Perio evalution: See your local dentist to determine the cause and how best to prevent and/or minimize further recession. It is usually related to poor oral hygiene, poor or inadequate brushing and flossing techniques, stress, malocclusion, and para-functional habits. At your age it is easily remedied with your cooperation.
