam from your happy dental home.

See dentist: You should return to your dentist to have a periodontal exam and then the various treatment options can be explained to you.

Be patient: The amount of time it takes for complete healing will depend on the size of the original wound and complexity of the surgery. The process may take 2-3 month. If concerned see your dentist for post-op examination.

Healing?: Depending upon the severity of the extraction- above the tissue, partial gum or bone impacted, full gum/bone impaction, and how the tooth was extracted, the surrounding tissue may take awhile to heal or possibly heal with the tissue being at a lower level. See a dentist/oral suregeon if questions.
